Published at Applied Thermal Engineering – Investigations of inlet arrangement strategies and particle parameters on thermochemical performance in falling particle solar reactors

Published at Applied Thermal Engineering – Investigations of inlet arrangement strategies and particle parameters on thermochemical performance in falling particle solar reactors

Abstract: The reformation of methane to hydrogen and steam in a falling particle solar reactor (FPSR) is a promising method to use the solar energy, which converts solar energy into chemical energy. FPSR has higher operation temperature, higher pressure bearing...

Published at Tribilogy International – Analysis of abrasion wear in particle storage and valve subsystem for falling particle concentrating solar power

Published at Renewable Energy – Numerical and experimental investigation on thermal performances of quartz tube gravity-driven solid particle solar receiver based on linear-focused solar furnace

Abstract: This paper reported a novel quartz tube gravity-driven SPSR. A test platform of the receiver with a drop length of 4m based on a linear-focused solar furnace was built. The optical performances of the linear-focused solar furnace were measured by a direct...

Published at Progress in Energy and Combustion Science – Opportunities and challenges in using particle circulation loops for concentrated solar power applications

Published at Progress in Energy and Combustion Science – Opportunities and challenges in using particle circulation loops for concentrated solar power applications

Abstract: Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is an electricity generation technology that concentrates solar irradiance through heliostats onto a small area, the receiver, where a heat transfer medium, currently a fluid (HTF), is used as heat carrier towards the heat...
