I have designed a PTC power plant.
I sued LPC(Linear Parabolic Collector), type 536, in order to get heat before its working fluid passes through the steam boiler.
However, when I simulate this cycle, I have 2 problems about Type 536.
1. Inlet temperature of Type 536(or outlet temperature of Condensate pump-2) is higher than outlet temperature of Type 536
: The reason why I have used Type 536 is to get some heat from solar thermal energy.
But its temperature decreases by passing through Type 536. I wish to know a reason of this result.
2. Outlet temperature of Type 536 is constant, not variable by time, even though I use a data file.
: I expected variable plot of Type 536's outlet temperature when I designed this cycle cause I cited a data file.
Could I know reasons for this 2 results...?
I want to get a logical result with my TRNSYS trial.
Thanks
