A coupled optical-thermal-fluid-mechanical analysis of parabolic trough solar receivers using supercritical CO2 as heat transfer fluid

Kun Wang et al.

Summary: Non-uniform solar flux distribution can induce significant secondary flow of S-CO2 in PTR, improving convective heat transfer. However, both high operating pressure and non-uniform solar flux distribution can cause remarkable mechanical stress in PTR, with the superposition of the two aggravating the stress.

A spectral self-regulating parabolic trough solar receiver integrated with vanadium dioxide-based thermochromic coating

Qiliang Wang et al.

Summary: A novel parabolic trough solar receiver integrated with vanadium dioxide-based thermochromic coating was proposed to reduce radiant heat loss and improve overall performance. Comprehensive heat transfer models were established and validated for high accuracy in predicting thermal performance. The thermochromic coating showed unique advantages in improving thermal performance of the solar receivers under both M phase and R phase, resulting in reduced heat loss and improved thermal efficiency.
