“…In a first approach the dimensioning as well as construction costs for a solar tower were calculated and the tower cost vs. tower height function was estimated (sbp Solar Tower Design) by designing, calculating and costing several towers, drawing on sbp's several decade long experience of designing towers and high-rise buildings [6]. The findings were compared to established tower cost vs. tower height functions (SAM [NREL] & Delsol3) [7], and the newly determined results used for power tower LCoE calculations (Tab. 5).…”

“…The total exergetic solar power input to CTR system is given by ExnormalI=QnormalInormalηnormals=QnormalI143TnormalaTnormals+13()TaTs4where T s ≅ 5600 K is apparent black body temperature of sun and T a is atmospheric temperature. The average heliostat packing density, which is the ratio of mirror area to the field area and from the optimized ray trace analysis of shadowing and blocking, is typically in the range from 0.2 to 0.25 . The alignment of heliostats is shown in Figure .…”
