TY - NEWS TI - Effect of concentration areas in sensitive analysis of a hybrid solar Brayton cycle AU - Moreno Gamboa, Faustino AU - Espinel Blanco, E AU - Florez Solano, E AB - A simple hybrid solar thermal Brayton cycle plant thermodynamic model is evaluated in northern Colombia, where the maximum solar radiation values in the country are found. The model considers the different irreversibilities of the cycle and is coupled to a model for estimating direct solar radiation as a complementary energy source for the plant. The stability in the operation of the cycle is determined by a combustion chamber that complements the energy supply. As a result of the analysis, this work presents the sensitivity analysis of different operating parameters of the plant as a function of the areas of the concentration ratio of the solar system when the contribution of this system is maximum. It is observed that fuel consumption is reduced by 34.7% when increasing the concentration ratio between 200 and 700.
