Numerical modeling of solar ponds
Giestas, Margarida Canedo; Milhazes, Jorge P.; Pina, H.L.A SGSP is a basin of water where solar energy is trapped due to an artificially imposed salinity gradient. In a SGSP three zones can be identified: the surface and bottom zones that are both convective and an intermediate zone in between which is intended to be non-convective. This zone acts as a transparent insulation and allows the storage of solar energy at the bottom where it is available for use. A numeric...
Thermal energy production by a dual solar pound
Giestas, Margarida Canedo; Joyce, António; Milhazes, Jorge P.; Loureiro, DavidA Salt Gradient Solar Pond (SGSP) is a salt water basin that collects and stores solar energy. These devices rely on the existence of a non-convective zone (NCZ) that functions as a transparent thermal insulation zone, created by a salt gradient. Salinity and temperature gradients in this zone can give rise to double diffusive problems that can decrease the insulation properties of this zone. The stability of t...
