Abstract:This work presents a comparative study between direct steam generation central receiver solar power plants working at live steam conditions similar to those found in commercial plants. PS10 and PS20 by Abengoa Solar use a single-receiver, producing saturated steam, whereas Sierra SunTower by e-Solar and Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System (ISEGS) by BrightSource use dual-receiver technology producing superheated steam.
The system analysis includes individual studies for each subsystem: sola… Show more
