摘要
In order to study the effects of extra external reflector on solar steam generation, solar energy received under different seasons, azimuth angles and inclination angles of the reflector are calculated. The results show that the optimized azimuth angle of the mirror is -90° in spring and winter, and 180° in summer and autumn. The optimized inclination angle of the mirror is less than 25° in spring and winter, and greater than 25° in summer and autumn. The useful energy per unit area at 10:00~16:00 increases by 28.5% with the mirror enhanced heat collection in typical sunny days (the average solar irradiation is 850 W∙m-2). The steam generation rate increases from 15.68 mL∙min-1 to 27.79 mL∙min-1 per unit time, and the average steam yield increases by 77.23%. When the solar irradiance reaches more than 1000 W∙m-2, the maximum steam rate of the device with the external reflector is 2.5 times higher than that without the external reflector. The daily steam capacity increases from 8.18 kg to 12.6 kg. © 2020, Editorial Board of "Journal of Chemical Engineering of Chinese Universities". All right reserved.
