Book Synopsis Conceptual Design of a 20-acre Salt Gradient Solar Pond System for Electric Power Production at Truscott, Texas by : E. Kenneth May
Book excerpt: This report documents the final phase of a study performed for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tulsa District regarding the technical feasibility of solar pond technology to produce electricity using part of a brine containment lake at Truscott, Texas. A conceptual design of an 8-ha (20-acre) solar pond electric system is described, including the layout and design of the solar, cooling, and evaporating ponds; the preliminary specifications of mechanical equipment (pumps, piping, heat exchangers, and turbine/generator) and instrumentation; and operational and maintenance procedures.
