Modeling in TRNSYS of a single effect evaporation system powered by a Rankine cycle. In: International Conference on Desalination for the Environment, Clean Water and Energy, Barcelona, Espanha, 23-26 Abril, 2012, 15p.http://hdl.handle.net/10400.9/1567The paper presents an analysis of a Single Effect Evaporation (SEE) system as a pre-study to the feasibility of concentrated solar power plants (CSP) powering desalination units for cogeneration of water and electricity. An algorithm to model a SEE system in steady-state operation was made and is described in this work. This algorithm was implemented in TRNSYS environment, and a simple analysis was conducted of a SEE system powered by a Rankine cycle used in CSP plants.engDesalinationSingle effect evaporationTRNSYSSimulationconference object
