A novel design of the collector's cover of solar induced convection power plant

Solar Induced Convection Power Plant is a technology of new energy using. It has a very broad perspective. However, the efficiency of the technology not so acceptable. This paper focuses on improving the efficiency of the technology. The thermal physical properties of common glass, polycarbonate and polycarbonate with CO₂ ware compared in this paper to study the superiority and scientificity of polycarbonate with CO₂. The results show that, the heat transfer coefficient of polycarbonate with CO₂ is the smallest so that it has the best effect of warm-keeping. and it can improve the efficiency of the system to large extent. According to the study, the polycarbonate with CO₂ is the best one for solar radiation to go through and it is not easy for Far Infrared ray to do that. Base on the results and other advantages of the polycarbonate with CO₂, we conclude that polycarbonate with CO₂ is the best choice for the material of the slope solar collector cover.
