Abstract
A preliminary study is used to develop a novel high-temperature pressurised non-windowed cavity receiver which utilises a compound Heat Transfer Enhancement (HTE) method. The cavity absorber is covered by impinging jets and extended surface techniques together to increase the solid absorber-to-HTF heat transfer rate and to keep the temperature of the cavity below the maximum service temperature of the cavity. Results showed that a compound technique of impinging jets on a plate-fin heat sink (compared to the impinging jets on a clean cavity and forced flow through a plate-fin heat sink) provides the highest convective heat transfer coefficient by around two times higher than the convection coefficient required to keep the temperature less than the cavity maximum working temperature.
