  2. Chart 2 Contents • Motivation/Solar mirrors • Outdoor testing • Accelerated laboratory testing • Standardization of testing procedures • Methodology to correlate accelerated aging of aluminum reflectors with outdoor exposure

  3. Chart 3 Motivation • Durability of CSP components crucial for success of the technology • Solar field and reflectors are responsible for a considerable amount of investment costs • Life time prediction is important for planning of projects (life time goals 20 years and more) • So far few standards exist and are not adapted for CSP technology

  4. Chart 4 OPAC laboratory  Optical Aging Characterization Laboratory  Joint project DLR/CIEMAT at the Plataforma Solar de Almería  Fields of work:  Optical characterization  Durability, Aging, Life time prediction

  5. Chart 5 Glass mirrors • Most common reflector • Experience from over 30 years, excellent stability • High specular reflectance • New lead free, water soluble paints need to prove durability 0.95 – 4 mm [AGC]

  6. Chart 6 Alternative reflectors Aluminum mirrors  Thin, light weight, flexible  Lower reflectance  Durability issues Polymer films  Thin, light weight  Good reflectance, lower specularity  Less experience [NREL]

  7. Chart 7 Outdoor Exposure • Extensive outdoor exposure campaign (10 sites) • Almeria, Tabernas, Gran Canaria, Abu Dhabi, Oujda Missour, Erfoud, Zagora, Tan Tan, Ben Guerir • More sites planned, or from cooperating institutions • Variety of site conditions, from urban over coastal to desert

  12. Chart 12 Accelerated Testing • Laboratory tests try to provoke aging in accelerated but realistic way • By choosing more severe parameters: • Temperature • Humidity • Irradiance (UV) • Cycles • Chemicals, pollutants (NaCl, acids, soiling) • Abrasion (particles, brushes)

  13. Chart 13 Accelerated Laboratory Tests Combinations/advanced tests • NSS + UV/humidity Standard tests • NSS + Artificial Soiling • NSS (ISO 9227) • Damp Heat + Artificial Soling • CASS (ISO 9227) • UV/Humidity + Artificial Soiling • Damp Heat (IEC 62108) • Humidity Freeze + Artificial Soiling • UV/Humidity (ISO 11507) • CASS + Sand Abrasion • Humidity Freeze (IEC 62108) • NSS + Sand Abrasion • Kesternich (DIN 50018) • UV/humidity + Sand Abrasion • UV Test • Machu Test • Immersion Test Challenge: find the best suited tests and parameters

  17. Chart 17 Standardization/Lifetime prediction • AENOR (Spanish standardization agency) developed a standard with minimum requirements for glass mirrors Reflectance and shape (guidelines from SolarPACES Task III) Ageing tests  Exposure to neutral salt spray test (NSS)  Exposure to copper accelerated acetic acid salt spray (CASS)  Condensation test  Cyclical exposure to temperature and humidity  UV radiation exposure test Mechanical durability resistance  Mechanical tests  Abrasion resistance test  Impact resistance test  Safety performance under accidental impact test
