Guidance page for practical work 1: modeling of a thermodynamic solar plant (setting out)

This guidance page deals with the study the operation of solar power plants and shows how they can be realistically modeled with Thermoptim. The practical work is focused on the modeling of a SEGS type solar plant developed by the company Luz, represented as a simple variant of a Rankine cycle, where the boiler is replaced by a steam generator in which the thermal fluid is heated the collector array.

It requires two external classes, "solar concentrator" and "Dowtherm A".
