Micro heliostats can be deployed in small-scale concentrated solar power (CSP) plants to concentrate the sun's radiation for electricity generation, space or domestic water heating or industrial process heat. In contrast to conventional heliostats, the special feature of a micro heliostat is that it consists of dozens of parallel-moving, interconnected, rotatable mirror facets. The mirror facets array is fixed inside a box-shaped module and is protected from weathering and wind forces by a transparent glass cover. The choice of the building materials for the box, tracking mechanism and mirrors is largely dependent on the selected production process and the intended application of the micro heliostat. Special attention was paid to the material of the tracking mechanism as this has a direct influence on the accuracy of the micro heliostat. The choice of materials for the mirror support structure and the tracking mechanism is made in favor of plastic molded parts. A qualification assessment method has been developed by the SIJ in which a 3D laser scanner is used in combination with a coordinate measuring machine (CMM). For the validation of this assessment method, a single mirror facet was scanned and the slope deviation was computed.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BaumannTeixeiraBouraGoettscheetal.2011, author = {Baumann, Torsten and Teixeira Boura, Cristiano Jos{\´e} and G{\"o}ttsche, Joachim and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Schmitz, Stefan and Zunft, Stefan}, title = {Air-sand heat exchanger: materials and flow properties}, series = {SolarPACES 2011 : concentrating solar power and chemical energy systems : 20 - 23 September, 2011, Granada, Spain}, booktitle = {SolarPACES 2011 : concentrating solar power and chemical energy systems : 20 - 23 September, 2011, Granada, Spain}, address = {Granada}, pages = {1 CD-ROM}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FrickeZiolkoAnthrakidisetal.2011, author = {Fricke, Barbara and Ziolko, C. and Anthrakidis, Anette and Alexopoulos, Spiros and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Dillig, M. and Giese, F.}, title = {InnoSol - life cycle analysis of solar power tower plants}, series = {SolarPACES 2011 : concentrating solar power and chemical energy systems : 20 - 23 September, 2011, Granada, Spain}, booktitle = {SolarPACES 2011 : concentrating solar power and chemical energy systems : 20 - 23 September, 2011, Granada, Spain}, address = {Granada}, pages = {1 CD-ROM}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GorzalkaDahlkeGoettscheetal.2018, author = {Gorzalka, Philip and Dahlke, Dennis and G{\"o}ttsche, Joachim and Israel, Martin and Patel, Dhruvkumar and Prahl, Christoph and Schmiedt, Jacob Estevam and Frommholz, Dirk and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Linkiewicz, Magdalena}, title = {Building Tomograph-From Remote Sensing Data of Existing Buildings to Building Energy Simulation Input}, series = {EBC, Annex 71, Fifth expert meeting, October 17-19, 2018, Innsbruck, Austria}, booktitle = {EBC, Annex 71, Fifth expert meeting, October 17-19, 2018, Innsbruck, Austria}, pages = {17 Seiten}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LahrsKrisamHerrmann2023, author = {Lahrs, Lennart and Krisam, Pierre and Herrmann, Ulf}, title = {Envisioning a collaborative energy system planning platform for the energy transition at the district level}, series = {ECOS 2023.

Integrated multi-energy systems at the district level are a promising way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by exploiting economies of scale and synergies between energy sources. Planning district energy systems comes with many challenges in an ever-changing environment. Computational modelling established itself as the state-of-the-art method for district energy system planning. Unfortunately, it is still cumbersome to combine standalone models to generate insights that surpass their original purpose. Ideally, planning processes could be solved by using modular tools that easily incorporate the variety of competing and complementing computational models. Our contribution is a vision for a collaborative development and application platform for multi-energy system planning tools at the district level. We present challenges of district energy system planning identified in the literature and evaluate whether this platform can help to overcome these challenges. Further, we propose a toolkit that represents the core technical elements of the platform. Lastly, we discuss community management and its relevance for the success of projects with collaboration and knowledge sharing at their core.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SauerbornLiebenstundRaueetal.2017, author = {Sauerborn, Markus and Liebenstund, Lena and Raue, Markus and Mang, Thomas and Herrmann, Ulf and Dueing, Andreas}, title = {Analytic method for material aging and quality analyzing to forecast long time stability of plastic micro heliostat components}, series = {AIP Conference Proceedings}, volume = {1850}, booktitle = {AIP Conference Proceedings}, number = {1}, doi = {10.1063/1.4984388}, pages = {030045-1 -- 030045-8}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WarerkarSchmitzGoettscheetal.2009, author = {Warerkar, Shashikant and Schmitz, Stefan and G{\"o}ttsche, Joachim and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Reißel, Martin and Tamme, Rainer}, title = {Air-sand heat exchanger for high-temperature storage}, series = {Proceedings of the ASME 3rd International Conference on Energy Sustainability : July 19 - 23, 2009, San Francisco, California, USA.

Concentrated solar power (CSP) plants operated with molten salt as heat transfer and storage media are one opportunity to meet this challenge. Due to the high concentration factor of the solar tower technology the maximum process temperature can be further increased which ultimately decreases the levelized costs of electricity of the technology (LCOE). The development of an improved tubular molten salt receiver for the next generation of molten salt solar tower plants is the aim of this work. The receiver is designed for a receiver outlet temperature up to 600 °C. Together with a complete molten salt system, the receiver will be integrated into the Multi-Focus-Tower (MFT) in J{\"u}lich (Germany). The paper describes the basic engineering of the receiver, the molten salt tower system and a laboratory corrosion setup.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KreyerMuellerEsch2020, author = {Kreyer, J{\"o}rg and M{\"u}ller, Marvin and Esch, Thomas}, title = {A Map-Based Model for the Determination of Fuel Consumption for Internal Combustion Engines as a Function of Flight Altitude}, publisher = {DGLR}, address = {Bonn}, doi = {10.25967/490162}, pages = {13 Seiten}, year = {2020}, abstract = {In addition to very high safety and reliability requirements, the design of internal combustion engines (ICE) in aviation focuses on economic efficiency. The objective must be to design the aircraft powertrain optimized for a specific flight mission with respect to fuel consumption and specific engine power. Against this background, expert tools provide valuable decision-making assistance for the customer. In this paper, a mathematical calculation model for the fuel consumption of aircraft ICE is presented. This model enables the derivation of fuel consumption maps for different engine configurations. Depending on the flight conditions and based on these maps, the current and the integrated fuel consumption for freely definable flight emissions is calculated. For that purpose, an interpolation method is used, that has been optimized for accuracy and calculation time. The mission boundary conditions flight altitude and power requirement of the ICE form the basis for this calculation. The mathematical fuel consumption model is embedded in a parent program. This parent program presents the simulated fuel consumption by means of an example flight mission for a representative airplane. The focus of the work is therefore on reproducing exact consumption data for flight operations. By use of the empirical approaches according to Gagg-Farrar [1] the power and fuel consumption as a function of the flight altitude are determined. To substantiate this approaches, a 1-D ICE model based on the multi-physical simulation tool GT-Suite® has been created. This 1-D engine model offers the possibility to analyze the filling and gas change processes, the internal combustion as well as heat and friction losses for an ICE under altitude environmental conditions. Performance measurements on a dynamometer at sea level for a naturally aspirated ICE with a displacement of 1211 ccm used in an aviation aircraft has been done to validate the 1-D ICE model. To check the plausibility of the empirical approaches with respect to the fuel consumption and performance adjustment for the flight altitude an analysis of the ICE efficiency chain of the 1-D engine model is done. In addition, a comparison of literature and manufacturer data with the simulation results is presented.}, language = {en} }
