Principles of solar gas turbines for generating electricity
Madhlopa, A.

Principles of solar gas turbines for generating electricity[electronic resource] /by Amos Madhlopa, Richard Nkhoma. - Second edition. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2025. - xxix, 353 p. :ill. (chiefly color), digital ;24 cm. - Green energy and technology,1865-3537. - Green energy and technology..

Introduction to Solar Gas Turbines -- Gas Turbine Fuels and Fuel Systems -- Solar Radiation Resource -- Main Components of Solar Gas Turbines -- Thermodynamic Cycles of Solar Gas Turbines -- Configurations of Solar Gas Turbines -- Theory of Gas Turbine Design -- Simulation of Solar Gas Turbines -- Simulation of Solar Gas Turbines -- Economic Performance of Solar Gas Turbines -- Environmental Impact and Sustainability of Solar Gas Turbines.

This book, now in its second expanded and updated edition, is dedicated to solar gas turbines, providing fundamental knowledge and state-of-the-art developments in the field. A gas turbine is a heat engine in which a mixture of fuel and air is burned in a chamber that is an integral part of the flow circuit of the working fluid. The burnt gas mixture expands and turns the turbine, which can be connected to a generator for electricity production. Solar gas turbines offer an important alternative to conventional gas turbines driven by non-renewable, polluting fossil fuels such as diesel or natural gas. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the topic as well as numerous illustrations. The second edition provides step-by-step linchpins from fundamentals to advanced concepts of solar gas turbines. The book features methods of designing and testing of this green technology. It includes economic and environmental considerations of solar gas turbines that are crucial for sustainable energy production. In addition, worldwide case studies on the development of solar gas turbines are presented in this book and each chapter contains worked examples.
