Caron, Simon; Farchado, Meryem; San Vicente, Gema; Morales, Angel; Ballestrin, Jesus; Carvalho, Maria João; Páscoa, Soraia; Baron, EstelleABSTRACT: An intercomparison of opto-thermal spectral measurements has been performed for some relevant receiver materials in concentrating solar thermal applications, from room temperature up to 800 degrees C. Five European laboratories performed spectral measurements at room temperature, while two laboratories performed infrared spectral measurements at operating temperature up to 800 degrees C. Relevant mate...

Dynamic corrosion testing of metals in solar salt for concentrated solar power
Sutter, Florian; Oskay, Ceyhun; Galetz, Mathias Christian; Cunha Diamantino, Teresa; Pedrosa, Fátima; Figueira, Isabel; Glumm, Stefan; Bonk, AlexanderABSTRACT: Potassium nitrate and sodium nitrate in mixing proportion of KNO3-NaNO3 40-60 wt% (also called solar salt) has been successfully used for over a decade as heat storage medium for concentrated solar power parabolic-trough collector plants at temperatures up to 400 degrees C. At temperatures of 560 degrees C, reached in state-of-the-art solar tower systems, corrosion of metallic components in contact wi...
