| 内容記述 | A prototype power conversion assembly (PCA) developed by an American aerospace company is considered. The PCA will be mounted at the focal point of a 12 meter parabolic dish and will produce approximately 20 kW of 3 kHz ac power to a ground-mounted rectifier. The PCA includes a cavity receiver coupled to an organic Rankine cycle engine. The engine working fluid is toluene. The performance goals of the receiver design are to maximize both the thermal efficiency and the heat capacity of the core. The latter goal is desired for stabilizing the PCA operation during intermittent cloud cover. The receiver design is based upon the utilization of a direct-heated copper shell. It was necessary to develop a feasible manufacturing process for assuring a good braze joint between the stainless steel, containing the toluene, and the copper shell. |
