The Wind Test on Heat Loss from Three Coil Cavity Receiver for a Parabolic Dish Collector [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
The heat loss from cavity receiver in parabolic dish system determines the efficiency and cost effectiveness of the system. A modified three coil solar cavity receiver of inner wall area approximately three times of single coil receiver, is ...

Experimental testing of a high-flux cavity receiver [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2017
A new tubular cavity receiver for direct steam generation, ‘SG4’, has been built and tested on-sun based on integrated optical and thermal modelling. The new receiver achieved an average thermal efficiency of 97.1±2.1% across several hours of testing, and reduced the losses by more than half, compared to the modelled performance of the previous SG3 ...

Elliptical Reflective Cavity To Couple A Burner With A Receiver

open access: yes, 2016
A reflective elliptical cavity is analysed to couple a cylindrical burner with a receiver made of three arrays of thermophotovoltaic cells. The advantage of the elliptical shape is that burner and receiver can be placed in the two foci of the ellipse; while in the circular cavity they should be both placed in the centre.

Transient Analysis of a Molten Salt Cavity Receiver

open access: yesEnergy Procedia, 2014
AbstractA transient analysis of a molten salt cavity receiver is presented. A two-node model, which is the theoretical basis for transient analysis, is developed for the receiver. During the transient process, the energy variation of different part of the model is researched experimentally. Especially, a transient variation process of both the receiver

Windeinfluss auf Cavity-Receiver für solare Turmkraftwerke [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aufgrund ihrer geringen Strahlungsverluste sind Cavity-Receiver eine vielversprechende Option für Hochtemperaturanwendungen in solaren Turmkraftwerken. In bisherigen Untersuchungen zu konvektiven Verlusten dieser Receiverart ist der Einfluss von Wind nur unzureichend berücksichtigt worden, insbesondere bei geneigten Receivern.
