Can standard tubes be used for SCO2?
With current receiver design points (80 MW on a receiver of 100 m2, CR = 800), it appears impossible to obtain a feasible design for sCO2using standard tubes, in terms of finding appropriate tube size and wall thickness to meet the criterion of Fsafety>1.2.
The solar power tower system, which is also known as the centralized system, is equipped with mirrors called heliostat on a large area of the site. This system accurately concentrates the reflection of the sun on top of a high tower receiver; the concentrating rate on the absorber can exceed 1000 times.
The maximum heat flux on the tube is assumed to 800 kW/m2, and the ambient temperature is set to 25 °C. Solar salt is employed as the HTF in the experiment. The melting point and salt decomposition temperatures are 207 °C and 600 °C, respectively.
Can a solar-hybrid plant be used with a gas turbine?
Solugas, a solar hybrid Brayton plant, compressed ambient air up to 9 bar (gauge) and heated it from 300−350 °C to 800 °C (Korzynietz et al., 2016). The heated air was then used in a turbine. This project demonstrated the feasibility of a solar-hybrid plant with gas turbine in Spain.
