Abstract
Brazil has a great potential for electricity generation from the energy from the sun due to the high incidence of solar radiation over much of its territory, especially in the Northeast. Due to low energy conversion efficiency associated with the relatively low temperatures compared with the traditional thermal generation, it is necessary to review some assumptions of Rankine cycle using steam to the use of low temperature energy available is best used mainly in small-scale power generation. Thus, the use of the Organic Rankine cycle offers the possibility to use low temperature energy, as the energy available from the solar heating system. Thus, in this study the coupling of an Organic Rankine cycle with solar heating system for power generation will be analyzed. Types of fluids and operating the Rankine cycle configurations best suited for the coupling in Organic solar heating systems are analyzed. The thermodynamic analysis and exergy analysis will be used in the analysis settings.
