ANALYSIS AND REPRESENTATION OF REQUIREMENT TRACEABILITY

The renewable energy system is the foremost alternative for power generation as the energy crisis is increasing and the fossil fuel reserves are depleting. Out of many renewable energy systems the solar thermal or solar PV system is the optimum solution. Our Purpose is to design the power system based upon Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) and PV for an efficient electric power production for the domestic purpose. Thus calling it Hybrid CSP system, we have designed the CSP system using the Stirling engine which is operated by the thermal input collected by a parabolic thermal concentrator. The mechanical output of the Stirling engine is synchronized with the electric generator to produce the electric power. Beside it the 2-D solar tracker is used to align the concentrator exacting with sun to get maximum thermal efficiency. The efficiency of the engine is improved by the parameters like heating and cooling temperature, fluid pressure inside the cylinder, volume swept by piston and type of fluid used. Beside CSP, a traditional PV system is hybrid with CSP to power a common load. The system is unique in this purpose that it requires no external power but its tracker is operated by PV section
