Abstract

A biomass and solar integrated system for multigeneration of useful outputs, in which two renewable energy sources are combined to produce multiple outputs (e.g., power, cooling, hot water, heated air), is developed and presented. Energy and exergy analyses are used to assess the performance of the cycle, and the effects of various system parameters on energy and exergy efficiencies of the overall system and its subsystems are examined. The overall energy and exergy efficiencies of the system are found to be 66.5% and 39.7% respectively. Furthermore, the effect is also investigated of reference-environment temperature on energy and exergy efficiencies for the system, when operated only on biomass and solar energy.
