Abstract

The present study investigates the thermal performances of two ISCC configurations which one integrates a parabolic trough collector technology with a conventional combined cycle (ISCC-PTC) and the other one integrates a solar tower power (ISCC-ST) with more attention is paid to solar electric conversion. The results have shown high thermal performances for both ISCC systems while the ISCC-ST exhibits a constant value of 0.21 of solar to electric efficiency conversion for the two selected days but the ISCC-PTC value is 0.16 for the spring day which is 31% lesser than that one of ISCC-ST. This investigation allows concluding that the configuration of ISCC-ST integrating a solar tower power is a good option for integration of solar energy into a conventional combined cycle.
