Assessment of solar options for small power systems applications. Volume III. Analysis of concepts [electronic resource]

Show other versions (1)

A comparative analysis of solar thermal conversion concepts that are potentially suitable for development as small electric power systems (1 to 10 MWe) is given. Seven generic types of collectors, together with associated subsystems for electric power generation, were considered. The collectors can...
