Thermographic Monitoring of Solar Tower Power Plants – SPTC
* The system includes up to eight high-resolution HD-infrared thermographic cameras with special calibration for accurate temperature measurement with the highest lateral resolution
* Super-telephoto lens with a 265 mm focal length to ensure the best possible measurement conditions
* Accurate temperature measurement of each individual tube (diameter 50 mm) for all absorber panels
* Fully redundant industrial solution
* Special software displaying the exact absorber temperature distribution
* Connection to the power plant control system for data transfer, backup and storage
* Weatherproof housing with heating, cooling, additional solar protection and a special protective window mounted on a mast with fine adjustment
Automated Monitoring of Thermal Solar Tower Plants by Means of Thermography
The absorber tubes of a solar tower power plant are heated up intensely by the concentrated solar radiation of the heliostats during operation. The SPTC measures the resulting temperatures and their local distribution on the absorber panels without any interaction of an operator. The system transfers the measured values to the control system, which calculates the signals for controlling the individual heliostats. In this way, optimum absorption behaviour is set, which ensures the efficient operation of the plant.
