Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of solar thermal collectors, in particular to a cavity absorber based on a linear Fresnel solar thermal collector. Background Art

[0002] Solar collectors are devices that convert solar energy into thermal energy. They are the core components of solar thermal utilization. They are specifically divided into focusing collectors and non-focusing collectors. Focusing collectors can concentrate solar radiation with low energy flux density into radiant heat flux with high energy flux density. They are generally used in the field of medium and high temperature utilization of solar energy. Linear Fresnel collectors use a series of discrete mirrors to focus light into a focal line. The focal line position is generally a cavity absorber or a vacuum tube absorber. There is a flowing working fluid in the absorber. After being heated by the focused solar radiation, it is transported to the heat-using equipment. The performance of the absorber determines the efficiency of the solar thermal collector's light-to-heat conversion. Therefore, the design of the absorber is crucial to the utilization of solar thermal energy.

[0003] Cavity absorber is generally used for linear Fresnel collector. It is fixed above the collector mirror field and generally consists of an outer shell, an insulation layer, an internal cavity and a heat absorbing tube. The outer shell plays a supporting and protective role, the insulation layer can effectively block the heat loss in the cavity, and the cavity plays a role in collecting radiated heat. The heat absorbing tube is attached to the inner wall, and the flowing medium in the tube is generally heat transfer oil or water.

[0004] However, most of the cavity absorbers currently available are fixed and cannot change with the change of the solar radiation angle, thereby reducing the efficiency of solar energy conversion and having low practicality. To this end, we propose a cavity absorber based on a linear Fresnel solar collector to solve the above problem. Utility Model Content

[0012] Further preferably, the bottom of the fixing frame is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate through four supporting legs.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the water pump of the utility model pumps the water in the water tank into the heat collecting tube, and after the sunlight is irradiated on multiple groups of strip reflectors, it is reflected to the double-arc reflector, and then refracted on the heat collecting tube by the double-arc reflector, so that the water in the heat collecting tube is heated up to form water vapor, and then enters the steam container through the hose and the steam inlet pipe.
