The IEC 62862 series covers various aspects of solar thermal electric plants. The main objective of the IEC 62862 series is to provide various design, testing, and implementation requirements for solar thermal electric plants.
PD IEC/TS 62862-1-2 is one of the parts of a series of documents that defines the procedures for the creation of annual solar radiation data sets (ASR) for solar thermal electricity (STE) plant simulation.
The scope of application of PD IEC/TS 62862-1-2 refers to the needs associated with solar thermal power plant projects and is mainly related to the simulation of an annual period with a solar radiation sum close to a normal annual value (from among an estimation of all possible annual values).
In addition to the definition of procedures needed for the ASR construction, its components and parameters will be also described.
PD IEC/TS 62862-1-2 on solar thermal electric plants is useful for:
Solar thermal power plants generate electricity by using the sun's energy to heat a fluid to a high temperature. This fluid then transfers its heat to water, which transforms into superheated steam.
PD IEC/TS 62862-1-2 assists you in various stages of planning, design, and startup of a solar thermal electricity plant, engineering, and economic studies frequently require simulation of plant power production, as well as an analysis of the response of its various components and systems.
PD IEC/TS 62862-1-2 provides you with analysis of typical meteorological year (TMY) data which can be used in annual plant electricity production studies and engineering studies associated with a solar thermal power plant project.
Guidance in PD IEC/TS 62862-1-2 assists you in simulation studies using precise, organized, and standardized information of the solar resource and other meteorological variables.
