  • MODULE FOR A THERMAL ABSORBER OF A SOLAR RECEIVER, ABSORBER COMPRISING AT LEAST ONE SUCH MODULE AND RECEIVER COMPRISING AT LEAST ONE SUCH ABSORBER
    Publication number: 20130118479
    Abstract: An absorber for a solar receiver with a casing of lengthways axis including at a first lengthways end, a collector to supply a heat transfer fluid; and at a second lengthways end, a collector for evacuating the heat transfer fluid. The casing includes a first wall having a face intended to be subjected to a luminous flux, a second wall facing the first wall, and side walls connecting said the first and second walls. The casing is formed by at least one rib extending lengthways, and attached to the first and to the second wall. The at least one rib includes windows, and deflectors associated with the windows. The deflectors cause a portion of the heat transfer fluid to flow through the windows, causing reblending of the heat transfer fluid.
