Csaba Singer untersucht die Kostensenkungspotenziale bei der Stromerzeugung mit solarthermischen Turmkraftwerken. Sein Ziel ist die Steigerung des Receiverwirkungsgrades und das Aufzeigen und Bewerten kritischer Aspekte von innovativen Receivertechnologien. Zunachst erfolgt eine Konzeptstudie, die dazu dient, den Stand der Technik der Solarturmkraftwerke mit ausgewahlten Receiveroptionen fur die Erhohung der Dampfprozesstemperaturen zu vergleichen. Diese Studie zeigt, dass die Direktabsorption auf der inneren Mantelflache des Receivers mit nach unten geoffneter Apertur und...
