  1. 1. Analysis of atmospheric influences on ratio thermography for solar tower systems

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Algebra, geometri och diskret matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Albin Englin; [2022]
    Keywords : Concentrated solar power; Ratio thermography; Shortwave infrared; Gray body assumption; Atmospheric compensation;

    Abstract : The knowledge of temperature and emissivity of the receiver are both critical for a solar tower power plant, in order to guarantee an efficient operation of the thermal receiver on the one hand, while monitoring any degradation of the receiver coating on the other hand. To make these measurements, a new thermographic system is currently being developed, using a multispectral camera working in the short wavelength infrared spectrum. READ MORE
