High temperature heat pumps (HT HP) can be utilized to boost the salt temperature in the thermal energy storage (TES) of a Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC) system from 385 °C up to 565 °C. A PV field can supply the power for the HT HP, thus effectively storing the PV power as thermal energy. Besides cost-efficiently storing energy from the PV field, the power block efficiency of the overall system is improved due to the higher steam parameters. This paper presents a technical assessment of Brayton cycle heat pumps to be integrated in hybrid PV-CSP power plants. As a first step, a theoretical analysis was carried out to find the most suitable working fluid. The analysis included the fluids Air, Argon (Ar), Nitrogen (N2) and Carbon dioxide (CO2). N2 has been chosen as the optimal working fluid for the system. After the selection of the ideal working medium, different concepts for the arrangement of a HT HP in a PV-CSP hybrid power plant were developed and simulated in EBSILON®Professional. The concepts were evaluated technically by comparing the number of components required, pressure losses and coefficient of performance (COP).}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LuepfertHerrmannPriceetal.2004, author = {L{\"u}pfert, E. and Herrmann, Ulf and Price, Henry and Zarza, E. and Kistener, R.}, title = {Towards Standard Performance Analysis for Parabolic Trough Collector Fields}, series = {12th International Symposium Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems, October 6-8, 2004, Oaxaca Mexico ; SolarPACES International Symposium, 12}, booktitle = {12th International Symposium Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems, October 6-8, 2004, Oaxaca Mexico ; SolarPACES International Symposium, 12}, editor = {Ramos, C.}, publisher = {Instituto de Investigaciones Electricas}, address = {[s.l.]}, isbn = {968-6114-18-1}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LatzkeAlexopoulosKronhardtetal.2015, author = {Latzke, Markus and Alexopoulos, Spiros and Kronhardt, Valentina and Rend{\´o}n, Carlos and Sattler, Johannes Christoph}, title = {Comparison of Potential Sites in China for Erecting a Hybrid Solar Tower Power Plant with Air Receiver}, series = {Energy Procedia}, booktitle = {Energy Procedia}, issn = {1876-6102}, doi = {10.1016/j.egypro.2015.03.142}, pages = {1327 -- 1334}, year = {2015}, 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{KruegerAnthrakidisFischeretal.2009, author = {Kr{\"u}ger, Dirk and Anthrakidis, Anette and Fischer, Stephan and Lokurlu, Ahmet and Walder, Markus and Croy, Reiner and Quaschning, Volker}, title = {Experiences with solar steam supply for an industrial steam network in the P3 Project}, series = {SolarPACES 2009 : electricity, fuels and clean water powered by the sun ; 15 - 18 September 2009, Berlin, Germany ; the 15th SolarPACES conference ; proceedings}, booktitle = {SolarPACES 2009 : electricity, fuels and clean water powered by the sun ; 15 - 18 September 2009, Berlin, Germany ; the 15th SolarPACES conference ; proceedings}, publisher = {Deutsches Zentrum f.

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} } @inproceedings{KollSchwarzboezlHenneckeetal.2009, author = {Koll, Gerrit and Schwarzb{\"o}zl, Peter and Hennecke, Klaus and Hartz, Thomas and Schmitz, Mark and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard}, title = {The Solar Tower J{\"u}lich - a research and demonstration plant for central receiver systems}, series = {SolarPACES 2009 : electricity, fuels and clean water powered by the sun ; 15 - 18 September 2009, Berlin, Germany ; the 15th SolarPACES conference ; proceedings}, booktitle = {SolarPACES 2009 : electricity, fuels and clean water powered by the sun ; 15 - 18 September 2009, Berlin, Germany ; the 15th SolarPACES conference ; proceedings}, publisher = {Deutsches Zentrum f.
