Granted: 2012-10-25
Abstract: Abstract Solar energy collection apparatus comprises a solar energy receiver defining a primary target to receive directed sunlight. A field of heliostats is mounted for angular adjustment to optimally receive a beam of sunlight and direct it to the primary target of 5 the solar energy receiver. Actuator means is provided to effect said angular adjustment of each heliostat of the field. A secondary target at or spaced from said primary target is disposed so as not to be intercepted by said optimally received and directed beams of sunlight. A controller operably coupled to said actuator means is configured to sequentially cause, during operation of the solar energy collection apparatus, a 10 temporary angular adjustment of the respective said heliostats so as to divert the beam of sunlight received at each heliostat to said secondary target for a predetermined period of time. Recordal means is provided to record a representation of each diverted beam at the secondary target. The controller is also coupled to the recordal means and is further configured to respond to the representation of the diverted beam for the 15 respective heliostats when a parameter or element thereof deviates from a reference norm, by activating the actuator means to angularly adjust the corresponding heliostat to improve the accuracy of its receipt of said beam of sunlight and direction of the beam to the primary target, thereby compensating by closed loop control of the field of heliostats during operation of the apparatus for tolerances in heliostat and actuator 20 geometries. The controller is further configured to manage or control flux end thermal performance of the primary target and/or receiver by diverting one or more heliostat beams to the secondary target, which thereby serves as a stand-by receiver.
