Short-term Training on Optical and Thermal Characterisation of Solar Receivers/Reactors in High-Flux Solar Simulators
21 July 2023
IMDEA Energía organises a Short-term training for Technical staff and Scientists that will be held on 21 September 2023 in Madrid, Spain.
The course is designed for engineers, researchers and representatives from European CSP industry and companies who want to be trained on real CSP hardware.
This course focuses on optical and thermal characterisation and measurements of solar receivers and reactors in high-flux solar simulators. The training consists of both theoretical and practical modules.
The training will include visits to the solar simulators at IMDEA Energy Institute, including the High-Flux Solar Simulator (KIRAN-42), and also the laboratory facilities of the institute. All the activities, theoretical and experimental training, are within the scope of the following topics:
- High flux solar simulators: overview, technology and applications;
- Optical characterisation: overview and technology;
- Thermal characterisation: overview and technology;
- Solar receivers and reactors technologies and applications;
- Application of high flux solar reactors for characterisation of solar receivers and reactors;
- Practical test cases.
