Abstract: A new solar volumetric reactor for CO2 reforming of CH4 was tested at the Solar Tower of the Weizmann Institute of Science. The reactor design was based on extensive previous experimental ...

Abstract: This study is aimed at developing a simulation model of a solar volumetric reactor for hydrocarbon reforming, operating at high temperature and pressure. It will then be used to optimize the ...

Abstract: In high-temperature solar-thermal systems the conversion of solar to thermal energy requires a radiation absorbing surface to transfer the radiative solar energy to the working fluid. The present ...

Abstract: Dry methane reforming with carbon dioxide in a directly irradiated particle receiver seeded with carbon black is presented in this study. Carbon particles were entrained in the reacting gases ...

Abstract: This experimental study shows the behavior of a directly irradiated, high temperature, solar receiver seeded with a low concentration of carbon black particles as the radiation absorbing media ...
