A Method for Measuring the Optical Efficiency of Evacuated Receivers

Evacuated receivers used with parabolic trough solar collectors can be characterized in terms of their heat loss and optical efficiency. The optical efficiency is the ratio of the energy collected to the incident solar radiation when operating at ambient temperature. If one restricts attention to th...
