A ballast member may be disposed within a vessel to reduce an active volume of the vessel through which the working fluid can circulate. For instance, a solar power system may include a solar receiver through which a working fluid can be circulated and at least one solar collector that is operative to direct solar energy toward the solar receiver to heat the working fluid. A tank is fluidly connected with the solar receivers such that the working fluid can be circulated through the tank. The tank includes an internal chamber and at least one ballast member within the internal chamber that reduces the active volume of the internal chamber.
