Solar Thermal Dish Storage System Project: A Novel Receiver Experiment Model, Forrest Osborn Jan 2021

Solar Thermal Dish Storage System Project: A Novel Receiver Experiment Model, Forrest Osborn

Undergraduate Research Posters 2021

Solar energy utilizes sunlight to generate electricity but inefficiencies in energy storage limits this technology. Transferring sunlight into thermal energy can contribute to solve this problem. The goal of this study was to determine feasibility of a heat exchanger to be used with an existing solar parabolic dish. For this purpose, a heat gun was used to measure the thermal properties of a novel receiver design. This system was used to analyze different receiver configurations for a copper tube containing water as a heat transfer fluid. The inlet and outlet water temperatures and the effect of HTF flow rate were …

Understanding The Global Energy Crisis, Eugene D. Coyle, Richard A. Simmons Mar 2014

Understanding The Global Energy Crisis, Eugene D. Coyle, Richard A. Simmons

Purdue University Press Books

We are facing a global energy crisis caused by world population growth, an escalating increase in demand, and continued dependence on fossil-based fuels for generation. It is widely accepted that increases in greenhouse gas concentration levels, if not reversed, will result in major changes to world climate with consequential effects on our society and economy. This is just the kind of intractable problem that Purdue University’s Global Policy Research Institute seeks to address in the Purdue Studies in Public Policy series by promoting the engagement between policy makers and experts in fields such as engineering and technology.

Major steps forward …
