High temperature sensible heat storage options
Conference
·
OSTI ID:6007964
Design options and operation criteria for sensible heat molten salt storage with internal insulation are presented. Raft thermocline, two-tank, and two-media thermocline systems are the concepts discussed. Regenerative cooling, bottom insulation, and thermocline stability are considered in the thermal analysis. A brief discussion of the technical risks of each tank system is included. Cost estimations are also provided.
