Investigation of heat loss from a solar cavity receiver
This study examines experimentally the heat loss from a model solar cavity receiver. For this purpose, laboratory-scale cylindrical cavity models with geometric aspect ratios (cavity length to diameter) of 1 and 2, and aperture opening ratios (aperture diameter to cavity diameter) of 0.5 and 1, were built. Each cavity was subjected to constant boundary heat input via heating cables, and was ope...
متن کاملComputational and experimental investigations into cavity receiver heat loss for solar thermal concentrators
Tubular cavity receivers offer excellent prospects as low-cost, high-efficiency heat collection elements for paraboloidal dish solar-thermal concentrators, as well as for central tower systems. Major heat loss mechanisms for these receivers are convection and radiative emission, as well as reflection and spillage (non-capture). Compared to glazed receivers, convection heat loss can be quite a l...
متن کاملAnalysis and Optimization of Trapezoidal Grooved Microchannel Heat Sink Using Nanofluids in a Micro Solar Cell
It is necessary to control the temperature of solar cells for enhancing efficiency with increasing concentrations of multiple photovoltaic systems. A heterogeneous two-phase model was established after considering the interacting between temperature, viscosity, the flow of nanofluid, and the motion of nanoparticles in the nanofluid, in order to study the microchannel heat sink (MCHS) using Al2O...

متن کاملUse of solar cooker in Nigeria
The sources of energy used in cooking in most Nigeria homes are fossil fuel and biomass. The fuel is becoming expensive beyond the reach of common person. There is need to source for suitable alternative. Therefore, the work focused on use of solar cooker for cooking some staple food in Nigeria. Preliminary study was carried out to quantify appropriate water requirements for cooking some staple...
