Skills:
* Translate user requirements into processes and programs. * Try to make sure I understand the problem before starting to make changes. No matter how simple a change request may be. * Determine the difference between the users needs and wants, and how that may affect others and the overall application. * Try to make improvements when and where I can. * Document code when and where I can. * Let the machine do what its good at while trying to get it to do it as efficiently as possible. * Try not to re-invent the wheel. Use the system features and not write my own if I can help it. * Try to keep the user informed within a process with things like messages, help information and progress bars. * Try to balance modularizing of processes with logical flow and with readability and ease of maintainability and re-usability. * Try for consistency and standardization within and between processes. * Try to create code that someone just newly hired or myself in 2 or more years time can easily follow and modify as needed. * Try to talk with the user support people to see if a users request makes sense for them, anyone else using the feature, the application as a whole and the business rules. * Try to actively listen.

Abstract:
A solar power plant includes central receiver modules arranged in a regular pattern. Each central receiver module includes a tower, a central receiver mounted on the tower, and a heliostat array bounded by a polygon. The heliostat array includes heliostats with mirrors for reflecting sunlight to the central receiver. The heliostats are grouped in linear rows and each of the rows is parallel to another row. The locations of the heliostats are staggered between adjacent rows. The power plant also includes a power block for aggregating power from the central receivers and power conduits for transferring power from the central receivers to the power block.
Heat Transfer Fluid Flow Rate And Temperature Regulation System
A system for regulating the temperature and flow rate of a heat transfer fluid for use in a hybrid steam-generating plant is described. A bypass section may be incorporated into the piping network of a primary steam-generating source to route heat transfer fluid from a hot source to a mixer downstream of at least one heat exchanger. Heat transfer fluid from the hot source may be mixed with cooler heat transfer fluid exiting the heat exchanger in the event that the supply from a secondary steam-generating source is lost or becomes intermittent. The result is a system that maintains a constant flow rate of heat transfer fluid through the heat exchangers while minimizing adverse temperature gradient effects that may result from steam production variability and plant operation outside of design point parameters.
