Solar Concentrating Technologies

We provide Research and consulting for solar furnace and solar power plant projects by the parallel (incremental and iterative) development of software for visualization, optimization, project management, and productivity forecasts.

Solar furnaces

See the following materials about our research activity:

"SCIENTIFIC VISUALIZATION FOR SOLAR CONCENTRATING SYSTEMS: COMPUTER SIMULATION PROGRAM FOR VISUAL & NUMERICAL ANALYSIS" was first presented at the National Solar Energy Conference (April 13-18, 1996, Asheville, NC, USA)

"Scientific Visualization for Design and Evaluation of Solar Concentrating Systems" was first presented at the 8th International Symposium on Solar Concentrating Technologies (October 6-11, 1996, Köln, Germany)

Solar power plants

See the following materials about our participation in large projects:

"CRIMEAN EXPERIMENTAL 5MW SOLAR POWER PLANT SPP-5" was published in "Sun at Work in Europe": June 1997. Vol. 12, No 2, pp. 11-12.

Here is a screen shot of a session with the dynamics model of
the CRIMEAN EXPERIMENTAL 5MW SOLAR POWER PLANT SPP-5
