Modelling and simulation of CSP plants with direct-steam generation

Short description

CEA (a French governmental organization) is involved in CSP plants design since many years. Dynamic modelling of CSP systems and coupling these systems with heat and power sources is one of its activities in this field.

Computer dynamic models of LFR or PT solar fields with direct-steam generation

Dynamic System Modeling of the LFR or PT solar field with absorber tubes, external piping, water/steam drum, pumps and valves + power block, thermal storage and others...

A library as been developed with Modelica to model CSP systems with different possible HTF and a wide range of usage of heat.

Main technical features

Innovative aspects

From daily to yearly dynamic simulations to assess the dynamic behaviour of the plant and its annual yield.

Applications

Design LFR or PT components, prototypes or plants.

Design and tuning of control for CSP systems.
