More Information
Summary:The invention relates to a solar receiver having a higher yield than a central tower receiver. Said receiver comprises a plurality of absorbent tubes (2) for absorbing incident energy from light guides (8) suitable for capturing solar radiation in solar collector concentration focal points (11), the absorbent tubes (2) being arranged consecutively and in parallel, adjacently in relation to a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the absorbent tubes (2), said tubes containing a circulating heat-transfer fluid. The longitudinal axes are contained in at least two planes, defining at least two lines (3, 6) of absorbent tubes (2) arranged in an alternating manner, and partially superimposed. Said receiver also comprises containers (4, 5) subjected to a vacuum in order to enclose the absorbent tubes (2) and reduce the losses by convection.
