ABSTRACT:
The study conducted by the Foster Wheeler Solar Development Corporation (FWSDC) is Phase l of a two-phase project whose objectives are:
• Develop a reliable, cost-effective molten salt steam generating subsystem for solar thermal plants
• Minimize uncertainty in steam generator subsystem
• Demonstrate the ability of molten salt to generate high-pressure, hightemperature steam.
The Phase 1 study involved the conceptual design of molten salt steam generating subsystems for a nominal 100-MWe net solar central receiving electric generating plant (100-MWe solar stand-alone) and a nominal 100-MWe net fossil-fueled electric power generating plant that is 50 percent repowered by a solar central receiver system (50-MW'e hybrid). As part of Phase 1, a proposal was prepared for Phase 2, which will involve the design, construction, testing and evaluation of a Subsystem Research Experiment (SRE) of sufficient size to ensure successful operation of the full-size subsystem designed in Phase 1.
