Aerogel-based solar thermal receivers [PDF]
Nano Energy, 2017 Abstract In any solar thermal application, such as solar space heating, solar hot water for domestic or industrial use, concentrating solar power, or solar air conditioning, a solar receiver converts incident sunlight into heat. In order to be efficient, the receiver must ideally absorb the entire solar spectrum while losing relatively little heat ...

Characterization of Solar-Aged Porous Silicon Carbide for Concentrated Solar Power Receivers [PDF]
Materials, 2021 Porous silicon carbide is a promising material for ceramic receivers in next-generation concentrated solar power receivers. To investigate its tolerance to thermal shock, accelerated ageing of large coupons (50 × 50 × 5 mm) was conducted in a solar furnace to investigate the effects of thermal cycling up to 1000 °C, with gradients of up to 22 °C/mm ...

Deflection and stresses in solar central receivers [PDF]
Solar Energy, 2020 The aim of the design of central solar receivers is to withstand the high non-uniform solar-heat-flux and temperature during the solar-power-plant lifetime. This high non-uniform tube temperature causes high thermal stress, producing creep and fatigue damage.
