Following an introductory chapter to CSP systems and the fundamental principles of performance assessment, individual chapters explore the component performance of mirrors and receivers. Further expert-written chapters look at system performance assessment, durability testing, and solar resource forecasting for CSP systems. A final chapter gives an outlook on the actual methods and instruments for performance and durability assessment that are under development. The Performance of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) Systems: Analysis, Measurement, and Assessment is an essential reference text for research and development professionals and engineers working on concentrated solar power systems, as well as for postgraduate students studying CSP. Presents a unique, single literature source for a complete overview of the performance assessment tools and methods currently used for concentrated solar power (CSP) technology Written by a team of experts in the field of CSP Provides information on the state-of-the-art of modeling, measurement, and assessment of the performance of CSP components and systems in a comprehensive, compact, and complete manner 410 0$aWoodhead Publishing in energy. 606 $aSolar energy$xResearch 606 $aSolar collectors 615 0$aSolar energy$xResearch. 615 0$aSolar collectors. 676 $a621.472 700 $aHeller$b Peter$c(Aerospace engineer),$0153472 702 $aHeller$b Peter W.$f1957- 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910583010203321 996 $aThe performance of concentrated solar power (CSP) systems$91979747 997 $aUNINA
