High temperature heat pumps (HT HP) can be utilized to boost the salt temperature in the thermal energy storage (TES) of a Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC) system from 385 °C up to 565 °C. A PV field can supply the power for the HT HP, thus effectively storing the PV power as thermal energy. Besides cost-efficiently storing energy from the PV field, the power block efficiency of the overall system is improved due to the higher steam parameters. This paper presents a technical assessment of Brayton cycle heat pumps to be integrated in hybrid PV-CSP power plants. As a first step, a theoretical analysis was carried out to find the most suitable working fluid. The analysis included the fluids Air, Argon (Ar), Nitrogen (N2) and Carbon dioxide (CO2). N2 has been chosen as the optimal working fluid for the system. After the selection of the ideal working medium, different concepts for the arrangement of a HT HP in a PV-CSP hybrid power plant were developed and simulated in EBSILON®Professional. The concepts were evaluated technically by comparing the number of components required, pressure losses and coefficient of performance (COP).}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BaumannTeixeiraBouraGoettscheetal.2010, author = {Baumann, T. and Teixeira Boura, Cristiano Jos{\´e} and G{\"o}ttsche, Joachim and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and O'Connell, B. and Schmitz, S. and Zunft, S.}, title = {Air/Sand heat exchanger design and materials for solar thermal power plant applications}, series = {SolarPACES 2010 : the CSP Conference: electricity, fuels and clean water from concentrated solar energy ; 21 to 24 September 2010, Perpignan, France}, booktitle = {SolarPACES 2010 : the CSP Conference: electricity, fuels and clean water from concentrated solar energy ; 21 to 24 September 2010, Perpignan, France}, publisher = {Soc.

By intelligently combining Photovoltaics (PV) systems with CSP, a further cost reduction of solar power plants is expected, as well as an increase in dispatchability and flexibility of power generation. PV-powered Resistance Heaters (RH) can be deployed to raise the temperature of the molten salt hot storage from 385 °C up to 565 °C in a Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC) plant. To avoid freezing and decomposition of molten salt, the temperature distribution in the electrical resistance heater is investigated in the present study. For this purpose, a RH has been modeled and CFD simulations have been performed. The simulation results show that the hottest regions occur on the electric rod surface behind the last baffle. A technical optimization was performed by adjusting three parameters: Shell-baffle clearance, electric rod-baffle clearance and number of baffles. After the technical optimization was carried out, the temperature difference between the maximum temperature and the average outlet temperature of the salt is within the acceptable limits, thus critical salt decomposition has been avoided. Additionally, the CFD simulations results were analyzed and compared with results obtained with a one-dimensional model in Modelica.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DuemmlerOetringerGoettsche2020, author = {D{\"u}mmler, Andreas and Oetringer, Kerstin and G{\"o}ttsche, Joachim}, title = {Auslegungstool zur energieeffizienten K{\"u}hlung von Geb{\"a}uden}, series = {DKV-Tagung 2020, AA IV}, booktitle = {DKV-Tagung 2020, AA IV}, pages = {1109}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Thematisch widmet sich das Projekt Coolplan- AIR der Fortentwicklung und Feldvalidierung eines Berechnungs- und Auslegungstools zur energieeffizienten K{\"u}hlung von Geb{\"a}uden mit luftgest{\"u}tzten Systemen.

Die Komponentenmodelle werden in die Matlab/Simulink- Toolbox CARNOT integriert und anschließend auf Basis der zuvor erhaltenen Messdaten validiert. Einerseits erlauben die Messungen das Betriebsverhalten von Anlagenkomponenten zu analysieren.
