INTRODUCTION• This is an Industry Defined Project (IDP) for : Performance

and exergy analysis of Parabolic Dish Solar Concentrator (PDSC) installed at Universal Medicap Limited, Vadodara.

• The PDSCs are used to increase the temperature of thermic fluid up to required level.

• At UML, there are two systems installed for the heating of thermic fluid : – Biomass-fuelled Boiler System – Megawatt Dish Solar Concentrators, primarily for : – vulcanization of rubber for making caps for bottling of medicines– producing “water for injection (wfi) grade water” for washing

the rubber caps.

• The company plans to use solar concentrators on a regular basis, keeping biomass fuelled boiler as a standby for the solar concentrator system.

• A group of four students of the previous batch had done their project on : “ PERFORMANCE MONITORING OF MNRE SPONSORED PARABOLIC DISH TYPE SOLAR CONCENTRATORS AT UNIVERSAL MEDICAP UML, VADODARA.”

• The present work is a continuation of that work. It will include study and then experimentally working on the Performance Analysis Model developed by them to check its validity.

• Further, an Exergy Analysis Model will be prepared for Solar Parabolic Dish Concentrators and experiments will be carried out on it.

EFFICIENCY

EFFICIENCY

STEPS FOR CALCULATING EFFICIENCY :THERMAL ANALYSIS OF PDSC :• Collector thermal efficiency :

ƞc= Qu/Qs• The optical efficiency ƞo:

ƞo= Λρταγcosθƞo= Λρταγ

• The total heat loss rate Ql :Ql = Qlr + Qlc + Qlk.

• The expected efficiency of the concentrator system :Ƞexpected = Qr – (Qcond +Qconv + Qrad ) / Qs

• The actual efficiency of the concentrator system :Quseful = m Cp (Tout – Tin) Ƞactual = Quseful / Qs

EXERGY ANALYSIS CALCULATIONEXERGY ANALYSIS OF PDSC:• Exergy balance equation: ∑ Ein - ∑Eout - ∑Eloss - ∑Echange- ∑Edest =0• The exergy accompanying an incompressible fluid flow : Ein,f= mCp(Tin-Ta-Taln(Tin/Ta))+m(∆p/)• The outlet exergy rate includes only the exergy rate of the outlet fluid flow: Ef,out= mCp(Tout-Ta-Taln(Tout/Ta))+m(∆p/)• the exergy that is accumulated by fluid flow through the receiver and is

expressed as: ∑Egain =∑Ef,out -∑Ein,f

• Using Petela’s approach of defining the exergy of solar radiation, the exact exergy solar radiation :

Ein,r= IbȠpAa

EXERGY ANALYSIS CALCULATION(CONTI….)

• The exergy efficiency is the ratio of the gain exergy to solar radiation exergy expressed as:

ȠE=Egain/Ein,r

OR

ȠE=1-(∑Eloss-∑Echange-∑Edes)/Ein,r

exergy leakage rate out to the surroundings due to optical errors and heat transfer to ambient in a solar receiver:

∑Eloss=∑El,opt - ∑El,th

optical exergy rate : ∑El,opt=(1–Ƞo)IbȠpAa

Thermal exergy loss: ∑El,th=UlAr(Tr-Ta)2/Tr

EXERGY ANALYSIS CALCULATION(CONTI…)

• Under steady state conditions, ∑Echange = 0

• Exergy destruction is caused by irreversibilities in the system and there are two ways of exergy destruction in solar collectors:

The exergy destruction due to pressure drop : Edes,∆p=Ta(m∆p/)((ln(Tour/Tin))/(Tout–Tin)) The exergy destruction due to heat absorption: Edes,abs=ȠoIbAaTa((1/Tr)-(1/Ts)) The exergy destroyed due to heat transfer by conduction :

Edes,cond=mCpTa(ln(Tout/Tin)–(Tout–Tin)Tr)

• The exergy efficiency :

CONCLUSION• The methodology for performance analysis of

PDSC considers the computation of the thermal efficiency of the system. Various losses are also computed and the extent of unaccounted losses is determined.

• A comparison of the expected and actual performance is done and analysis of the difference is carried out to rule out avoidable losses, leading to lowering of the performance of the system.

CONCLUSION(CONTI….)

• Exergy Model has been developed• Exergy Analysis Experimentation, along with

Performance Analysis Experimentation is going on.
