Abstract
The objective of this chapter is to describe the distributed collector field and the models used for its simulation and control. The process considered is the distributed solar collector field ACUREX of the “Plataforma Solar de Almería” (PSA). This is an installation which belongs to the Spanish “Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas” (CIEMAT) of the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Tourism, and is jointly operated by the CIEMAT and the “Deutsche Forschungsanstal für Luft-und Raumfahrt” (DLR), of Germany. It is the largest European test center for solar thermal energy applications.
