NEW WAYS OF RENEWABLE SOURCES UTILIZATION FOR ELECTRICITY PRODUCTION
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Nowadays, different solutions for increasing energy production are investigated in the world. One of the ways is utilization of renewable energy sources in cogeneration devices – combined production of electricity and heat in one device, with a high overall efficiency. The article deals with principle of hot-air engine, its basic division and use in combined production of heat and electricity from biomass. The basic principle of engine is conversion of heat into mechanical energy, which is subsequently used for production of electricity. In the contribution is presented Stirling engine, which is driven by thermal energy from a concentrating solar collector and from biomass boiler.
