摘要:
Parabolic trough receivers are the core of a solar trough power plant, which absorb and transfer the high flux solar energy to the heat transfer fluid flowing in it. A direct current heating method is put forward below by analyzing the inadequacies of traditional methods. Voltage is imposed on both ends of the absorber and then the absorber is self-heated via the large electrical current flowing through the absorber based on the Joule Effect. Once the receiver reaches a thermal equilibrium the product of the voltage imposed on the absorber and the electrical current flowing through the absorber is equal to the heat loss of the receiver to ambient environment at corresponding temperature difference of absorber temperature above ambient. The experiment system is simple, low-cost, and easy to operate. Experiment results show that curve of heat loss is smooth and measurement uncertainty is low, which means accuracy of the experiment results is high. © 2015, Science Press. All right reserved.
