1-MW/sub th/ bench model solar cavity receiver steam generator program. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5926697
The final configuration of the 1 MW Thermal Bench Model Solar Cavity Receiver Steam Generator is presented. The receiver was designed, built, and tested to provide an early demonstration of the feasibility of using solar energy to produce electricity with a conventional steam turbine generator. The receiver was fabricated by Martin Marietta Corporation at its Denver facility and was tested in the radiant heat test facility at Sandia Laboratories, Albuquerque and followed by solar testing at the Centre National De La Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) solar furnace in Odeillo, France. Test results are briefly discussed. The program plan included subsequent testing at the Solar Thermal Test Facility (STTF) in Albuquerque. Modifications to the receiver have been made that will permit testing at STTF.
