Abstract

A 310kW steam generation system by the heat utilization of mesothermal solar was built and the thermodynamic model of main parts-solar collector and heat transformer were developed. In different conditions, the impact of solar radiation intensity, recycle ratio of condensate water and ambient temperature on thermal efficiency and heating power was investigated and the relationship of collecting temperature between system property was discussed. The result shows that the system property enhances significantly with the rise of solar radiation intensity. Recycling condensate water could escalate heating power while having little effect on thermal efficiency. The system property enhances first and then drops with the rise of ambient temperature. The system has the optimum collecting temperature which increases with the rise of solar radiation intensity and ambient temperature.
