the same as the units installed LaJet’s Solar Plant I in Warner Springs, California. A device that measures flux intensity with a movable Kendall radiometer wa1 used to map the flux distribution at the concentrator’s receiver aperture plane, and three-dimensional flux intensity plots and flux contour maps were produced from the data. Numerical integration of the data was performed to obtain an estimate of the total integrated power into the aperture plane.Sandia National Laboratories Distributed Receiver Test Facility (DRTF)
