Abstract A novel solar driven hybrid system composed of a concentrated solar collector, thermionic generator and thermoelectric device is proposed. Thermoelectric device uses the waste heat of the thermionic generator to generate further power and cooling. Analytical explanations for the power output and efficiency of the thermionic generator, thermoelectric device and hybrid system are investigated. In order to investigate the design parameters affecting proposed hybrid system performance such as solar irradiance density, anode work function, heat conductivity, ratio of resistances and cooled space temperature sensitivity analysis is discussed. Two different scenarios are considered: the former is assumed the values of climatic data constant and impractical but the latter considers the values of climatic data practically for the data of five different cities in Asia. The results show that since the proposed hybrid system performance depends on the TIG, the increase in ratio of resistances does not have a significant effect on the efficiency and power of the process. The highest and lowest average useful power produced by a solar collector is related to Riyadh and Inchon, respectively. The best optical performance is related to Riyadh (average daily optical efficiency = 67.5%).

新型太阳能辅助热离子发生器与热电装置混合系统的参数化设计与性能评价

摘要 提出了一种由聚光太阳能集热器、热离子发生器和热电装置组成的新型太阳能驱动混合系统。热电装置利用热离子发生器的废热进一步发电和冷却。研究了热离子发生器、热电装置和混合系统的功率输出和效率的分析解释。为了研究影响拟议混合系统性能的设计参数，例如太阳辐照度密度、阳极功函数、热导率、电阻比和冷却空间温度敏感性分析。考虑了两种不同的场景：前者假设气候数据的值不变且不切实际，但后者实际上考虑了亚洲五个不同城市数据的气候数据值。结果表明，由于所提出的混合系统性能取决于 TIG，电阻比的增加对过程的效率和功率没有显着影响。太阳能收集器产生的最高和最低平均有用功率分别与利雅得和仁川有关。最佳光学性能与利雅得有关（平均每日光学效率 = 67.5%）。太阳能收集器产生的最高和最低平均有用功率分别与利雅得和仁川有关。最佳光学性能与利雅得有关（平均每日光学效率 = 67.5%）。太阳能收集器产生的最高和最低平均有用功率分别与利雅得和仁川有关。最佳光学性能与利雅得有关（平均每日光学效率 = 67.5%）。
