An Effective Design of a Solar Thermal Collection and Storage System Using Molten Tin as Heat Transfer Fluid

Abstract

This paper introduces the computation of a solar thermal collection and storage system by molten matters at high temperature. The proposed formulations are verified by experiments, and can be applied to the design of solar thermal collection and storage system and can be added to the training program on solar energy for related subjects such as thermal refrigeration, electricity, renewable energy. The equipment is manufactured and can be widely applied to production and life, depending on its capacity and service on various forms of water supply such as hot water, boiling water, dry saturated steam, superheated steam, high pressure hot water, steam high pressure, high pressure superheated steam.
