Overview
Principle: Sunlight – Heat – Electricity
Sunlight is concentrated, using mirrors or
directly, on to receivers heating the circulating fluid
which further generates steam &/or electricity.
Solar Radiation Components:
Direct, Diffuse & Global
CSP uses- Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI)
Measuring Instrument: Pyrheliometer

Challenges & Alternatives
Heat Storage
Options developed
• Molten Salt- Most Accepted; research going for
single tank storage with two sections• Phase Change Materials- Research stage• Steam Accumulator- Less Duration; large area• Concrete Materials- Research stage
Receiver Heat losses-• Linear Receivers- Developed with 90%+ η• Central Tower receivers- Currently used- Receivers with
multiple metallic tubes, Metallic Wire Mesh type, with a coating
technology (Pyromark High Temperature paint) which has a
solar absorptance in excess of 0.95 but a thermal emittance greater than 0.8. Research
going on in thermal spray & chemical vapor deposition
Working Fluids- For High Temperature circulation
(Higher operating temperatures result in high turbine efficiency)
• Synthetic aromatic fluid (SAF)- Currently used; Organic benzene based (400°C)
• Molten Salt- Developing (550°C); Eliminates HE for storage; In use for solar tower 19
Challenges & Alternatives
Water Consumption- Cooling Towers, Steam cycle make-up &
Mirror cleaning
• Wet cooling: ~ 865gal/MWh; Currently used; Water consumption
• Dry cooling: ~78gal/MWh; Developing stage, Costlier, low thermal η
• Hybrid cooling: ~338gal/MWh; Developing stage
NREL Findings for southwest US: Switching from 100% wet to 100% dry cooling will result in levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) increase of approximately 3% to 8% for parabolic trough plants, but reduces water consumption by 90 %
Receiver Materials- For Sustaining High Temp and pressure;
Research going on for developing high nickel alloy materials
