Abstract
A receiver for use with parabolic solar concentrators. The receiver consists of a heat conductive tube helically coiled into a hollow cone shape. Heat conductive fluid is pumped into an entry point in the tube and exits at an exit point from the tube. A casing is provided to cover the cone. An insulator between the cone and casing prevents heat from escaping from the coil. When deployed, the receiver is positioned such that the aperture of the cone is directed towards the parabolic solar concentrator. The receiver can be positioned so that the focus of the parabolic concentrator is outside of the cone but adjacent to the aperture. Alternatively, the receiver can be positioned so that focus of the parabolic concentrator is inside the cone but still adjacent to the aperture. To assist in the heat transfer, the inside of the cone can be colored black.
