Heat efficiency of a solar trough receiver with a hot mirror compared to a selective coating
In this article, we present a solar trough system in which the receiver pipe is enclosed in a glass cover under vacuum. The dominant radiation losses from the receiver are reduced by the use of a 'hot mirror' on the glass cover instead of a selective coating on the receiver pipe. We presen...
