Resumen:
A 50-150 kWth pilot solar receiver that uses silicon carbide dense particles suspension as the HTF (heat transfer fluid) has been tested at the 1 MW solar furnace at Odeillo, Font-Romeu. This paper presents significant experimental results on particle outlet temperature, dynamic response of the system to solid mass flowrate and solar power variations, and receiver thermal efficiency. Mean particles´temperature up to 585 ⁰C was reached. The higher the particle mass flowrate, the lower the temperature increase in the tubes, and the higher the receiver thermal yield.
