Abstract

The molten salt solar tower systemis provided for controlling molten salt temperature in a solar receiverfor effective operation of the systemwhile without degrading physical properties of molten salt. The systemincludes two circuits, firstand second. The first circuitis configured to supply relatively cold molten salt in the solar receiverfor heating, and the second circuitis configured to supply a predetermined amount of the relatively cold molten salt in the first circuit, as and when the temperature of the relatively hot molten salt circulating through the solar receiverexceeds a predetermined set temperature value thereof.
