- Additional information
- This research was funded by the European CSP2 project. The non-invasive positron emission particle tracking technique was used to evaluate the importance of the particle motion and then obtain the time close to the wall region in the heat transfer tubes. This was used to obtain the heat transfer properties and evaluate the efficiency of the process. This research led to a new follow up (SOLPART project) involving the scale up of the pilot system with reference to the dimensions of the tubes proposed for use at the focus of a concentrated solar power plant.
