Description
The Computer Controlled Solar/Heat Source Vapour Turbine, “HTVC”, has been designed to provide an easily understood vapour power plant and to demonstrate, on a lab scale, the ability to produce shaft power from Solar Radiation.
It is a bench-top unit, using refrigerant and operating on the Rankine Cycle from a hot water heat source within the unit. Mechanical output is from a single stage impulse turbine and heat is rejected to a water cooled condenser.
This unit includes all the necessary instrumentation and sensors for controlling and measuring the most representative parameters.
Optional Solar Pannels and Installation Kit, “HTVC/KIT”, to enable the unit to operate from solar energy.
This Computer Controlled Unit is supplied with the EDIBON Computer Control System (SCADA), and includes: The unit itself + a Control Interface Box + a Data Acquisition Board + Computer Control, Data Acquisition and Data Management Software Packages, for controlling the process and all parameters involved in the process.
