In this work we attempt to provide some guidelines for the preparation and characterization of nanofluids based on molten salts in order to avoid misleading interpretations regarding their thermophysical properties. We particularly focus on the importance of the preparation method and the stability of molten salt based nanofluids.

The isothermal liquid-gas phase change of sodium is matched to the isothermal solid-liquid phase change of NaCl, at an appropriate temperature (around 800°C) for a range of industrial process applications, as well as power generation using the Stirling engine. A storage configuration based on direct contact between the sodium and NaCl in shallow trays within a tank is proposed. In the first part of this paper, a detailed dynamic model of the storage system, coupled to simplified models of the receiver and power cycle, was developed to simulate performance over a year. For a case study based on the PS10 heliostat field, a 5.9 MWe system with annual capacity factor of 59.9% was determined to have a levelised cost of energy of 0.23 USD/kWh, using cost assumptions largely based on the 2017 System Advisor Model. Importantly, storage costs, including salt containment in the tank and trays, were a small fraction (8.7%) of total plant capital costs, an indication of the potential feasibility of this form of storage. A key technical challenge for a sodium boiler operating on sun is expected to be boiling stability. Evaporation of the microlayer, the thin layer of fluid formed below a growing bubble, is primarily responsible for bubble growth. The second part of this paper describes initial work to develop fundamental understanding of the causes of boiling instability. Results of modelling indicate the strong dependence of the microlayer heat transfer on the thermophysical properties of the liquid, which may significantly affect bubble characteristics and influence stability.A novel concentrating solar thermal power system is described, in which a tubular sodium boiler receiver is coupled to a latent heat salt storage system using NaCl.

Combined cycle power generation becomes possible with e.g. a topping Brayton air turbine cycle and an advanced steam power block as bottoming cycle. This hybrid combined cycle solar tower power plant will be tested on a 3 MWth pilot-scale at the CNRS-Themis solar tower (France) with the receiver, hot powder storage and air Brayton turbine. The suspension will exit the receiver at a nominal outlet temperature of 750-800°C. Hot powders will be stored and will subsequently exchange heat with the turbine air. The outlet temperature of the air heat exchanger (625 to 700 °C) will considerably determine the hybrid operation (reducing the possibly used fossil fuel boost) and the heat exchanger design is of paramount importance. The air heat exchanger will be a baffled cross-flow fluidized bed. Air will be heated in an in-bed finned-tube bundle. Air will be fed at 5.8 bar and∼270°C. The hydrodynamics and heat transfer characteristics of the air heat exchanger were experimentally investigated towards bubble properties and heat trasnfer coefficient. The bed to tube heat transfer coefficient was measured for different pipe geometries at bed temperatures up to 700 °C, exceeding 2 kW/m2K for a twin-bore finned tube but only about 650 W/m²K for the bare tube of equal outside diameter. The heat transfer coefficient from the tube wall to the turbulent air flow inside the tube (∼ 325 W/m2K) determines the design. NEPTUNE_CFD software was used to perform 3D-numerical simulations of the fluidized bed hydrodynamics via an Eulerian n-fluid approach. Simulation and experimental results were in very fair agreement, stressing the capability of mathematical models to predict the behaviour of a cross-flow bubbling fluidized bed.","PeriodicalId":21790,"journal":{"name":"SOLARPACES 2018: International Conference on Concentrating Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73009226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
