Numerical simulation of liquid vapor flow optimization in solar steam systems
摘要
The scientists and researchers are paying close attention to energy utilization and environmental protection, and solar steam systems are showing the potential to replace traditional coal-fired research. This article studies how to use computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to optimize the solar steam system. By optimizing the working environment and conditions, we studied factors such as flow, pressure and heat transfer to improve energy output and overall system performance. The results show that this CFD method and optimized flow pattern can increase steam production and have the opportunity to provide stable steam output for industrial applications. At an inlet velocity of approximately 0.0024 m/s, the average exit steam temperature is 416.47K (equivalent to 143.32 ℃), each collector tube can produce approximately 62.33 m3 of steam per day. In addition, this article is also the first paper that can combine CFD simulation results with industrial design and actual factory profit. This interdisciplinary research method is conducive to inspiring the application of solar steam technology in future industrial cases. Based on the research methods of this article, scientists can better understand the use of science and technology to set up future factories and obtain possible economic returns.
