Medium temperature solar thermal energy is a renewable energy source that converts solar energy into thermal energy, used in applications requiring temperatures between 100 and 400 degrees Celsius. In general, medium temperature solar thermal energy systems use collectors different from those used in low temperature systems, typically being more complex and efficient.
Medium temperature solar thermal energy harvesting systems are used for industrial applications. They are different from low temperature systems, which provide domestic hot water, and high temperature systems, which produce steam and generate electrical energy. Medium temperature systems are the focus of this passage, with two types being described:
Medium temperature systems Among solar thermal-electric pow plants, r those operating onmedium temperature cycles and using line focussing parabolic collectors (figure 3) at temperature a of about 400°C have proved to the be most cost effective andsuccessful sofar.
Thethermodynamic cycles used for solar thermal power generation be broadly can classified as low, medium andhigh temperature cycles. Low temperature cycles work at maximum temperatures of about 100°C, medium temperature cycles work at maximum temperatures up to 400°C, while high temperature cycles work at empera- tures above 400°C.
There are three main uses of solar thermal systems: Mechanical energy using a Stirling engine. There are three types of solar thermal technologies: High- temperature plants are used to produce electricity working with temperatures above 500 ºC (773 kelvin). Medium-temperature plants work with temperatures between 100 and 300 degrees Celsius.
Solar thermal energy is a renewable energy source that converts solar energy into thermal energy. In low temperature systems, flat collectors are typically used. However, for temperatures above 80 degrees Celsius, flat collectors practically no longer have any performance and other solar concentration systems must be used instead.
