Özet:

 In this study, the design, manufacture and thermal performance analysis of a Fresnel lens driven hot watersteam generator are presented. The designed system is suitable for domestic and industrial hot watersteam usage and can be easily scaled up to meet different capacity needs. In the first step of the research, thermal behaviour of the cast plate heat exchanger driven by a Fresnel lens with a concentration ratio of 100 is investigated at different working fluid velocities 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 ms and at different absorber surface temperatures 700, 800, 900 and 1000 C. Outlet temperature of working fluid from the cast plate heat exchanger is determined through a 3D CFD model for each case. The capacity of the steam generator for different operating times h  1, 2 and 3 hours is also evaluated. The highest working fluid temperature at the outlet of heat exchanger is 914.8 C for T_cp 1000 C and V_wf  0.6 ms. On the other hand, the lowest temperature is observed as 424.7 C for T_cp  700 C and V_wf  2.0 ms. The steam capacity of the system for h  3 hours is determined as 1696.5 and 508.9 kg in the best V_wf  2.0 ms and worst cases V_wf  0.6 ms, respectively.
