Research paper thumbnail of Optimum Height and Tilt Angle of the Solar Receiver for a 30 kWe Solar Tower Power Plant for the Electricity Production in the Sahelian Zone

International Journal of Photoenergy, 2021

This work investigated the prediction of the optimum height and tilt angle of the solar receiver ... more This work investigated the prediction of the optimum height and tilt angle of the solar receiver of a 30 kWe solar tower power plant for the electricity production in the Sahelian zone. Initially, the solar field is sized to determine the total reflecting surface area of the mirrors and the number of heliostats. A PS10-like radially staggered heliostat field is used to design the heliostat layout in the field using a Matlab code. The concentrated solar flux at the input of the receiver was determined using Soltrace software by the Monte Carlo ray tracing (MCRT) method. The sizing results show that the total reflecting surface area is 350 m2 for an optical efficiency of 76.4% and a reference DNI of 600 W/m2. The solar field layout indicates 175 heliostats of 2 m2 surface area and 1.5 m height each. The simulation results show that the optimum height and tilt angle of the solar receiver are 26 m and 65°, respectively.

Thermodynamic analysis, Mean Line Method, Ansys Blade Gen, Ansys CFX Turbo Grid and Ansys CFX solver were used to do the conceptual study and numerical analysis. The Mean line design results of solar micro gas turbine give a rotation speed of 115,000 rpm, a pressure ratio of 4, an expansion power equal to 40.28 kW and a compression power equal to 29.97 kW for an air flow of 0.14 kg.s-1 and a turbine inlet temperature equal to 850°C. Total to total turbine efficiency is 80% while compressor polytropic efficiency is 79%. The turbine rotor has 13 blades while that of the compressor consists of 18 main and secondary blades.

Nous avons fait une étude géotechnique, minéralogique, chimique et microscopique de la latérite et de l’argile de Thicky. Les résultats de l’analyse granulométrique de nos matières premières indiquent que l'argile de Thicky est composée principalement d'une fraction de 45% d'argile, 47% de limon et 8 % de sable. La latérite est composée de 8% d'argile, 20 % de limon et 72% de sable. L’analyse minéralogique par diffraction des rayons X (DRX) révèle que notre argile est constituée principalement de quartz (Q), de kaolinite (K), d’illite (I) et de calcite (C) alors que la latérite est constituée de quartz (Q), de kaolinite (K), d’hématite (H) et de calcite (C). Les résultats de la composition chimique montrent que les oxydes les plus abondants dans nos deux matières premières sont SiO2, Al2O3 et Fe2O3 alors que K2O, CaO, MgO, Na2O, TiO2 et P2O5 ne sont prése...
