Design and Implementation of the Solar Field and Thermal Storage System Controllers for a Parabolic Trough Solar Power Plant

MDPI 2024-01-12

Dynamic simulation provides an efficient approach for improving the efficiency of parabolic trough power plants and control circuits. In the dynamic simulation, the possibilities and operating conditions of the plant are evaluated regarding materials, processes, emissions, or economics. Several studies related to the dynamic simulation of the parabolic trough technology are summarised and discussed in this work. This study is the first research that presents a thorough description of the advanced control circuits used in the solar field and thermal storage system of a parabolic trough power plant. This power plant was implemented using advanced process simulation software (APROS). The dynamic model was built based on the real specifications of the power plant.
