Abstract

The thermal energy storage (TES) of solar power plant was presented by small scale experiment for testing the mathematical model. Charging performance of heat transfer fluid (HTF) was investigated at various flow rates. The heat transfer rate was rapidly risen HTF temperature that obtained by low flow rate. The discharging experiment was set by HTF from room temperature to discharge temperature. It shows the starting discharge temperature at turning point. HTF and storage temperature are parallel decreased in the experiment. The calculation was validated with the measurement in charging experiment from room temperature to maximum HTF temperature.
