Extended Data Table 3 Operating conditions representative of an intermediate heat exchanger for a 10-MWe concentrated solar power plant

From: Ceramic–metal composites for heat exchangers in concentrated solar power plants

  1. The intermediate (primary) heat exchanger is located between the high-temperature fluid heated by sunlight and the supercritical carbon dioxide in the power block, as shown in Extended Data Fig. 1. Q = 17.5 MWth for this molten-salt-to-sCO2 compact heat exchanger.
