Proceedings: fourth parabolic-dish solar-thermal power program review

Conference · Tue Feb 01 04:00:00 EST 1983

OSTI ID:6781037

The primary objective of the review was to present the results of activities within the Parabolic Dish Technology and Applications Development element of the Department of Energy's Solar Thermal Energy Systems Program. The Review consisted of 6 technical sessions, covering Stirling, Organic Rankine and Brayton module technologies, associated hardware and test results to date; concentrator development and progress; economic analyses; and current international dish development activities. Two panel discussions, concerning industry issues affecting solar thermal dish development and dish technology from a utility/user perspective, were also held. These Proceedings contain the texts of presentations made at the review, which are abstracted separately for EDB.
