Analysis and design of the Volumetric Air Heating Receiver

Analysis and design of the Volumetric Air Heating Receiver [electronic resource]

Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL) has performed a preconceptual design and cost evaluation of a volumetric receiver, a novel approach for producing high temperature air for process heat applications. In this central receiver concept, solar energy is concentrated by a field of heliostats onto the re...
