Performance evaluation of a solar thermal storage system proposed for concentrated solar power plants

Talal Alqahtani

Summary: This study aims to assess the performance of the Hybrid Solar Thermal Storage (HSTS) system, which combines latent phase change material and thermochemical storage system. Three storage system designs are proposed and numerically investigated, and key performance indicators such as volumetric storage capacity and energy storage efficiency are used to evaluate them. The results show that integrating a reaction heat recovery internal system based on Na3Al as PCM can significantly improve the energy storage efficiency of the HSTS system, and using a PCM in truncated hollow cones can reduce heat charging and discharging time, increase storage capacity, and specific power.
