Problem 2.85
A concentrating solar collector system, as shown in Fig, P2.85, provides energy by heat transfer
toa power cycle at a rate of 2 MW. The cycle thermal efficiency is 36%. Determine the power
developed by the cycle, in MW. What is the work output, in MWh, for 4380 hours of steady-
state operation? If the work is valued at $0.08/kW-h, what is the total dollar value of the work
output?

The power developed is
Weycie = 1@in = (0.36) (2 MW) = 0.72 MW
For 4380 hours of steady-state operation
