Replacing of Steam Bleeding in a Steam Power Plant by Using Solar Energy


Abstract in English

In this paper the use of parabolic trough solar field to rise feed water temperature completely or partially according to brightness of sun is studied, in this way steam bleeding could be avoided variably. Results are analyzed according to Damascus solar and climate data, efficiency is increased about 1.6 % and power raised 6 %.
