The paper discusses a solar-aided power generation system which effectively promotes the high efficiency and low cost utilization of solar energy. The study focuses on using an annular Fresnel solar concentrator system to generate solar steam to replace the extraction steam of the turbine. Simulation and analysis of the thermo-economic index were performed using Matlab, showing that the SAPG system is energy-saving and the small disturbance scope is related to the quantity of the extraction steam and evaluation index.
A solar-aided power generation (SAPG) system effectively promotes the high efficiency and low cost utilization of solar energy. In this paper, the SAPG system is represented by conventional coal-fired units and an annular Fresnel solar concentrator (AFSC) system. The annular Fresnel solar concentrator system is adopted to generate solar steam to replace the extraction steam of the turbine. According to the steam-water matrix equation and improved Flugel formula, the variable conditions simulation and analysis of the thermo-economic index were proposed by Matlab. Furthermore, in order to obtain the range of small disturbance, the method of partial replacement is used, that is, the extraction steam of the turbine is replaced from 0 to 100% with a step size of 20%. In this work, a SAPG system is proposed and its thermo-economic index and small disturbance scope are analyzed. The results show that the SAPG system is energy-saving, and the application scope of small disturbance is related to the quantity of the extraction steam and evaluation index.
