Abstract
In the current energy context, where the growing need for energy generation for sustainable way, environmental preservation and the attempt to curb the greenhouse effect that has been intensifying in recent centuries, has increased the demand for alternative and renewable energies such as solar, wind, hydroelectric, biomass and so on. In this context, Brazil, which already has the largest hydroelectric generation in the world, has been developing other technologies, with the production of ethanol, the use of biomass in thermoelectric power plants and the implementation of wind farms. In the field of solar energy, photovoltaic technology have been expanding in the market and solar water heater is already reasonably widespread in residential and commercial buildings in Brazil, but the production of solar energy in large-scale is still scarce in projects and references in Brazil. As a result, this project, proposes to develop a steam power plant with a heat source by a Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems for the production of superheated steam. The aim was to develop a Rankine cycle adapted to replace the steam boiler with a solar concentration tower with a reservoir at the top, and install a field of reflecting mirrors (heliostatos) to concentrate the direct radiation from the sun to the reservoir. In addition, the design of all components of the cycle had be carried out, as well as a thermodynamic of the project.
