Composite materials for solar receivers - experimental thesis

keywords ALLOYS, COMPOSITE MATERIALS, RECEIVER, SOLAR CONCENTRATOR, SOLAR ENERGY

Reference persons DAVIDE PAPURELLO

Research Groups Energy Center Lab, M3ES

Thesis type EXPERIMENTAL, EXPERIMENTAL AND MODELING

Description The choice of material is critical to ensure optimal performance and sustained operation of the solar concentrator receiver. It is also essential that such material can operate at high temperatures and high thermal gradients. In short, material identification involves high thermal stresses that cause structural deformation. Various metal alloys and "innovative" materials (composites) will be used to verify that the yield strength limit is not exceeded due to thermal stresses induced by concentrated solar radiation.
It is also possible, if of good quality, to write a scientific publication.
