This paper introduces separate-type heat pipe (STHP) based solar receiver systems that enable more efficient operation of concentrated solar power plants without relying on a heat transfer fluid. The solar receiver system may consist of a number of STHP modules that receive concentrated solar flux from a solar collector system, spread the high concentrated solar flux to a low heat flux level, and effectively transfer the received heat to the working fluid of a heat engine to enable a higher working temperature and higher plant efficiency. In general, the introduced STHP solar receiver has characteristics of high heat transfer capacity, high heat transfer coefficient in the evaporator to handle a high concentrated solar flux, non-condensable gas release mechanism, and lower costs. The STHP receiver in a solar plant may also integrate the hot/cold tank based thermal energy storage system without using a heat transfer fluid.

High Heat Transfer

An experimental study of the heat transfer distribution in a turbine rotor passage was conducted in a large–scale, ambient temperature, rotating turbine model. Meat transfer was measured for both the full–span suction and pressure surfaces of the airfoil as well as for the hub endwall surface. The objective of this program was to document the effects of flow three–dimensionality on the heat transfer in a rotating blade row (vs. a stationary cascade). Of particular interest were the effects of the hub and tip secondary flows, tip leakage and the leading–edge horseshoe vortexsystem. The effect of surface roughness on the passage heat transfer was also investigated. Midspan results are compared with both smooth–wall and rough–wall finite–difference two dimensional heat transfer predictions. Contour maps of Stanton number for both the rotor airfoil and endwall surfaces revealed numerous regions of high heat transfer produced by the three dimensional flows within the rotor passage. Of particular importance are regions of local enhancement (as much as 100% over midspan values) produced on the airfoil suction surface by the secondary flows and tip–leakage vortices and on the hub endwall by the leading–edge horseshoe vortex system.
