介绍了一种应用于塔式太阳能热发电站的腔式高温空气吸热器,建立了吸热器内部空气流动及传热过程模拟数学模型,并通过数值方法,模拟了吸热器内部的空气流场和温度场。结果得知:空气进入吸热器后,沿内壁面轴向高速流动,随着深度的增加,速度越来越小,到达底部时速度最小;在压差的作用下,进入吸热器内部的空气会不断流向和冲刷针肋及壁面,而主流方向的流量不断减少;空气通过冲刷高温针肋及壁面不断吸收热量,温度不断升高;由于吸热器底部空气速度较小,对流换热系数较小和热流密度较大,因此该处温度较高,是整个吸热器的最脆弱部位;在高辐照强度情况下,虽然加大空气流量可降低吸热器壁面的温度,但由于其对流换热系数与空气流速不成正比例,壁面温度一般还会有所升高。

A detailed nonuniform thermal model of a parabolic trough solar receiver with two halves and two inactive ends

In this paper a detailed one dimensional nonuniform thermal model of a parabolic trough solar collector/receiver is presented. The entire receiver is divided into two linear halves and two inactive ends for the nonuniform solar radiation, heat transfers and fluid dynamics. Different solar radiation and heat transfer modes can be taken into consideration for these four different regions respectively. This enables the study of different design parameters, material properties, operating conditions, fluid flow and heat transfer performance for the corresponding regions or the whole receiver. Then the nonuniform model and the corresponding uniform thermal model are validated with known performance of an existing parabolic trough solar collector/receiver. For applications, the uniform thermal model can be used to quickly compute the integral heat transfer performance of the whole PTC system while the nonuniform thermal model can be used to analyze the local nonuniform solar radiation and heat transfer performance characteristics and nonuniform heat transfer enhancements or optimizations. Later, it could also be effectively used with an intelligent optimization, such as the genetic algorithm or the particle swarm optimization, to quickly evaluate and optimize the characteristics and performance of PTCs under series of nonuniform conditions in detail.     

Internal radiation effects in semitransparent high‐temperature coatings

Internal thermal radiation in semitransparent coatings should be considered in the calculation of temperature and heat flux distribution in metal wall with a thermal barrier coating. In this paper, a ray tracing/node analysis method is used in the numerical simulation of a coupled transient radiative and conductive heat transfer in an absorbing‐scattering non‐gray coating. The present results show that the operating temperature is higher than the design temperature when the radiation is not considered. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Potential of performance improvement of concentrated solar power plants by optimizing the parabolic trough receiver

This paper proposes a comprehensive thermodynamic and economic model to predict and compare the performance of concentrated solar power plants with traditional and novel receivers with different configurations involving operating temperatures and locations. The simulation results reveal that power plants with novel receivers exhibit a superior thermodynamic and economic performance compared with traditional receivers. The annual electricity productions of power plants with novel receivers in Phoenix, Sevilla, and Tuotuohe are 8.5%, 10.5%, and 14.4% higher than those with traditional receivers at the outlet temperature of 550°C. The levelized cost of electricity of power plants with double-selective-coated receivers can be decreased by 6.9%, 8.5%, and 11.6%. In Phoenix, the optimal operating temperature of the power plants is improved from 500°C to 560°C by employing a novel receiver. Furthermore, the sensitivity analysis of the receiver heat loss, solar absorption, and freeze protection temperature is also conducted to analyze the general rule of influence of the receiver performance on power plants performance. Solar absorption has a positive contribution to annual electricity productions, whereas heat loss and freeze protection temperature have a negative effect on electricity outputs. The results indicate that the novel receiver coupled with low melting temperature molten salt is the best configuration for improving the overall performance of the power plants.

Numerical simulation of steady state heat transfer in a ceramic-coated gas turbine blade

As gas turbine entry temperature (TET) increases, thermal loading on first stage blades increases and, therefore, a variety of cooling techniques and thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are used. In the present work, steady state blade heat transfer mechanisms were studied via numerical simulations. Convection and radiation to the blade external surface were modeled for a super alloy blade with and without a TBC. The effects of surface emissivity changes, partial TBC coatings and uncertainties in external heat transfer coefficient were also simulated. The results show that at 1500 K TET, radiation heat transfer rate from gas to an uncoated blade is 8.4% of total heat transfer rate which decreases to 3.4% in the presence of a TBC. The TBC blocks radiation, suppresses metal temperatures and reduces heat loss to the coolant. These effects are more pronounced at higher TETs. With selective coating, substantial local temperature suppression occurs. In the presence of radiation and/or TBC, the uncertainties in convection heat transfer coefficient do not have a significant effect on metal temperatures.
