Proposed 10 MWe North-Facing Falling Particle Receiver Design
- Sandia National Lab. (SNL-NM), Albuquerque, NM (United States)
A 10 MWe north-facing falling particle receiver (FPR) is proposed in this document to support performance comparisons of this design when compared with a direct s-CO2 solar receiver concept. This document describes the modeling and simulation effort for the proposed FPR to evaluate its thermal performance. A description of the modeling strategy is provided in the following section including details on the receiver and heliostat field. Then, this model is used to evaluate the performance of the receiver at various times of throughout the year. Finally, the results of this analysis are summarized. Direct comparisons with a similarly sized s-CO2 solar receiver concept are not discussed here.
