Heat Transfer Fluids for Power Generation and Thermal Storage

Heat transfer fluids are also utilized in solar energy generation, in concentrators such as parabolic, linear Fresnel, and trough-based systems. Several heat transfer media can be utilized, depending on the mechanical design and temperature requirements of the application.

Water/steam is used in turbines for generating electricity.
Molten salts, such as 60% NaNO3 and 40% KNO3 (220-600°C) for thermal storage

Synthetic/Aromatic Heat Transfer Fluids

Liquid-phase only: Used to uniformly provide heat for steam in turbine generator,
Vapor phase: Used for generating electricity in turbines, similar to steam but with greater thermal efficiency
