High Themal Energy Storage Density Molten Salts for Parabolic HIGH THEMAL ENERGY STORAGE DENSITY MOLTEN SALTS FOR PARABOLIC TROUGH SOLAR POWER GENERATION by TAO WANG RAMANA G. REDDY, COMMITTEE CHAIR NITIN CHOPRA YANG-KI HONG A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2011 Copyright Tao Wang 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT New alkali nitrate-nitrite systems were developed by using thermodynamic modeling and the eutectic points were predicted based on the change of Gibbs energy of fusion. Those systems with melting point lower than 130oC were selected for further analysis. The new compounds were synthesized and the melting point and heat capacity were determined using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The experimentally determined melting points agree well with the predicted results of modeling. It was found that the lithium nitrate amount and heating rate have significant effects on the melting point value and the endothermic peaks. Heat capacity data as a function of temperature are fit to polynomial equation and thermodynamic properties like enthalpies, entropies and Gibbs energies of the systems as function of temperature are subsequently induced. The densities for the selected systems were experimentally determined and found in a very close range due to the similar composition. In liquid state, the density values decrease linearly as temperature increases with small slope. Moreover, addition of lithium nitrate generally decreases the density. On the basis of density, heat capacity and the melting point, thermal energy storage was calculated. Among all the new molten salt systems, LiNO3-NaNO3- KNO3-Mg(NO3)2-MgKN quinary system presents the largest thermal energy storage density as well as the gravimetric density values. Compared to the KNO3-NaNO3 binary solar salt, all the new molten salts present larger thermal energy storage as well as the gravimetric storage density values, which indicate the better thermal energy storage capacity for solar power generation systems. ii DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to everyone who helped me and guided me through the trials and tribulations of creating this manuscript.

Because the cheap cost and infinite amount of energy storage inside the resource, solar energy is emphasized since 20th century and viewed as promising alternative method to satisfy the large energy consumption every day in the world, reduce the emission of carbon and strengthen the economy. The wind energy was used as a clean energy to generate electricity back to late 19th century. However, this renewable energy source was not emphasized due to the cheap price of fossil fuel.

By ALEXANDERROSHDESTWENSEY and WILLIAM CUDMORE MCCULLAGHLEWIS. WHILSTa considerable amount of attention has been directed to the electrochemical behaviour of methyl and ethyl alcohols, rela- tively few measurements are recorded in the caw of solutions in acetone. The present paper contains the resulk of an investigation undertaken to supply to a certain extent this deficiency. The solutes employed were lithium nitrate and silver nitrate, the latter being examined in greater detail. Before giving our own meamrements, it is necessary to indicate briefly some of the results obtained by other observers which bear directly on the results obtained by us.* As regards the electrolysis of saturated silver nitrate solutions in acetone, Kahlenberg (J. physicd C‘Aem., 1900,4, 349) found that the metal was precipitated in a coherent form, but “the solution conducts so poorly ” that it was impossible to verify Faxaday’s law. In the same paper Kahlenberg gives some results of electromotive force measurements of Ag i AgNO, concentration cells in pyridine and acetonitrile respectively, with regard to which he concludes that the Nernst expressions are inapplicable. Kahlenberg asumes that the liquid/liquid potential difference is negligible, which, in the case of acetone at least, we shall show later is not the case. The specific conductivity of acetone itself has been meamred by Dutoit and Levier (J. Chim. phys., 1905, 3,435), the value obtained Published on 01 January 1911.

Improvements in TES materials are important to lower CSP costs, increase energy efficiency and competitiveness with other technologies. A novel alternative examined in this paper is the use of salt mixtures with lithium nitrate that help to reduce the salt’s melting point and improve thermal capacity. This in turn allows the volume of materials required to be reduced. Based on data for commercial plants and the expected evolution of the lithium market, the technical and economic prospects for this alternative are evaluated considering recent developments of Lithium Nitrates and the uncertain future prices of lithium. Through a levelized cost of energy (LCOE) analysis it is concluded that some of the mixtures could allow a reduction in the costs of CSP plants, improving their competitiveness.

  • Thermodynamic Properties of Molten Nitrate Salts

Kruizenga2, Rachel Altmaier2, Matthew Sampson2, April Nissen2 1 Sandia National Laboratories: Senior member, Technical Staff, PhD. PO Box 969, Livermore, CA, USA, 94551, Phone: +1 (925) 294-2351, Email: [email protected] 2 Sandia National Laboratories: PO Box 969, Livermore, CA, USA, 94551 Abstract Molten salts are being employed throughout the world as heat transfer fluids and phase change materials for concentrated solar power (CSP) production and storage. In order to design large production facilities, accurate physical and thermodynamic properties of molten salts must be known. Required data include a) melting point; b) viscosity; c) apparent heat of fusion; d) thermal conductivity; e) heat capacity; f) density; g) volumetric expansion; and h) vapor pressure. Data are available for many pure components which make up molten salt mixtures. However, there are some missing or inconsistent numbers in the literature, especially for materials at elevated temperatures. This paper summarizes our most current thermodynamic measurements for some pure salts and mixtures which are of interest as heat transfer fluids and phase change materials (PCM). Specifically, data on the apparent heat of fusion (ΔHfus) and heat capacity (Cp) for a family of nitrate and nitrite salts are reported. These data are critical for estimating costs associated with parabolic trough systems, central receiver towers, and thermal storage tanks. Keywords: Nitrate, Molten Salts, Heat Capacity, heat of Fusion 1. Introduction Our current work focuses on expanding the database of thermophysical properties of alkali and alkaline earth cations with nitrate or nitrite anions. Previous reports from our group discuss low-melting salts containing lithium, sodium, potassium and calcium cations with nitrate and nitrite anions.

  • Resorption Heat Transformers Operating with the Ammonia- Lithium Nitrate Mixture
    Resorption Heat Transformers Operating with the Ammonia- Lithium Nitrate Mixture J. A. Hernández-Magallanesa, W. Riveraa, A. Coronasb aInstituto de Energías Renovables, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), 62580 Temixco, Morelos, México. bUniversitat Rovira i Virgili (URV), Av. Paisos Catalans, 26; 43007, Tarragona, Spain. Abstract Absorption heat transformers (AHT) are interesting devices for recovering and upgrading thermal energy which consume very low amount of primary energy. To date, H2O-LiBr is the most common working pair used in absorption heat transformers. However, H2O-LiB mixture has several well-known drawbacks. On the other hand, heat transformers operating with NH3-H2O are not so common because they should operate at very high pressures. The use of a resorption circuit in heat transformers is an interesting alternative to reduce the high pressure level. A resorption heat transformer (RHT) is very similar to an absorption heat transformer, where the evaporator-condenser circuit is replaced by a second desorber-absorber circuit. In the literature it has been reported very few studies about resorption heat transformers operating with the NH3-H2O working pair. In this paper, the modeling and thermodynamic analysis of a single stage absorption heat transformer (AHT) and a single stage resorption heat transformer (RHT) operating with the NH3-LiNO3 mixture is presented. The systems using the NH3-LiNO3 do not require rectification process; therefore the systems using this mixture are simpler than those operating with NH3-H2O. In the present study the coefficients of performance, the exergetic efficiencies and the gross temperature lifts are analyzed as function of the main operating system temperatures.
