Solar thermal energy (STE) is a form of energy and a for harnessing to generate for use in , and in the residential and commercial sectors. are classified by the United States as low-, medium-, or high-temperature collectors. Low-temperature collectors are generally unglazed and used to heat or t.
The preheater, steam generator, superheater and the reheater are commonly referred to as the solar power plant heat exchangers. In a number of applications, molten salt heat exchangers are used to facilitate power generation at night (thermal storage).
This chapter presents the general details on modeling and simulation of solar thermal plants along with an example of a step-by-step process to design and optimize a central receiver solar thermal power plant with a steam Rankine cycle and a two-tank molten salt storage system.
