A 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 کاملOverview of Molten Salt Storage Systems and Material Development for Solar Thermal Power Plants
This paper gives an overview of thermal energy storage (TES) systems based on molten salts. It summarizes stateof-the-art molten salt TES systems. Storage systems in a research stage, such as the thermocline and floating barrier concepts, are also discussed. The paper summarizes previous work on molten salt material investigations at DLR. Experimental results of novel salt formulations with mel...
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...
متن کاملDesign of new molten salt thermal energy storage material for solar thermal power plant
In order to obtain molten salt with lower melting point, higher thermal stability and reduced cost relative to previously available materials, a variety of molten salt mixtures of alkali nitrates are investigated by experimental methods. However, since measurements are generally expensive and time-consuming, it is of interest to be able to predict melting point and the component of multi-compon...
متن کاملIn situ production of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in molten salt phase for thermal energy storage and heat-transfer fluid applications
In this study, TiO2 nanoparticles (average particle size 16 nm) were successfully produced in molten salt phase and were showed to significantly enhance the specific heat capacity of a binary eutectic mixture of sodium and potassium nitrate (60/40) by 5.4 % at 390 °C and 7.5 % at 445 °C for 3.0 wt% of precursors used. The objective of this research was to develop a cost-effective alternate meth...
