Visual HFLCAL - A Software Tool for Layout and Optimisation of Heliostat Fields [PDF]
, 2009 HFLCAL is a program for layout and optimization of heliostat fields of central receiver systems (CRS) based on annual performance calculation. Computation time for performance estimation is saved by using a simplified mathematical model for the concentrator optics: the reflected image of each heliostat is described by a circular normal distribution ...
