Title:
DEVICE, INSTALLATION AND METHOD FOR STORING AND TRANSFERRING THERMAL ENERGY OF SOLAR ORIGIN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/207106
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Device (1 ) that allows storing thermal energy of solar origin through a layer of granular material (100) capable of absorbing thermal energy from solar radiation, acting as a storage and transfer means. The accumulation material is housed in a solar receiver (2) and in translational motion with respect thereto. This motion is obtained by gravity by means of an inclined plane (200). Solar energy is concentrated on the device by means of an optical system with beam down configuration. The accumulation material absorbs concentrated solar thermal energy and transfers it to a tube heat exchanger (5). The discharge of the solar receiver feeds, downstream of the heat exchanger, a mechanical conveyor (3), in turn in communication with an elevator (4) which returns the granular material to the solar receiver.
