The storage system model has been developed in the simulation environment Matlab/Simulink®. The storage type under investigation is a packed bed thermal energy storage system which has the characteristics of a regenerator. Thermal energy can be stored and discharged as required via the HTF air. The air mass flow distribution is controlled by valves, and the mass flow by two blowers. The thermal storage operation strategy has a direct and significant impact on the energetic and economic efficiency of the solar tower power plants.}, language = {en} } @article{VieiradaSilvaSchwarzerHoffschmidtetal.2013, author = {Vieira da Silva, Maria Eugenia and Schwarzer, Klemens and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Pinheiro Rodrigues, Frederico and Schwarzer, Tarik and Costa Rocha, Paulo Alexandre}, title = {Mass transfer correlation for evaporation-condensation thermal process in the range of 70 °C-95 °C}, series = {Renewable energy}, volume = {Vol. 53}, journal = {Renewable energy}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1879-0682 (E-Journal); 0960-1481 (Print)}, pages = {174 -- 179}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{AlexopoulosBreitbachHoffschmidtetal.2008, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros and Breitbach, Gerd and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Stobbe, P.}, title = {Optimization of the geometry of porous SiC ceramic filtering modules using numerical methods}, series = {Developments in porous, biological and geopolymer ceramics : a collection of papers presented at the 31st International Conference on Advanced Ceramics and Composites, January 21 - 26, 2007, Daytona Beach, Florida ; [papers presented at the Symposium on Porous Ceramics: Novel Developments and Applications] / ed.: Manuel Brito ...

The open-volumetric receiver uses ambient air as heat transfer fluid and the hybridization is realized with a gas turbine. The Rankine cycle is heated by solar-heated air and/or by the gas turbine's flue gases. The plant can be operated in solar-only, hybrid parallel or combined cycle-only mode as well as in any intermediate load levels where the solar portion can vary between 0 to 100\%. The simulated plant is based on the configuration of a solar-hybrid power tower project, which is in planning for a site in Northern Algeria. The meteorological data for Barstow-Daggett was taken from the software meteonorm. The solar power tower simulation tool has been developed in the simulation environment MATLAB/Simulink and is validated.}, language = {en} } @article{HoffschmidtFendPitzPaaletal.2004, author = {Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Fend, Thomas and Pitz-Paal, Robert and Reutter, Oliver}, title = {Two novel high-porosity materials as volumetric receivers for concentrated solar radiation / Thomas Fend ; Robert Pitz-Paal ; Oliver Reutter ...
