The use of molten alkali nitrate/nitrite and alkaline nitrate salts as a HTF and heat storage fluid is promising in CSP plants because of their negligible vapor pressure and optimum fluid velocity. The best-established HTF is a binary NaNO 3 –KNO 3 (60–40 weight ratio) solar salt [] which has melting point 220 C and decomposition point at 565 C [].
Energy is essential in our daily lives to increase human development, which leads to economic growth and productivity. In recent national development plans and policies, numerous nations have prioritized sustainable energy storage. To promote sustainable energy use, energy storage systems are being deployed to store excess …
A solar dryer was constructed incorporating a thermal energy storage system (Fig. 11). A solar collector with a wavy black absorber plate was connected to energy storage unit. The hot air exit from the solar collector was passed through the shell and tube type thermal energy storage system and directing it to the drying chamber.
