Solar radiation attenuation in solar tower plants
Solar Energy, 2012Abstract With the advent of the first commercial solar power tower plants with a rated power in the 10–20 MW range, scale-up to larger 20–50 MW commercial plants is being considered ( Lata et al., 2010 , Herring, 2009 ) in the vast arid regions of the sunbelt.

Solar updraft tower power generation
Solar Energy, 2016Abstract Solar updraft tower power generation has been demonstrated to be a promising approach for future applications of solar radiation to provide energy. In this paper, the history of the solar updraft tower power plant (SUTPP, also called solar chimney power plant) technology is reviewed, its characteristics are presented, and its principle is ...

Aplanatic beam-down solar towers
Nonimaging Optics: Efficient Design for Illumination and Solar Concentration XVI, 2019The pragmatic virtues of ground-level receivers in solar towers have long been recognized, but the associated beam-down optics reduce concentration, resulting in higher heat loss and cost, or the need for an actively-cooled tertiary concentrator that incurs additional optical losses.

Dual-receiver concept for solar towers
Solar Energy, 2006A new dual receiver concept improves the adaptation of the central receiver to the steam cycle in a solar thermal power plant. By combination of an open volumetric air heater with a tubular evaporator section the dual receiver concept profits from the advantages of these two basic concepts while their characteristic problems are avoided.
