Parabolic trough collectors and linear Fresnel collectors are well-established technologies for power production and are now being used to provide solar heat for industrial needs. Traditionally, these technologies rely on liquids as heat transfer fluids, but there have been concerns about their technical limitations and environmental impact, leading to research on alternative solutions. This review examines the use of gases as heat transfer fluids in linear concentrating collectors and highlights their potential applications and technical challenges. The findings indicate that gases have the potential to replace liquids, but further research and development are needed to determine the best technical compromises for practical implementation in different sectors.
Parabolic trough collectors and linear Fresnel collectors are mature technologies for power production, and they are being recently applied to provide solar heat for industrial needs. Conventionally, they use a liquid as heat transfer fluid, either thermal oil or water, to carry heat from the receivers up to the point of conversion or delivery. Although liquids offer excellent thermal properties, they show technical limitations, besides environmental concerns, which have encouraged the research on alternative solutions. This work reviews the main research works on the use of gases as heat transfer fluid in linear concentrating collectors, including solar power and heat production, highlighting the potential applications and technical challenges. The review indicates: first, gases offer potential to replace liquids, and second, there is a need for more research and development to define the best technical compromises to reach practical application in every sector.This article is categorized under:Sustainable Energy > Solar EnergyEnergy and Power Systems > Energy Infrastructure
