Information

Calculation of thermo-physical properties for pure solid CarboHSP particle in the temperature region of 50 to 1100 degC. CarboHSP can used in falling particle CSP central receiver systems as heat transfer carrier and storage medium.

This package of thermodynamic properties is explicit for pressure and temperature.

These correlations have been obtained by integration of (cp dT) to obtain enthalpy, and integration of (cp/T dT) to obtain entropy. Integration constants are added so that h and s evaluate to zero at T = 298.15 K (i.e. 25 degC).

Restriction

The functions provided by this package shall be used inside of the restricted limits according to the referenced literature.

• 50 degC ≤ T ≤ 1100 degC
• Explicit for pressure and temperature.
