Studying The Collector Performance Of Updraft Solar Chimney Power Plant
In the shadow of increasing energy consumption, renewable energy is the best choicefor a sustainable environment. The solar chimney power plant (SCPP) is a new technology, many researchers are paying their attention to improve its performance. In this study, experimental and numerical studies were used to understand the effect of the collector geometry on the SCPP performance. The SCPP prototype under our investigation is installed in Aswan city, its chimney height is 20m, its diameter is 1 m and the collector is a square which has a side length of 28.5m. Three dimensional CFD simulations were made to calculate the temperature and velocity distribution inside two different shapes of SCPP collector. The conclusion is that the square shaped collector achieved higher output power than the circular collector by 7.6 % at the same surface area exposed to solar radiation.
