Abstract

In this research, a parabolic solar collector is investigated and analysed in a solar combined cooling, heating and power cycle by adding porous materials in five stages. This research focuses on the use of flat plate collectors in solar CCHP. Following this study, the exergoeconomic analysis of the system was performed for financial analysis and calculation of the payback period. The average enhancement of collector's efficiency and solar CCHP cycle using porous media is 16% and 11% respectively. By using flat solar collector fully filled porous media, the cost of the cogeneration cycle reduces up to 38% in comparison with other CCHP.
