Conceptual design of solar central-receiver hybrid power system: sodium-cooled-receiver concept. Volume II. Appendices

Technical Report · Mon Jan 01 04:00:00 EST 1979

OSTI ID:6168562

A trade study to select a fossil fuel and receiver size for the 100 MWe conceptual design of the Solar Central Receiver Hybrid Power System is presented. Parallel and series configurations for the solar receiver and fossil-fired sodium heater are compared. A steam cycle optimization study is presented. Data for a tower analysis and receiver mass distribution study are given, and design data sheets are included for solar multiples of 0.8 and 1.4. P and I diagrams of the electric power generation subsystem and of the 0.8 and 1.4 solar multiple solar power system are included. The system response to the loss of a pump and to the loss of sunlight is analyzed. (LEW)
