Embodiment Construction

[0051]The invention will be described in more detail hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings showing embodiments of the invention. However, this invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art. In these drawings, the size and relative sizes of layers and regions may be exaggerated for clarity.

[0052] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a tower type solar thermal power station using a supercritical water heat absorber and molten salt heat storage. The supercritical water generated by the water in the supercritical water heat absorber enters the steam turbine for power generation, which has a high Thermoelectric conversion efficiency. Due to the high and low solar radiation during the day, when the h...

Abstract

The invention provides a tower solar thermal power plant utilizing a supercritical water heat absorber and molten salt heat storage. The tower solar thermal power plant comprises a condensate pump, a deaerator, a water supply pump, the supercritical water heat absorber, a molten salt heat storage system, a steam turbine, a power generator and a condenser; the molten salt heat storage system comprises a water and molten salt heat exchanger, an expanding device, a cold salt tank, a hot salt tank, a cold salt pump, a hot salt pump and a molten salt and water heat exchanger; the condensate water is heated through the deaerator and input into the supercritical water heat absorber through the water supply pump, the solar radiation is absorbed, and the deaerated water is converted into the supercritical water to enter into the steam turbine to for work applying and power generation. The tower solar thermal power plant is combined with the work applying and power generation of the supercritical water and the molten salt heat storage and accordingly the tower solar thermal power plant can be suitable for various solar radiation conditions and the thermoelectric conversion efficiency is high; the work applying of the supercritical water is high in efficiency and free of phase change and accordingly the high thermoelectric efficiency can be guaranteed through a simple single-stage heat storage system; meanwhile the risk that the molten salt is solidified in the upper tower process is voided in comparison with a molten salt heat absorber.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tower-type solar thermal power generation, in particular to a tower-type solar thermal power station using a supercritical water heat absorber and molten salt heat storage.
