Study on Outlet Temperature Control of External Receiver for Solar Power Tower

Energies, 2021
Due to the change of direct normal irradiance (DNI) and the change of output power load, the receiver of the solar tower is in an unstable state in the actual operation. In this paper, a 100 MW external cylindric receiver is designed and modelled.
