THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF ADVANCED PARABOLIC RECEIVER FOR DIRECT STEAM GENERATION
Abstract: Solar thermal power generation using water as a Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) has gained interest recently, due to its ability to generate steam directly from the receiver tube. In this paper, a new theoretical model of receiver called Concentric Parabolic Trough Receiver (C-PTR) for direct steam generation is presented. The proposed model consists of Phase change material (PCM) sandwiched between two concentric cylindrical tubes. Binary Solar Salt commercially known as …
