Abstract:The present research intends to design an efficient receiver for solar thermal applications with a solar dish concentrator system. Thermal and dynamic analysis is carried out for different convolutions of a spiral coil, and experiments are performed for testing the modified absorber. Experimental results are validated for the spiral absorber with numerical results. Three receivers of different numbers of convolutions are analyzed, and simulation steps are performed for these receivers to make improvements in t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
