【摘要】 通过实验测试和数值模拟对太阳辐射能量转换器(solar energy converter)及其填充的泡沫陶瓷辐射吸收特性、气流流动和换热特性进行研究。研究结果表明:应用Lacoix模型建立太阳辐射能量转换器内填充SiC泡沫陶瓷气流流动模型是合理的。在实验条件下,太阳辐射能量转换器出口处流通空气温度可达600.82K,太阳辐射辐射能转换为流通空气热能的效率可达51%;在相同条件下,随着太阳能反射镜的有效辐射面积和辐射强度的增加,太阳辐射能量转换器出口处流通空气温度几乎呈线性增长;随着泡沫陶瓷孔隙率增大,太阳辐射能量转换器出口处流通空气温度先增大后减小。更多还原

【Abstract】 In this paper,numerical simulation and experience were carried out to study the solar radiation absorptance,the conversion efficiency of the solar energy,the characteristics of the flow and heat transfer,for the solar energy converter filled with SiC foam ceramics.The results showed that the solid frame structure of the ceramic foams absorbs solar radiation,convert it into thermal energy,and heat the air flow through the ceramic foams by convection heat transfer.It is reasonable to set up the flow model in SiC ceramic foam by Lacoix’s flow model in porous media.Under experimental condition,the temperature at the outlet of the solar energy converter arrives at 600.82K,and conversion efficiency of the solar energy arrives at 51%.Under same condition,the air temperature at the outlet of the solar energy converter increases,with the effective reflective area and the solar radiation intensity of the solar converter.The air temperature at the outlet of the solar energy converter increases with increasing the porosity of the ceramic foams at begining.更多还原
