The Brayton cycle is widely recognized as a key power cycle in the third-generation solar thermal power generation technology. Leveraging the strengths of artificial neural network methods for importance evaluation and quantitative analysis, this research employs a control variable approach to identify critical parameters, including turbine inlet temperature and compression ratio, from a range of operating parameters. In this method, the significance of parameters increases as the R2 value decreases. Notably, when excluding these key parameters, the R2 values fall to 0.57 and 0.64, respectively, both are lower than other operating parameters. Furthermore, the quantitative analysis of output power in the Brayton cycle yields exceptional results, achieving an R2 value exceeding 0.999. The R2 values for thermal efficiency and input heat are 0.992 and 0.988, respectively. Finally, the multi-objective optimization results suggest optimal settings of 500 ℃ for turbine inlet temperature and 2.19 for the compression ratio, corresponding to a thermal efficiency of 46.58%, output power of 100.97 kJ/kg, and input heat of –176.5 kJ/kg. This study offers valuable insights for the operational efficiency and performance assessment of the Brayton cycle in solar thermal power plants.
