Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this project was to support the Solar Central Receiver Power Plant research, development and demonstration effort by: (1) Establishment of a heliostat design, with associated manufacturing, assembly, installation and maintenance approaches, that, in quantity production will yield significant reductions in capital and operating costs over an assumed 30 year plant lifetime as compared with existing designs; and (2) Identification of needs for near term and future research and development in heliostat concept, materials, manufacture, installation, maintenance, and other areas, where successful accomplishment and application would offer significant payoffs in the further reduction of the cost of electrical energy from solar central receiver power plants. The prototype heliostat design is presented in detail; and manufacturing, installation, and maintenance procedures described. (WHK).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is volume II of a two volume report which presents the results of a study to define a low-cost approach to the production, installation, and operation of heliostats for central receiver solar thermal power plants. Performance and cost analyses are presented, and critical R and D areas are identified. Also, computer printed work sheets are included for heliostat investment, maintenance equipment investment, initial spares investment, and first years operations and maintenance for 2,500, 25,000, 250,000, and 1,000,000 units per year production.

Book excerpt: The complete preliminary design analysis and drawings of the heliostat system that were used as the basis for the manufacturing conceptual design and cost estimates are presented. Complete costing data is included along with all of the assumptions and data used in studying the production processes. A detailed description of the control system design is given together with a full report on the breadboard testing of the linear motor drives and the self-calibrating control system. Specifications and a conceptual design of the Automatic Foundation Machine are provided as well as a complete description of the installation process and its labor and time estimates. The enclosed heliostat consists of an aluminized film reflector which is deployed on a lightweight, eight-strut frame mounted on a single pipe pedestal with azimuth and elevation drives and totally housed in an air supported enclosure. An open loop control system with self calibration capability directs centrally computed sun angles and steering commands to individual heliostats of a total system via 2-way multiplex methods over the field power distribution network. Totally mass-produced in conventional industrial factories, the preassembled components are shipped without restriction and are semi-automatically installed within 30-minute time cycles. Requiring no cleaning, the 30-year life cycle maintenance costs include two complete enclosure and reflector replacements. (WHK).

Download or read book Large Scale Solar Thermal Power written by Werner Vogel and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important contribution to the issue of renewable energy describes the technical and economical requirements of mass-produced solar thermal power plants, from the different types of power plants to the development needs and a massive development program. The authors - renowned and experienced experts in the field - show that solar thermal power plants, because of their simple technology, are easy to build with high production rates and therefore can play a substantial role in the rapid substitution of fossil fuels. On the basis of solar thermal power (using long distance transmission) and coal from substituted coal plants, a future energy system is described supplying gas and liquid fuels. This is the first discussion of a complete concept, of a crash-strategy, for the partial replacement of oil and natural gas.
