Thermodynamic optimization of parallel and spiral plate heat exchangers for modified solar thermal Brayton cycle models

The receiver and heat exchangers in a Solar Thermal Brayton Cycle (STBC) have been the main sources of exergy loss. Duct profiles used in the heat exchange process have been observed to possess varying degrees of heat transfer effectiveness. To this end, the effects of the elliptical, circular and r...
