Design a New Receiver for the Central Tower of Solar Energy

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Heat loss is an important factor in the performance of the solar receiver for concentrated solar systems (CSP). This study presents a proposed model for a new design for the receiver using an evacuated tube that has been performed to reduce convection ...

Personalized Selumetinib Dosing in Pediatric Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Insights From a Pilot Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate selumetinib exposure using therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas (PN), assess interpatient pharmacokinetic variability, and explore the relationship between drug exposure, clinical response, and adverse effects.

A Maintenance Policy for Central Tower Receiver Subjected to Creep-Fatigue Damage

SolarPACES Conference Proceedings
This study focuses on the central receiver of solar tower plants, which is subjected to extreme heat fluxes, high temperatures, and thermal gradients leading to degradation mechanisms such as creep, fatigue, and corrosion. Although studies in literature

Development of an Elevation–Fresnel Linked Mini-Heliostat Array

Energies, 2020
Heliostats are critical components of solar tower technology and different strategies have been proposed to reduce their costs; among them diminishing their size to reduce wind loads or linking nearby heliostats mechanically, to reduce the overall number

Progress and Prospects of TES for Central Receiver-Based CSP Plants

SolarPACES Conference Proceedings
This review categorizes the thermal energy storage (TES) technologies—sensible heat, latent heat, and thermochemical storage—and evaluates their development, application, and performance within central receiver-based concentrated solar power plants ...

Adherence to Protocol Recommendations for Children With Wilms Tumour in Two Consecutive Studies in the United Kingdom and Ireland—Does Variation Matter?

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilms tumour (WT) has excellent event‐free and overall survival (OS). However, small differences exist between countries participating in the same international study. This led us to examine variation in adherence to protocol recommendations as a potential contributing factor.

Sirolimus for Extracranial Arteriovenous Malformations: A Scoping Review of the Evidence in Syndromic and Non‐Syndromic Cases

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.

Large-Scale Production of Heliostats

SolarPACES Conference Proceedings
Heliostats are the main cost factor of solar tower plants. To optimize them in terms of cost, it is mandatory to estimate the fabrication cost. A method to do so is presented and applied to a sample heliostat.
