Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating a linear concentrator solar power plant (1), in which method a heat exchange medium flows through a pipeline loop (47) with at least one receiver, wherein the heat exchange medium has a flow velocity which is so great that the flow in the pipeline loop (47) is turbulent, wherein at least part of the heat exchange medium is removed upon exit from the pipeline loop (47) and is guided back into the pipeline loop (47). Furthermore, the invention relates to a linear concentrator solar power plant having at least one pipeline loop (47) with at least one receiver, in which a heat exchange medium which flows through the pipeline loop (47) is heated by incoming solar energy, wherein a mixing device (27) is included, in which at least part of the heat exchange medium which flows through the pipeline loop (47) is mixed with heat exchange medium to be fed in.
