Abstract

Concentrating solar power plants are experiencing an increasing share in the renewable energy generation market. Among them, parabolic trough plants are the most commercially mature technology. These plants still experience many challenges, one of which is the cyclic daily start-up and shut-down procedures. These pose new challenges to industrially mature components like the steam generator system, as frequent load changes might decrease their lifetime considerably due to cyclic thermo-mechanical stress loads. In this context, the header and coil design is a promising configuration to minimize the stresses.
