Performance of solar absorber shieldings on energy reception.
Investigations into the use of 3 types of absorber tube shieldings with respect to heat losses were carried out. In this study a cylindrical parabolic solar concentrator was used to direct beam radiation on to the absorber-shielding configurations and tests were conducted in a wind-tunnel under vary...
