Optimization of Solar Pond Equipped with Thermo Siphon using MATLAB
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
Solar pond is a device which entraps the impinging solar radiation and stores it as thermal energy in its salty layers. Simple salt gradient solar pond consists of three basic layers: lower convective zone, non-convective zone and last is upper convective zone. In present study a simple working experimental setup of salt gradient solar pond was fabricated equipped with thermo siphon heat exchanger of capacity of 20 l in Sobhasaria Group of Institutions, Sikar (Rajasthan) with locally available materials. Different salt concentration layers were made and Salinity gradient was established successfully. Three day field experiment was conducted by considering a 1m3 solar pond. Three different combinations of salt concentrations were considered to perform the study. Model equations are developed for density and temperature variation in solar pond by MATLAB and validated with MOGA optimization technique
