Solar-thermal central-receiver research study. Interim report [PDF]

, 1977
A performance analysis and economic study has been completed of a cavity-type line central receiver and single-axis parabolic cylinder focusing heliostat array for generation of steam for electrical power. A solar thermal power plant was sized to produce 100 MWe at 2:00 p.m. of winter solstice. The system concept is presented.
