With our large lab-infrastructure we provide services for thermal- and optical testing of components. Using advanced measurement techniques and evaluation methods.
- VLABS: Measuring of specular reflectance and scattering in the near-specular range
- Mirror material characterization
- Artificial soiling and characterization of incidence angle dependent attenuation due to dust
- Fringe Reflection Technique: Deflectometry assessment from small-scale 5cm x 5cm to large-scale 2mx4m reflective optics
- Measurement of temperature-dependent deformation of CSP mirrors and small scale optics
- Photogrammetry and laser scanning
- Hail tests
- Molten salt loop in lab-scale
- Climate chamber degradation tests
- Tracker testing based on international standards
- Heliostat test field with moving receiver
- Thermal performance test-loop for pressurized water
