  abstract  = {Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems are able to store energy cost-effectively in their integrated thermal energy storage (TES). By intelligently combining Photovoltaics (PV) systems with CSP, a further cost reduction of solar power plants is expected, as well as an increase in dispatchability and flexibility of power generation. PV-powered Resistance Heaters (RH) can be deployed to raise the temperature of the molten salt hot storage from 385 °C up to 565 °C in a Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC) plant. To avoid freezing and decomposition of molten salt, the temperature distribution in the electrical resistance heater is investigated in the present study. For this purpose, a RH has been modeled and CFD simulations have been performed. The simulation results show that the hottest regions occur on the electric rod surface behind the last baffle. A technical optimization was performed by adjusting three parameters: Shell-baffle clearance, electric rod-baffle clearance and number of baffles. After the technical optimization was carried out, the temperature difference between the maximum temperature and the average outlet temperature of the salt is within the acceptable limits, thus critical salt decomposition has been avoided. Additionally, the CFD simulations results were analyzed and compared with results obtained with a one-dimensional model in Modelica.},

  abstract  = {Despite the challenges of pioneering molten salt towers (MST), it remains the leading technology in central receiver power plants today, thanks to cost effective storage integration and high cost reduction potential. The limited controllability in volatile solar conditions can cause significant losses, which are difficult to estimate without comprehensive modeling [1]. This paper presents a Methodology to generate predictions of the dynamic behavior of the receiver system as part of an operating assistance system (OAS). Based on this, it delivers proposals if and when to drain and refill the receiver during a cloudy period in order maximize the net yield and quantifies the amount of net electricity gained by this. After prior analysis with a detailed dynamic two-phase model of the entire receiver system, two different reduced modeling approaches where developed and implemented in the OAS. A tailored decision algorithm utilizes both models to deliver the desired predictions efficiently and with appropriate accuracy.},

  abstract  = {Urban farming is an innovative and sustainable way of food production and is becoming more and more important in smart city and quarter concepts. It also enables the production of certain foods in places where they usually dare not produced, such as production of fish or shrimps in large cities far away from the coast. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to show students such concepts and systems in real life as part of courses: visits of such industry plants are sometimes not possible because of distance or are permitted by the operator for hygienic reasons. In order to give the students the opportunity of getting into contact with such an urban farming system and its complex operation, an industrial urban farming plant was set up on a significantly smaller scale. Therefore, all needed technical components like water aeriation, biological and mechanical filtration or water circulation have been replaced either by aquarium components or by self-designed parts also using a 3D-printer. Students from different courses like mechanical engineering, smart building engineering, biology, electrical engineering, automation technology and civil engineering were involved in this project. This "miniature industrial plant" was also able to start operation and has now been running for two years successfully. Due to Corona pandemic, home office and remote online lectures, the automation of this miniature plant should be brought to a higher level in future for providing a good control over the system and water quality remotely. The aim of giving the student a chance to get to know the operation of an urban farming plant was very well achieved and the students had lots of fun in "playing" and learning with it in a realistic way.},

Als wesentlicher Garant f{\"u}r den Erfolg der Forschungsarbeit muß die auf das jeweilige Projekt genau abgestimmte Meß- und Regelungstechnik angesehen werden. Hierbei z{\"a}hlt neben der Auswahl geeigneter Hardwarekomponenten auch die Softwareentwicklung unter einer leistungsstarken und zuverl{\"a}ssigen Programmierumgebung. Anhand des Aufbaus dreier Versuchsanlagen im Technikumsmaßstab soll das Anforderungsprofil an die Meßtechnik bis hin zur Umsetzung innerhalb der Anlage skizziert werden. Der Heißgasfiltrationspr{\"u}fstand im Heizkraftwerk der RWTH Aachen dient der Beobachtung des Reinigungsverhaltens keramischer Filterelemente bei der Heißgasentstaubung im Temperaturbereich bis 850 Grad C. Wesentlich f{\"u}r die Meßwerterfassung ist hierbei die Kopplung eines Orion-Datenloggers der Firma Schlumberger mit LabView 4.0. Im Hochtemperaturofen des Lehrstuhls werden instation{\"a}re Druckmessungen an einer keramischen Filterkerze w{\"a}hrend eines Abreinigungsimpulses bei 950 Grad C mit hoher Samplingrate durchgef{\"u}hrt. Hierbei {\"u}bernimmt eine durch LabView 4.0 angesteuerte E-Series Karte der Firma National Instruments die Signalaufnahme. Die katalytische Schadstoffreduktion und Entstaubung heißer Rauchgase bei 900 Grad C sind Ziele der Untersuchungen in einer erstellten Versuchsanlage mit einem Quarzglasreaktor. Die Signalerfassung und -konditionierung erfolgt {\"u}ber SCXI in Verbindung mit LabView 4.0, die Steuerung der Anlage {\"u}bernehmen zwei Multifunktionskarten (National Instruments).},
