CFD Simulation of Airflow in a New Receiver Concept for Solar Tower [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
: Open cavity solar receivers play an important role in concentrated solar power (CSP) systems and hold great promise, particularly in scenarios where their ability to absorb high fluxes at very high temperatures yields beneficial results.

Improving Thermal Performance of Solar PTC Using Internal Finned Structure [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
In the given work, the idea of simple and fumed absorber tubes of a parabolic trough solar collector (PTC) are taken into account and numerically analysed. The 3D numerical models are performed with the help of a COMSOL Multiphysics 6.1 software.

Study on Outlet Temperature Control of External Receiver for Solar Power Tower

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Due to the change of direct normal irradiance (DNI) and the change of output power load, the receiver of the solar tower is in an unstable state in the actual operation. In this paper, a 100 MW external cylindric receiver is designed and modelled.

Development of a cascaded latent heat storage system for parabolic trough solar thermal power generation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Concentrated solar power (CSP) has the potential of fulfilling the world’s electricity needs. Parabolic-trough system using synthetic oil as the HTF with operating temperature between 300 and 400o C, is the most matured CSP technology.

Thermal and mechanical stresses in a solar central receiver

open access: yesRE&PQJ
Failure in the tubes of the solar receiver is a problem that should be studied. This failure is caused by the combined action of the high temperature, stresses and corrosion. Commonly, the calculation of the stresses in the receiver tubes is carried out in the crossed sections, taking into account the radial and the circumferential variation of the ...

Energetic Comparison of Linear Fresnel and Parabolic Trough Collector Systems

open access: yes, 2012
Within the last years, Linear Fresnel (LF) collector systems have been developed as a technical alternative to parabolic trough collector (PT) systems. In the past, LF systems focused on low- and medium temperature applications.
