Effect of Quartz Aperture Covers on the Fluid Dynamics and Thermal Efficiency of Falling Particle Receivers

Lindsey Yue, Brantley Mills, Josh Christian, Clifford K. Ho
Journal: Journal of Solar Energy Engineering
Publisher: ASME
Article Type: Research Papers
J. Sol. Energy Eng. August 2022, 144(4): 041008.
Paper No: SOL-20-1304
https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4053449
Published Online: March 2, 2022
...Lindsey Yue; Brantley Mills; Josh Christian; Clifford K. Ho Falling particle receivers are an emerging technology for use in concentrating solar power systems. In this study, quartz half-shells are investigated for use as full or partial aperture covers to reduce receiver thermal losses. Quartz...
