This volume gives the research support for Phase I of the project. Each appendix specifically discusses the relationship of the Analog Test System (ATS) to the Recommended Power System (SPS) and to the research programs. Included are the following appendices: (A) optical-thermal-fluid analyses and experiments; (B) receiver subsystem; (C) system management-control and tracking subsystems; (D) mirror surfaces and mirror panels; (E) concentrator support structure; (F) survivability, maintenance and safety; (G) assessment of energy storage strategies and options; (H) investigation of power cycle, electrical production, and distribution options; (I) analysis of site dependent factors; (J) system and economic modeling and simulation; (K) instrumentation and data processing for the analog test system; and (L) FMDF concentrator/receiver wind tunnel test results.
