Reliability of Materials for Solar Energy. Volume II, Part 1. Workshop Proceedings.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:12277292
Recommendations and conclusions of the Reliability of Materials workshop for solar energy are presented in Volume I. Volume II contains the papers presented during the workshop including the introductory papers. Following the introductory talks the attendees were divided into working groups. Design presentations were given i n each working group describing their respective solar technology. The design speakers were asked to describe their particular system, identify important parameters such as operating temperatures, pressures, etc., and discuss material choices.that had been contemplated by the design community. .The design presentations were followed by discussions of limitations of materials. The materials presentations were directed toward describing the potential effect of specific degradation mechanisms on the respective solar technology. Following these opening presentations each working group was engaged in open discussion to develop recommendations. Most of the papers contained in volume II are copies of the original viewgraphs or transcripts presented during the workshop. Authors were given the opportunity to review and revise their manuscripts following the workshop. As a compilation of design and material pertinent to solar energy technologies, Volume II serves as a useful source of information for both design and materials.
