Thermal Performance Prediction of a Trapezoidal Cavity Absorber for a Linear Fresnel Reflector
A trapezoidal cavity absorber for a linear Fresnel reflector concentrator is analyzed and optimized via CFD simulation. The heat loss coefficient is introduced; the influences of ambient temperature, absorber temperature, cavity depth, inclination of side walls, insulation thickness, glass window, a...
