摘要
The layout of the heliostat field of solar tower systems is optimized for maximum annual solar-to-chemical energy conversion efficiency in high-temperature thermochemical processes for solar fuels production. The optimization algorithm is based on the performance function that includes heliostat characteristics, secondary optics, and chemical receiver reactor characteristics at representative time steps for evaluating the annual fuel production rates. Two exemplary applications for solar fuels production are selected: the thermal reduction of zinc oxide as part of a two-step water-splitting cycle for hydrogen production, and the coal gasification for syngas production.
