Thermal Analysis of a Volumetric Solar Receiver

Journal of Thermal Science, 2019
The volumetric receiver has received wide attention due to its high thermal efficiency. This paper studied a new type of a solid-liquid composite volumetric receiver. The heat transfer in a solid-liquid composite volumetric solar receiver was analyzed using a one-dimensional unsteady simulation model of the solid-liquid receiver.

Thermal Modeling of Solar Central Receiver Cavities

Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 1989
Results are presented from a numerical model of the steady-state energy transfer in molten-salt-in-tube solar cavity receivers that includes convective energy transfer at a local (spatially resolved) level. Molten salt energy absorption and gray radiative transfer between all cavity surfaces are also included.

Developmental Solar Thermal Receiver Studies for the White Cliffs Solar Thermal Power Plant

Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 1997
The principal features of a computer simulation used as a design tool for solar thermal receivers for paraboloidal dish collectors are described. Performance predictions derived from this model are outlined and compared with experiments on two receiver designs testing the overall thermal performance and the flux distribution. It is shown that predicted
