... it is contained in. Existing methods to heat margarine have a high hourly cost of production and use fossil fuels which have been shown to have a negative impact on the environment. Thus, we perform an analytical feasibility study of using solar thermal power as an alternative energy source for the margarine...

... cover to minimize wind loads. Schell [ 9 ] noted that high optical performance at reduced complexity and cost can be achieved for heliostats by utilizing small mirrors, although with a surface area of 1.14 m 2 , which is significantly larger than those analyzed in Ref. [ 8 ]. solar thermal power...

.... Solar materials are a key part of solar thermal power systems. The materials include solar spectral selective coatings, high-temperature heat transfer materials, high-temperature thermal storage materials, and high-temperature absorber materials. Coating materials are divided into solar selective...
