Control of Solar Energy Systems (Advances in Industrial Control)

Control of Solar Energy Systems details the main solar energy systems, problems involved with their control, and how control systems can help in increasing their efficiency. Thermal energy systems are explored in depth, as are photovoltaic generation and other solar energy applications such as solar furnaces and solar refrigeration systems. This second and updated edition of Advanced Control of Solar Plants includes new material on: solar towers and solar tracking; heliostat calibration, characterization and offset correction; solar radiation, estimation, prediction, and computation; and integrated control of solar plants. This new edition contains worked examples in the text as well as proposed exercises and simulation models and so will be of great use to the student and academic, as well as the industrial practitioner.

Firstly, this book proposes a P-radius based set-membership estimation method to compute a zonotopecontaining the real states of a system, which are consistent with the disturbances and the measurement noise. Secondly, this book deals with the problem of output feedback control. Among the approaches from the literature, the implementation of robust predictive techniques based on tubes of trajectories is developed. The zonotopic set-membership estimation improves the quality of the estimation, as well as the performance of the control, for systems subject to unknown, but bounded disturbances and measurement noise.
