Investigation of the heat transfer in cylindrical receiver configurations with inner tubes
Abstract
The design of a receiver for a closed-cycle gas turbine with air as the working medium is discussed. The emphasis of the investigations is layed upon the optimization of heat transfer to the working medium. The irradiation pattern along the tubes and the effects of the working-medium pressure, the pressure loss and the tube cage geometry are considered.
