ABSTRACT:
The disclosure illustrates a receiver for the focused beam component of solar radiation. The receiver comprises an elongated element of heat insulating material and an elongated heat conductive element secured to the insulating element along its marginal edges to form a passage for heat transfer fluid. The heat conductive element has a concave or convex outer surface that has portions normal to reflected solar radiation coming from a range of different directions. Preferably the heat conductive element is formed from a thin walled extrusion which has an internal fin to maximize the surface area of the passage for the heat transfer fluid.
