AI Technical Summary
Existing trough-type solar collectors suffer from problems such as crude oil cracking or coating aging caused by high temperatures at the ends of the collector tubes. Furthermore, the traditional single-end oil inlet leads to axial temperature gradients and the formation of temperature difference layers, resulting in temperature differences between the upper and lower parts of the heat transfer oil inside the collector tubes. This causes bending and significant heat loss, resulting in reduced heat collection efficiency.
The heat collection tube adopts a center-inlet and center-outlet structure, with the inlet and outlet located in the middle of the heat collection tube. Combined with the composite coating on the outer surface of the stainless steel inner tube and the spiral flow guiding mechanism, the contact area between the fluid and the tube wall is increased, the flow path is extended, and the light energy conversion efficiency is improved through multi-layer periodic coating.
The number of external pipe bends was reduced, which lowered pipe heat loss and manufacturing costs, enhanced turbulence and heat exchange efficiency, homogenized the temperature field, avoided local overheating, and improved the heat collection efficiency and equipment stability of the collector.

[0033] Specifically, the joint assembly 3 is arranged at the middle part of the heat collecting tube, the two ends of the joint assembly 3 are respectively communicated with the ends of the two heat collecting tube bases 1, the joint assembly 3 is internally provided with a pipeline structure matched with the heat collecting tube base 1, the liquid inlet 4 and the liquid outlet 5 arranged on the joint assembly 3 are adjacently arranged, and the liquid inlet 4 and the liquid outlet 5 are oriented in the same direction; the joint assembly 3 is provided with an internal passage and an external passage, the liquid inlet 4 is connected with the internal passage, the liquid outlet 5 is connected with the external passage, and the two ends of the internal passage are communicated with the stainless steel inner tube 6 of the heat collecting tube base 1, and the external passage is communicated with the outer tube 2 of the heat collecting tube base 1.
[0034] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 The liquid inlet 4 is communicated with the stainless steel inner tube 6, the liquid outlet 5 is communicated with the outer tube 2, the end of the stainless steel inner tube 6 is provided with a passage opening 61 communicated with the outer tube 2, when the heat-conducting working medium enters the stainless steel inner tube 6 through the liquid inlet 4, flows to the end, and then enters the outer tube 2 through the passage opening 61 at the end of the stainless steel inner tube 6, and flows out of the heat collecting tube through the liquid outlet 5 after flowing in the heat collecting tube.

[0035] As shown in Figure 3 The flow guide mechanism 7 is a spiral line structure arranged on the outer periphery side of the stainless steel inner tube, and the spiral angle is 30°-60°.
[0036] Specifically, a spiral structure is provided on the inner wall of the outer tube 2.

A heat transfer fluid flow channel is provided between the inner wall of the outer tube 2 and the outer wall of the stainless steel inner tube 6. The spiral flow guide structure is located between the inner wall of the outer tube 2 and the outer wall of the stainless steel inner tube 6.
[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the helical structure may include a flow path formed by protrusions or grooves created by a single or multiple helices. The working fluid circulating from the stainless steel inner tube 6 flows into the outer tube 2 and then circulates along the outer tube 2 through the helical structure. The helical structure increases the contact area between the fluid and the tube wall, extends the flow path of the heat-conducting working fluid within the tube, thereby enhancing the turbulence effect and heat exchange efficiency. It also helps to uniformize the temperature field, reduce the axial temperature gradient, avoid localized overheating, and make the outlet temperature distribution more uniform, thus improving the heat collection efficiency of the collector.
[0038] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment of this invention, the outer tube 2 can adopt a spiral tube structure. The specific angle and shape of the spiral structure can be adjusted according to actual heat exchange requirements. By setting a spiral flow guiding structure on the inner wall of the outer tube 2, not only can flow be guided, but the spiral structure also disrupts the laminar flow state of the fluid, forming a secondary swirling flow, increasing the contact area between the fluid and the tube wall. The spiral structure can reduce the temperature gradient and lower the thermal resistance by adjusting the synergy between the flow velocity and the temperature field. Moreover, a synergistic design of different types of tubes can be adopted to compensate for differences in thermal expansion and reduce the risk of deformation caused by temperature gradients.
[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the heat collection tube substrate 1, outer tube 2, and stainless steel inner tube 6 are all straight-line anti-bend tube structures, and the heat transfer fluid flows in a straight line. It is then guided into a turbulent flow state through a spiral tube, which reduces resistance and makes the flow velocity uniform. While achieving uniform temperature of the heat collection tube, it also reduces temperature difference and thermal resistance, and reduces heat loss.
[0040] In this embodiment, the composite coating includes a metal absorption layer, a gradient refractive index dielectric layer, and an infrared reflection layer. The gradient refractive index dielectric layer forms a multi-layer periodic structure by alternating deposition of AlO and SiO through magnetron sputtering.
[0041] Specifically, by precisely controlling the deposition ratio and number of layers of the two materials, a continuous refractive index gradient is formed. The composite coating can achieve impedance matching in a wide spectral range (380-2500nm), resulting in low reflectivity of incident light, reduced reflection loss, improved heat exchange efficiency of the heat collection tube, and extended service life.
[0042] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the heat collection tube 8 includes several heat collection tube bases 1, which are connected in series by a docking mechanism.
[0043] Specifically, the joint assembly 3 is symmetrically provided with a plurality of heat collecting tube bases 1 at both ends, the heat collecting tube bases 1 are spliced and assembled, the both ends of the heat collecting tube 8 are provided with covers, the abutting mechanism is a flange connecting plate 9 arranged at the end of the heat collecting tube base, the adjacent heat collecting tube bases 1 are connected through the flange connecting plate 9, and after the heat collecting tube base 1 is stably connected with the joint assembly 3, the internal and external passages of the heat collecting tube are connected with each other.
[0044] Further, in actual use, the specific installation length of the heat collecting tube can be selected as required, spliced and assembled, and a multi-segment splicing and assembling structure is adopted, which not only facilitates transportation, but also can realize modular expansion, form an array through series connection or series-parallel connection layout of multiple groups of heat collecting tubes, form a large-scale heat collecting mirror field, increase the total heat collecting area, and reduce the cost; and under the action of the support member, high safety and bending resistance of the heat collecting tube are realized.
[0045] Moreover, the embodiment adopts a direct connection structure of a middle-in middle-out heat collecting tube, the heat conducting oil enters from the middle position of the heat collecting tube 8, is divided into two symmetrical branches and flows to the left and right ends along the stainless steel inner tube 6, flows into the outer tube after turning back at the outlet of the inner tube end, and then flows out from the middle outlet, forming a double-circuit U-shaped path. The double-circuit design makes the pipe body heat more evenly, avoids the axial temperature gradient caused by traditional single-end oil inlet, reduces the temperature difference and heat loss, and reduces local overheating. The symmetrical flow design can offset the thermal expansion stress, reduce the risk of pipeline deformation, solve the problem of pipe explosion of traditional elbow pipes, can be applied to scenes with high irradiance or large temperature difference, and can reduce the number of external pipeline elbows, reduce the installation nodes, facilitate installation, and reduce installation cost.
