Sažetak
This paper deals with the numerical simulations of the alternative renewable energy concept. Alternative energy concept is solar power plant with short diffuser which utilizes convective vortices as heat engine, and were finally it is possible to produce mechanical work for the electricity production via turbine. The previously mentioned concept is already developed from the theoretically point of view but before the potential experimental investigations it is crucial to perform numerical simulations. Therefore, this paper presents preliminary results related to the CFD simulations of complex alternative renewable energy system, where certain issues (influential input parameters, parameters that affect vortex genesis and stability, surrounding conditions, etc.) have been addressed in order to provide important base for the experimental approach and to check realistic possibility for realization of considered alternative energy concept.
