Abstract

The optimal system operating temperature and the overall system efficiency of anirreversible solar heat engine have been determined. The solar collector heat loss is byconvection or radiation and the heat engine is internally and externally irreversible. It isconcluded that the system operating temperature and the overall system efficiency depend on theinternal irreversibility of the heat engine.
