Tower for solar concentration plant with natural draught cooling

摘要

Solar concentration plant placed on tower technology wherein the tower is used not only to equate the receiver devices at great height but also as a natural-draft cooling system. The tower is hollow and has a hyperboloid structure that may exceed 200 m in height, accommodating devices for receiving saturated or superheated steam in cavities with different orientations. There is a dynamic control for adapting the heliostat field so that the heliostats can be focussed on different focal points for producing electricity, producing process heat, producing solar fuels or for application to thermochemical processes.
