Experimental investigation on start-up and heat transfer performance of the high-temperature heat pipe receiver with an ellipse-concave plate absorber
A novel ellipse-concave plate heat pipe (ECPHP) receiver using sodium as the working fluid was developed for using on the solar thermochemical reactor. The start-up and heat transfer performance of the ECPHP under different cross-section heat fluxes were experimentally investigated. By introducing t...
