This work intends to hybridize a solar field into the current waste to energy
gasification power plant in Boa Esperança in Minas Gerais. The gasification
process converts municipal solid waste to usable synthesis gas for electrical
production. This current operation of waste to energy power plant removes waste
accumulated from the landfill site. It recovers an extensive area for future solar field
installation due to this available space without any waste in the future. The design
of the planned solar field comprises the parabolic trough concentrating systems.
The aim of the solar design is to provide ongoing heat to the power block with direct
storage tanks. The solar field operation is simulated by the development of a Matlab
computer program based one dimensional implicit difference method with energy
balance approach of an evacuated receiver. The validation of present model was
done by comparing the outlet temperatures of simulation results and the
experimental data obtained by Sandia National Laboratories. Moreover, the mass
flow rate is regulated through the field to make sure that the outlet temperature from
the solar collector is kept as close to the desired 390 Celsius Degree as possible. To accomplish
the main purpose of the work, many different computational models with start-up
and full operation stages are suggested for different clear days along the typical
meteorological year of the city Boa Esperança. Eventually, a cloud day with a real
meteorological data was chosen for a computational model of the solar field
performance. All results of the real day operation are used to improve the computer
program of the present work. These results are useful for future solar field design.
