Novel analysis of second law and irreversibility for a solar power plant using heliostat field and molten salt

Abstract Nowadays, the low efficiency of solar energy power plant systems brings about uneconomical performance and high‐cost uncompetitive industries compared with the traditional fossil fuel ones. In order to overcome these kinds of issues, in this study, the performance of a solar tower coupled w...
