Performance analysis of the evacuated tube counter-flow absorber and direct-flow absorber to optimize the heat extraction rate for high flow rate applications
The evacuated tube collector (ETC) has gained extensive use in low-temperature applications due to its cheapness and high efficiency. The ETC can be used with a concentrator for medium temperature applications, in the range of 140–200 °C. However, the heat extraction rate of the absorber tube is a l...
