Abstract
The use of solar dish concentrators for harnessing solar energy is an established technology in the Realm of renewable energy solutions. This study presents a comprehensive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation to analyze the performance of a solar dish concentrator equipped with different cavity receivers. The aim is to optimize the thermal efficiency and energy absorption capabilities of the system. Various geometries of cavity receivers, including cylindrical, cubical, and hemispherical shapes, are evaluated under identical operational conditions. The simulations consider factors such as incident solar radiation, heat losses, temperature distribution, and fluid flow dynamics within the cavity. Results indicate significant variations in thermal performance based on the cavity design, with certain geometries exhibiting superior heat retention and minimal thermal losses. This research provides critical insights into the design and optimization of cavity receivers, contributing to the advancement of high-efficiency solar dish concentrator systems. The findings are expected to aid in the development of more efficient solar energy harvesting technologies, promoting sustainable energy solutions.
