CLUB CAST3M Paris 29-11-2012

Conceptual design of concrete thermal energy storage system for small size concentration solar plants. (Overview on CAST3M application for the analysis of components for solar plants employing molten salts)

Objectives of the SOLTECA project

Sensible heat storage in a specially developed concrete mix

Modular storage system, not cast in situ, reduction in the degassing time at start up.

Working temperature between 120 e 300 °C, able to operate a ORC power block

Cost containment - (between 20-30 € / kWh_th), (not expensive O&M costs).

Small plants with peak power (0.5 to 5 MWe), more placeable in the territory

The project is funded by the Cassa di Risparmio di Trento E Rovereto (CARITRO)

Receiver Vibration

L.Mot.

-Circulating fluid and defocused trough

-Trough focusing

-Vibration amplitude-stabilized after about

2 min.

-Oscillation amplitude 2.6-3 mm

-Frequency 5.5-6 Hz

- The vibration stops after a minute from the

defocusing

Physical interpretation of each term:

• 1- flexural restoring forces

• 2- centrifugal force of moving fluid and pressure force associated with radius of curvature

• 3- Coriolis force

• 4- inertia force of tube and fluid
