Development of a mobile, stand-alone test facility for solar thermal collectors and systems

Testing of solar thermal systems and components requires different standards and thus different test facilities. Usually each facility is individually designed and constructed for tests according to a specific test method. For performing tests of solar thermal systems and collectors according to the most popular standards, test laboratories or manufactu-rers have to invest a huge amount of staff time, resources and capital to set up the required test facilities.
