Design and Construction Experiences of 10kWe Dish-type Solar Thermal Power Generation System

Dish형 집광장치 이용 10kWe급 태양열 발전시스템 설계 및 시공 사례

KIER has been running a demonstration project for 10kWe solar thermal power generation. the project is to build and operate the first solar thermal power generation system in Korea. For concentrating solar thermal energy $40m^2$ dish type concentrator was adapted and a stirling engine is going to be integrated to the system for power production. At the moment building the dish concentrator including mirror and sun tracking system was completed and it's performance are being closely evaluated. This paper will introduce some detailed designs and construction procedures which we have experienced so far.
