INSTALLATION AND DEMONSTRATION OF THREE LARGE SOLAR THERMAL COLLECTORS FIELDS SUPPLYING INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES HEAT

摘要

InSun is a European FP7 project coordinated by ZAFH-NET, has EURAC as a research partner and Soltigua, Solid, Solera, Berger Fleischwaren and LacteasCobreros as industrial partners. Within this project solar heat, generated on roof or ground mounted collectors, will be used to substitute conventional produced heat at different temperature levels. In three demonstration plants large scale solar systems with concentrating collectors (Fresnel and parabolic trough) and flat plat collectors with a maximum heating power of 1 MW each are installed to supply heat to different production processes at different climatic conditions. The design, construction, system integration, optimized control and a detailed system monitoring are covered within the project. The experience gained in heat implementation for different production processes and the monitoring data will be used for intensive market deployment activities to support the development of this young and innovative technology.
