Resumen
[ENG] With the aim of reducing costs and weight and increasing thermal efficiency of parabolic dish collectors (PDCs), a modified cavity receiver for a PDC is proposed and analysed. The application is generation of steam at 150 _C in an industrial pilot plant of thermal treatment. The diameter of the PDC is 4:5m. The proposed cavity receiver does not use molten salts due to the maze-like design of its interior. The performance in the absorption of solar radiation of the proposed cavity receiver is studied with a ray-tracing model. It is found that there is a range of positions where the amount of absorbed radiation does not significantly change. Energy losses by natural and forced convection are studied by using a CFD model. Two correlations for natural and forced convection are developed and it is found that the use of a window can help to suppress convection. The interior is analysed with a CFD model for different HTF mass flow rates. An accurate distribution of radiation in the walls ...
