SAM Fresnel model for saturated steam conditions in turbine inlet was created by luiscoco

Dear Sirs,

Is it possible in SAM to model a Fresnel Solar Field with saturated steam conditions (for example 55 bar and 270ºC) at solar field output?, I mean to avoid steam superheating section in solar field and to include only preheating feedwater and boiling sections in solar field.

Puerto Errado 1 and 2 Fresnel Novatec Projects presents steam saturated conditions in Turbine inlet.

Best Regards,

LUIS COCO

Dear Luis Coco,

It is not possible to model the linear Fresnel system with only saturated steam because SAM's power cycle model assumes some superheat.

Best regards,
Paul.
