Abstract
In present study, technical performance and cost of the solar tower system with the capacities of 10 and 20 MW for Mut district of Mersin were investigated. The solar tower systems with various capacities weredesigned by using SAM (System Advisor Model) program theoretically. For SAM program analysis, TMY3 solar radiation data of Mut district of Mersin located at the coordinates of 33.4° E 36.7° N was used. For the capacities of 10 and 20 MW, the energy generated by this system was determined and the cost of solar tower system was calculated for this system with the capacity of 10 and 20 MW, the number of heliostats was determined as 580 and 1115, respectively and the layout plan of heliostat was generated. Moreover, the first law and the second law of thermodynamic were applied. Energy and exergy efficiencies were determined.
