We are experimenting with intelligent control systems for rural microgrid control for thermodynamic cogeneration systems. We wish to compare computer model test runs on the Innova Trinum or TurboCaldo solar thermodynamic systems, and hoping to find existing MATLAB SimuLink or TrnSys models for anny of these solar energy harvesting units.
(http://www.innova.co.it/eng/catalog/products/trinum.html) or TurboCaldo unit to experiment with as part of model predictive control for household or islanded smartgrids.
Perhaps a migrogrod model for the Trinum system would not be difficult to do using Anylogic.
dear dr prinsloo,
at present, no: I personally have no information about specific thermodynamic models of "trinum system". At least in the open literature.
In your book "solar tracking" (chap 15) you cited perhaps the only works about this engine.

Thank you Jose and Costante
perhaps one of the researchers from the company Innova in Italy (www.innovat.it) or one of their parner universities in Italy may have worked on thermodynamic modelling of the Trinum solar thermal system (Trinum - Solare Termodinamico a Concentrazione). Hoping an engineer from the research deparment at Via Pedro Alvares Cabrai C.da Lecco - Zona Industriale Rende (CS) - Italy will respond also.

gerro,
you may write to
(1) [email protected] (at university of genova) and/or
two of the authors of a paper "A Review of Recent Development in Smart Grid and Micro Grid Laboratories".
they probably can give you some information.
