Performance studies on solar parabolic dish collector using cylinderical cavity receiver for community heating applications.

  • Abstract:
  • In high-temperature applications, the Solar Parabolic Dish Collector (SPDC) is an important component of the solar thermal energy conversion process. The main goal of this project is to improve the performance of a solar dish collector with a cylindrical cavity receiver. SPDC's design incorporates aluminium leaflets with a mirror finish. The cylindrical receiver design is used to achieve the improved thermal efficiency. For varied design and operating conditions, it has been established that the average collector efficiency of solar dish collectors ranges from 44 to 61 percent. The parabolic dish collector's heat transfer properties and thermal performance were investigated. The results of these experiments will be used to make suitable SPDC assessments on a regular basis.
