Incorporating the Concept of Flexible Operation in the Design of Solar Collector Fields for Industrial Applications

This work introduces the concept of flexible operation in the design of solar thermal utility systems for low temperature processes. The design objectives are: (a) The supply of the thermal needs of the process (heat duty and minimum required temperature), and (b) the maximization of the operating t...
