During solar operation, each heliostat is aligned individually in such a way that the overall surface normal bisects the angle between the sun's position and the aim point coordinate on the receiver. Due to various tracking error sources, achieving accurate alignment ≤1 mrad for all the heliostats with respect to the aim points on the receiver without a calibration system can be regarded as unrealistic. Therefore, a calibration system is necessary not only to improve the aiming accuracy for achieving desired flux distributions but also to reduce or eliminate spillage. An overview of current larger-scale central receiver systems (CRS), tracking error sources and the basic requirements of an ideal calibration system is presented. Leading up to the main topic, a description of general and specific terms on the topics heliostat calibration and tracking control clarifies the terminology used in this work. Various figures illustrate the signal flows along various typical components as well as the corresponding monitoring or measuring devices that indicate or measure along the signal (or effect) chain. The numerous calibration systems are described in detail and classified in groups. Two tables allow the juxtaposition of the calibration methods for a better comparison. In an assessment, the advantages and disadvantages of individual calibration methods are presented.}, language = {en} } @article{HenneckeSchwarzboezlHoffschmidtetal.2007, author = {Hennecke, Klaus and Schwarzb{\"o}zl, Peter and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and G{\"o}ttsche, Joachim and Koll, G. and Beuter, M. and Hartz, T.}, title = {The solar power tower J{\"u}lich - a solar thermal power plant for test and demonstration of air receiver}, series = {Solar energy and human settlement : Elektronische Ressource : proceedings of ISES world congress 2007 ; (Vol. I - Vol. V) / [ISES Solar World Congress.
