The University Network REUNET and the European Project EUROSUNMED, in partnership with the multi-disciplinary Faculty of Ouarzazate and MASEN, with the support of the GIZ “DKTI” programme and within the framework of the partnership convention REUNET/GIZ-Energy, organized a training on Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) for PhD students from 24 to 27 April 2017 in Ouarzazate (Morocco).
Sixty PhD students in the renewable energy domain with a strong knowledge in thermodynamics, thermal and mass transfer and fluid mechanics process engineering attended the training.
The main topics addressed during the training were:
- Solar potentials
- Basic knowledge of thermodynamic and thermal transfer
- Concentrating thermodynamic solar
- CSP essential principles
- Technology of cylindrical parabolic trough collectors
- Concentrating thermodynamic solar collectors : technology and functioning
- Heat transfr fluids
- Thermal storage for CSP plants
- Power blocks
- Modelling of concentrated solar power plant with parabolic trough and study of their efficiency
- Dimensioning of a CSP plant
- Setting up of a CSP project
