• Increasing in global energy demand and environmental
concerns have resulted in the development of various energy saving measures during the past few decades. • In recent years, the concept of integrating thermal systems with a renewable and sustainable energy source, especially solar energy, has been increasingly attractive. • For greater incidence of sunlight, CSP(Concentrating Solar Panel) plants use mirrors or lenses as concentrators. This concentrated light heats up the working fluid, which in turn heats steam in a boiler via a heat exchanger, to run a load. EXISTING SYSTEM:
• The existing system is aimed at identifying and presenting the
facts pertaining to recent developments in the solar thermal field and the integration of a variety of TES system with solar energy in order to cater to the heating requirements for different applications. • These systems effectively utilize the available sunshine in the solar-dominated regions and help reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and carbon footprints. PROPOSED SYSTEM:
• Integrating a solar energy conversion system with thermal
energy storage (TES) ensures a smooth output, even taking care of low energy density. • We are using lenses to propagate the sunlight into single axis • With the help of this we can able to heat the water but it takes some time to do this action. BLOCK DIAGRAM: BLOCK DIAGRAM EXPLANATION:
• Solar energy is get collected and pointed to single axis because
solar rays get united and if pointed in some object heat will be more. • Black box contains water and its get warm with the pointed sun-rays. • After sometimes its get warmed, steam will produce and with the help of steam we can able to produce electric energy. • The generated energy is used to given to some load like bulb. HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS:
• Parabolic lenses. • Black box. • LED • Power generating setup. ADVANTAGES:
• Low Maintenance Costs.
• Technology Development. • No Fuel Cost. • No Pollution and Global Warming Effects. APPLICATION:
• Bulb. • Fan. REFERENCES:
