“…They showed a variation of the Strouhal number multiplied by 2 as a function of Reynolds number that ranged from about 1 to 1.5; that is, the conventional Strouhal number was about 0.16 to 0.24. There are comprehensive wind tunnel tests of model heliostats (e.g., Peterka, et al, 1989), CFD models (Wang, et al, 2009), and field tests (Strachan andHouser, 1993, Ho, et al, 2012) that address various aspects of heliostat wind induced loads together with the wind speeds and their transients. The maximum static azimuth moment is typically determined for near-vertical heliostats canted into the wind with angles of attack in the range of about 20 degrees (Heller and Peters, 1989).…”
