[0056] In the above technical solution, the corrosion problem of hydroxide salt on metal is solved by setting a corresponding tempering molten salt tank 2 and a corresponding molten salt tempering process, which can ensure the stable and safe operation of the system.

[0057] More specifically, the tempering molten salt tank 2 uses a molybdate-phosphate mixed molten salt, and the ratio of molybdate to phosphate is 1:5-1:10. Of course, the above ratio of molybdate to phosphate is only the optimal ratio preferred in this embodiment, and its implementation is not limited to the above optimal ratio.

[0058] Continue to refer Figure 1 The steam turbine unit includes a high-pressure cylinder 9, an intermediate-pressure cylinder 10, a low-pressure cylinder 11, a condenser 12, a condensate pump 13, a low-pressure heater 14, a deaerator 15, a feed water pump 16 and a high-pressure cylinder 17.

[0059] The high-pressure cylinder 9 can be connected to the superheater 7 and the reheater 8 respectively, the other end of the high-pressure cylinder 9 is connected to the medium-pressure cylinder 10, the other end of the medium-pressure cylinder 10 is connected to the low-pressure cylinder 11, the other end of the low-pressure cylinder 11 is connected to the condenser 12, the other end of the condenser 12 is connected to the condensate pump 13, the other end of the condensate pump 13 is connected to the low-pressure heater 14, the other end of the low-pressure heater 14 is connected to the deaerator 15, the other end of the deaerator 15 is connected to the feed water pump 16, and the other end of the feed water pump 16 is connected to the high-pressure heater 17. The above-mentioned steam turbine unit can operate in the energy release stage.

[0060] In addition, aluminum alloy is provided on the inner walls of the high-temperature molten salt tank 1 and the low-temperature molten salt tank 4 , and the aluminum alloy is connected to the inner wall of the high-temperature molten salt tank 1 or the low-temperature molten salt tank 4 by welding.

[0061] Based on the above-mentioned high-temperature heat storage power generation system, the process of using a tempering molten salt tank and a corresponding molten salt tempering process to perform anti-corrosion treatment on the system in this embodiment mainly includes the following steps.

[0062] Step S11, first, the system pre-treats the inner wall of the molten salt measurement loop before activation, specifically: heat and modulate the molten salt inside the molten salt tank to 650°C for salting, adjust the valve at the outlet of the high-temperature molten salt tank to allow the tempered molten salt to circulate on the molten salt side, flow through the superheater, evaporator, and preheater in turn into the low-temperature molten salt tank; flow from the outlet of the low-temperature tank into the molten salt electric heating device, and finally return to the tempered molten salt tank. During the pre-treatment process, the tempered molten salt circulates in the loop for no less than 50 times to ensure that an anti-corrosion passivation film is formed inside the molten salt loop.

[0063] Step S12, when sodium hydroxide molten salt is used for heat storage and release, it is first necessary to turn on the tempering molten salt pump, which is arranged between the tempering molten salt tank and the high-temperature molten salt tank, and the tempering molten salt pump is connected to the tempering molten salt tank and the high-temperature molten salt tank respectively. After turning on, the tempering molten salt is mixed with the sodium hydroxide molten salt in a certain proportion in the high-temperature molten salt tank and then enters the molten salt side circulation loop. In this embodiment, the amount of tempering molten salt is generally 3-5% of the amount of sodium hydroxide molten salt. Of course, in the actual implementation process, the ratio of the amount of tempering molten salt to the amount of sodium hydroxide molten salt is not limited to the above 3-5%.

[0064] Step S13, after the system runs for a period of time, the molten salt side circulation loop is regularly passivated using tempered molten salt (650°C); during the treatment process, the sodium hydroxide molten salt valve channel is closed and does not enter the circulation loop. In this embodiment, as a preferred time interval, it is 28-35 days, and of course other time intervals can also be set.

[0065] For step S2 and step S3 in embodiment 1, in more detail, they include the following process.

[0066] For step S2, when the system is storing heat, the low-temperature molten salt flows through the electric heating device via the second molten salt pump, and the renewable electricity drives the molten salt electric heating device to heat the low-temperature molten salt. The low-temperature molten salt is heated from 330°C to 700°C by the molten salt electric heating device and then enters the high-temperature molten salt tank, thereby finally absorbing renewable electricity.

[0067] For step S3, when the system releases energy to generate electricity, the high-temperature molten salt flows through the superheater, evaporator and preheater in sequence through the high-temperature molten salt pump, and enters the low-temperature molten salt tank after releasing heat; a branch of the high-temperature molten salt flows through the reheater and returns to the superheater outlet. After the high-pressure heater, the feed water flows through the preheater, evaporator and superheater in sequence to exchange heat with the high-temperature molten salt to generate high-temperature and high-pressure steam. The steam enters the high-pressure cylinder to do work and then returns to the reheater to exchange heat with the molten salt to heat up again, and then enters the medium-pressure cylinder and the low-pressure cylinder to do work and generate electricity, realizing the thermoelectric conversion of the high-temperature heat storage system.
