Research Progress of Integrated Solar Chimney Power Plant System coupled with Low-Temperature Heat Source

Summary

Surveys solar chimney power plants combined with low-temperature heat sources such as industrial flue gas, hot wastewater and geothermal water. The authors conclude that the added heat improves output, makes generation steadier and less sensitive to the environment, and reduces thermal pollution. They suggest future work on layout optimisation, smaller systems, combining several heat sources, and economics.
