10 MWe Solar Thermal Central Receiver Pilot Plant design day performance monograph
Performance of the 10 MWe Solar Thermal Central Receiver Pilot Plant near Barstow, California, is evaluated against the design day performance predictions. Actual conditions at the pilot plant were assessed and used to calculate plant performance. The effects of weather, available heliostats, mirror reflectivity, field and receiver efficiency, and turbine efficiencies are presented and discussed.
