Aplicación del Software SOLEEC para Diseñar Colectores Solares de Canal Parabólico
2013
The present work shows some applications of the software SOLEEC, which is used to get the best geometric designing features for Parabolic Trough Collectors (PTC) based on the receiver tube external diameter. Users can choose different manufacturing materials among the most used for these collectors and then make a thermal evaluation for a PTC design. Thermal evaluation is based on solar radiation for a specific place on Earth computed by Hottel’s model or providing solar radiation measured data, the latitude and longitude of the place in question. Results of goemetrical features such as aperture, focal distance and colector’s length, as well as thermal caracteristics such as heat gain, heat lost, mass flow rate, reciever and glazing tube temperatures and thermal and optical efficiences are presented in a friendly interface of the software. An studio was carried out for Monterrey and the versatility of the software was proved.
