    Abstract : Transitioning the industrial sector’s energy system to renewable sources is crucial to reduce climate change. There is no exception for China, currently having the highest absolute levels of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the world. READ MORE

  2. 7. Evaluation of Convection Suppressor for Concentrating Solar Collectors with a Parabolic Trough

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

    Author : Fanny Nyberg; [2018]
    Keywords : concentrating solar collector; parabolic trough; solar power; CST; convection; thermal loss; koncentrerande solfångare; paraboliskt tråg; solenergi; CST; konvektion; termisk förlust;

    Abstract : Absolicon Solar Collector AB in Härnösand, Sweden, develops concentrating solar collectors with a parabolic trough. In the solar collector trough, there is thermal loss due to convection. A convection suppressor was made and used as a method to reduce thermal loss due to convection in the trough. READ MORE

  3. 8. Concentrating Collector for Torsång District Heating System

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Artem Filatov; [2018]
    Keywords : Concentrating solar collector; Absolicon; Arcon; Heatstore; flat-plate collector; Borlange; Torsang; Sweden; parabolic trough; thermal collector;

    Abstract : In this thesis report for Dalarna University in Borlange and Absolicon company the study of a possibility to add an array of concentrating solar collectors to a Torsång district heating system was done. The whole idea of this work was to make a simulation of this kind of system, trying to get 15-20% of solar fraction, and make an economical evaluation. READ MORE

  4. 9. Solar Concentrating Steam Generation in Alberta, Canada

    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the context of climate change the world is facing an increasing need to become more environmentally sustainable, and a concerted effort to use renewable energy is required in order to decrease emissions, meet climate goals and prepare for the post-oil era. Solar energy is an area with great potential, and developments in solar energy technologies have increased rapidly. READ MORE

  5. 10. Solar Heat in Industrial Processes : Integration of Parabolic Trough Solar Collectors Dairy Plants and Pharmaceutical Plants

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

    Author : Hassan Al-Hasnawi; [2016]
    Keywords : Solar heat; SHIP; Solar steam; parabolic trough collectors; solar heat in industrial processes;

    Abstract : The industry sector accounts for a high share of the final energy consumption, with industries in EU-28accounting for a quarter of the final energy demand. Studies also show that 45 % of the industrial heatdemand in EU-27 is in a temperature range that can be supplied with present day solar collectors. READ MORE
