Economic evaluation of towers for central receiver systems [PDF]
So far, the tower is probably the most under-investigated component of solar thermal power tower plants. While the capacity of these plants is constantly increasing, also the tower dimensions are rising, calling for higher towers that can bear receivers of bigger size and weight.

Models of transient heat transfer for central tower receivers: A review [PDF]
Solar Power Tower (SPT) receivers are the most critical component of a SPT power plant, as they receive high incident solar flux on their external face while having a corrosive environment on their internal side. Due to the transient nature of solar energy, a steady-state analysis does not accurately reflect the stresses on the receiver.

Optical Performance of a Novel Two-Receiver Solar Central Tower System [PDF]
A novel idea of using two receivers on the same tower in a solar tower system is introduced and investigated. The idea is to have two receivers at the same tower at different heights and sharing the same heliostat field. The pointing strategy for each heliostat is to pick the receiver that gives the maximum optical efficiency. To investigate this idea,
