Simulation Heat Transfer Fluid Efficiency and Molten Salts in Heat Collecting Elements in Concentrating Solar Power
In this work, we simulate the efficiency of different Heat Transfer Fluids (HTF) and molten salts when circulating through a section of Heat Collecting Elements (HCE) in a parabolic trough system for Concentrating Solar Power (CSP). The simulation shows that the Therminol VP-1 and Dowtherm A synthetic oils are the most efficient in the solar field due to their broad range of working temperature...
متن کاملA Novel Modeling of Molten-Salt Heat Storage Systems in Thermal Solar Power Plants
Many thermal solar power plants use thermal oil as heat transfer fluid, and molten salts as thermal energy storage. Oil absorbs energy from sun light, and transfers it to a water-steam cycle across heat exchangers, to be converted into electric energy by means of a turbogenerator, or to be stored in a thermal energy storage system so that it can be later transferred to the water-steam cycle. Th...
متن کاملConcentrating Solar Power Systems
— Development of Concentrating Solar Power Systems has started about 40 years ago. A first commercial implementation was performed between 1985 and 1991 in California. However, a drop in gas prices caused a longer period without further deployment. It was overcome in 2007 when new incentive schemes for renewables in Spain and the US enabled a commercial restart. In 2016, almost 100 commercial C...
متن کاملAssessment of a Molten Salt Heat Transfer Fluid in a Parabolic Trough Solar Field
An evaluation was carried out to investigate the feasibility of utilizing a molten salt as the heat transfer fluid (HTF) and for thermal storage in a parabolic trough solar field to improve system performance and to reduce the levelized electricity cost. The operating SEGS1 plants currently use a high temperature synthetic oil consisting of a eutectic mixture of biphenyl/diphenyl oxide. The sco...
متن کاملInfluence of different operation strategies on transient solar thermal power plant simulation models with molten salt as heat transfer fluid
One of the advantages of solar thermal power plants (STPPs) with molten salt as heat transfer fluid is the direct storage system. This means that the thermal energy collected by the solar field and the electric power generation can be fully decoupled. The plant operator must therefore make the daily decision when to start-up or to shut-down the power block (PB). Normally, the solar field of the...
