Dear Paul,

The picture below is a graph plotted based on the simulation of CSP-PTC plant in a location with high solar irradiation (Lhasa). I found that the graph plotted when the TES hours is 0, the trend of the curve is quite different from other cases with TES. Although I found some similar trend from some studies but this graph seems deviates a lot around the SM value of 8, may I know is this trend normal or do I make some mistakes during the simulation?

Hope to hear from you soon!

Best Regards,
Weng Pin.

Hi Weng Pin,

I'm not sure what is causing that anomaly in your results.

Best regards,
Paul.
