Determination of Glint and Glare of Heliostat Fields Integrated on Building Façades.

Abstract: The "Vertical Heliostat Field" (VHF) concept proposes a solution to integrate solar heliostat fields into urban communities with acceptable optical efficiencies for Concentrating Solar Power systems. It is based on a heliostat field arranged on a vertical surface, conceived to be integrated in a building façade. Glare phenomenon has been distinguished as a critical aspect for a VHF facility integrated in an urban environment, as a potential source of hazard to nearby drivers, pedestrians or neighbors. The main… Show more
