Application
The solar heat captured in the mirror system of a thermal solar plant is transported via a heat transfer fluid (HTF) to the steam generator at the central turbine. The HTF normally has a temperature between 300 °C and 400 °C. There are different containers for the fluid across the plant and the varying temperatures cause volume changes to the HTF that need to be accurately measured to operate the plant safely and profitably.
