Full Description
This book, now in its second expanded and updated edition, is dedicated to solar gas turbines, providing fundamental knowledge and state-of-the-art developments in the field. A gas turbine is a heat engine in which a mixture of fuel and air is burned in a chamber that is an integral part of the flow circuit of the working fluid. The burnt gas mixture expands and turns the turbine, which can be connected to a generator for electricity production. Solar gas turbines offer an important alternative to conventional gas turbines driven by non-renewable, polluting fossil fuels such as diesel or natural gas. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the topic as well as numerous illustrations.
The second edition provides step-by-step linchpins from fundamentals to advanced concepts of solar gas turbines. The book features methods of designing and testing of this green technology. It includes economic and environmental considerations of solar gas turbines that are crucial for sustainable energy production. In addition, worldwide case studies on the development of solar gas turbines are presented in this book and each chapter contains worked examples.
