ABSTRACT:
The solar receiver for use e.g. with a solar-powered Stirling-type hot gas engine includes an internally mounted fused silica window for sealing the receiver aperture against thermal energy convection losses. The window has a folded cone configuration with an inverted radially outer truncated conical window member, and a radially inner conical window member joined at the base to the smaller base of the outer member. The larger base of the outer conical member is attached to the receiver housing to surround the aperture, and the angle of revolution of both members is about 20.degree.. At least 50% of the solar radiation escaping the receiver through the aperture undergoes at least three reflections prior to escaping.
