Modelling strategies for porous structures as solar receivers in central receiver systems: A review
Abstract An international effort is being made to contribute to greener electricity production. Solar Thermal Electricity (STE) has emerged as the favourite candidate due to the advantages associated with it such as dispatchability, maturity and scalability. Particular interest is raised by Central Receiver Systems (CRSs) due to their ability to work

SoFiA – A Novel Simulation Tool for Central Receiver Systems
AbstractA new simulation environment named SoFiA for the Solar Field Assessment for Central Receiver Systems (CRS) has been developed. CRS technology entails a higher degree of complexity in analysis and design relative to other CSP technologies. SoFiA approaches these difficulties in a staged way with different quality levels.
