Hybrid Deep Learning and First-Principles Model for Predictive Control of Solar Direct Steam Generation
Linear Fresnel Reflector (LFR) systems for Direct Steam Generation (DSG) exhibit strong nonlinear and transient dynamics due to diurnal solar variability, making real-time control challenging. To address this, a Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU)-based deep neural network surrogate replaces the computationally intensive first-...
