Theory solar radiationfinite distance between earth and sun

so sunlight is not parallel Sonnenlicht nicht parallel but divergent

geometrical circumference in about 4,65 mrad

sun is not a Lambert emitter because intensity decreases at boundary

11Industrial energy management

• State of the art: heat transfer oil, ϑmax=320°C, at higher Temp.

thermal cracking, under pressure up to 400°C; production of H2 and reduction of vacuum

• future: solar boiling at pmax 10MPa and ϑmax=320°C, dificulties:piping and flow pattern

heat carrier fluids in farm power palnts

12Industrial energy management

Spot focus systems

13Industrial energy management

Spot focus systems: solar tower power plant

principle: individual biaxial adjustable mirros (Heliostates)reflects the sunlight to a focal spot

14Industrial energy management

• concentrated solar radiation 0,3-1MW/m²

• enable max. temperature > 1000°C
