Reliability and heat transfer performance of a miniature high-temperature thermosyphon-based thermal valve

Journal Article Oshman, Christopher ; Rea, Jonathan ; Hardin, Corey ; ... - International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer

Latent heat thermal energy storage systems have the advantages of near isothermal heat release and high energy density compared to sensible heat, generally resulting in higher power block efficiencies. Until now, there has been no highly effective and reliable method to passively extract that stored latent energy. Most modern attempts rely on external power supplied to a pump to move viscous heat transfer fluids from the phase change material (PCM) to the power block. In this work, the problem of latent heat dispatchability has been addressed with a redesigned thermosyphon geometry that can act as a 'thermal valve' capable ofmore »« less

Design of a thermosyphon-based thermal valve for controlled high-temperature heat extraction

Journal Article Oshman, Christopher ; Hardin, Corey ; Rea, Jonathan ; ... - Applied Thermal Engineering

Conventional concentrated solar power (CSP) is a reliable alternative energy source that uses the sun’s heat to drive a heat engine to produce electrical power. An advantage of CSP is its ability to store thermal energy for use during off-sun hours which is typically done by storing sensible heat in molten salts. Alternatively, thermal energy may be stored as latent heat in a phase-change material (PCM), which stores large quantities of thermal energy in an isothermal process. On-sun, the PCM melts, storing energy. Off-sun, the latent heat is extracted to produce dispatchable electrical power. Here, this paper presents the designmore »« less

High Temperature Performance of High-efficiency, Multi-layer Solar Selective Coatings for Tower Applications

Journal Article Gray, M. H. ; Tirawat, R. ; Kessinger, K. A. ; ... - Energy Procedia (Online)

The roadmap to next-generation concentrating solar power plants anticipates a progression to central towers with operating temperatures in excess of 650°C. These higher temperatures are required to drive higher power-cycle efficiencies, resulting in lower cost energy. However, these conditions also place a greater burden on the materials making up the receiver. Any novel absorber material developed for next-generation receivers must be stable in air, cost effective, and survive thousands of heating and cooling cycles. The collection efficiency of a power tower plant can be increased if the energy absorbed by the receiver is maximized while the heat loss from themore »« less

The Effect of Nanofluids on the Heat-Transfer Capacity of Miniature Thermosyphons for Electronics Cooling

Journal Article Bondarenko, B. I. ; Moraru, V. N., E-mail: vasily.moraru@gmail.com ; Kravets, V. Yu. ; ... - Technical Physics Letters

Stable nanofluids based on DG-100 grade carbon black and carbon nanotubes have been prepared, and their influence on the maximum heat-transfer capacity and thermal resistance of closed-loop two-phase thermosyphons (TPTs) intended for electronics cooling have been studied. A more than twofold increase in the critical heat flux of these TPTs as compared to those filled with water has been obtained along with a sharp decrease in their thermal resistance. It is suggested that this effect is not only due to the high thermal conductivity of the proposed nanofluids, but is also related to the formation of a specific porous structuremore »« less

ASME proceedings of the 32nd national heat transfer conference (HTD-Vol. 349). Volume 11: Interfacial thermal phenomena in thin films; Heat pipes and thermosyphons; Heat and mass transfer in porous media

Conference Goodson, K ; Chang, W S ; Charmchi, M ; ...

This volume contains a portion of the over 240 ASME papers which were presented at the conference. For over 40 years, the National Heat Transfer Conference has been the premiere forum for the presentation and dissemination of the latest advances in heat transfer. The work contained in these volumes range from studies of fundamental phenomena to applications in the latest heat transfer equipment. This volume covers the following topics: Interfacial thermal phenomena in thin films; heat pipes and thermosyphons; and heat and mass transfer in porous media. Separate abstracts were prepared for most papers in this volume.
