Solar energy thermoreceiver with selective coating and vacuum thermoisolation
Abstract
The paper describes two design modifications of a solar-thermal-radiation detector with selective coating and screening vacuum insulation which operates reliably up to temperatures of 400 C. A method for calculating the operational characteristics of the detector is presented. Curves reflecting the dependence of thermal losses and efficiency on detector temperature for different modifications of the detector system and different solar energy densities are presented.
