Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a collector tube, a collector tube for a collector tube and a tube collector.
  • Fig. 15a, b shows such a collector tube of the prior art.
  • Cladding tube 1 and absorber tube 2 are closed at one end and fused together at the other end.
  • Between the tubes 1, 2 is vacuum or a gas with low thermal conductivity, so that a structure - similar to a thermos - with a cavity 3 is formed.
  • the absorber tube 2 is used for light absorption and is provided for this purpose with an absorber layer.
  • the light 29 passes through the transparent cladding tube 1 located on the vacuum from Ab sorber layer 2.
  • the resulting heat in the Ab absorber layer is transferred to a heat conducting 33, which rests against the inside of the absorber tube 2 and the cavity 3 of the collector tube lined.
  • the heat conducting plate 33 is connected to a U-shaped bent tube 35 in which the heat transfer medium to be heated 4, 4a flows. Air gaps or oxidation layers between trench or oxidation layers between trench or oxidation layers between trench or oxidation layers between trench or oxidation layers between trench or oxidation layers between trench 33 and U-shaped bent tube 35 and absorber tube lead to heat transfer resistance and deteriorate the collector efficiency.
  • the amount of heat transfer medium should not be too large, so that the heat transfer medium can heat up quickly and the collector does not react too slow. Reflectors are used because there is less light on the side of the collector that faces away from the light than on the front.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide elements for a solar collector which make it possible to limit the maximum temperature and in particular also the use of materials with low temperature resistance in order to achieve a reduction in the variety of components with new production methods. Furthermore, a high efficiency should be achieved.
  • This object is achieved by the collector tube having the features of claim 1, by the distributor segment having the features of claim 20, or by a tube collimator.
  • Lektor solved with the features of claim 24.
  • the invention proposes a collector tube which brings about a reduction in the standstill temperature.
  • the heat transfer medium does not flow through a U-shaped bent tube, but directly along the inner wall of the absorber tube.
  • heat transfer resistances between absorber tube, heat conducting sheet and U-shaped bent tube are eliminated and the efficiency of the collector is increased.
  • the volume of the heat transfer medium to be heated is minimized to reduce the reaction time of the collector.
  • a coaxial tube is inserted into the cavity of each collector tube. The coaxial tube separates the inflowing cold heat transfer medium from the heated heat transfer medium.
  • the cold heat transfer medium flows inside the coaxial tube to the lower end of the cavity of the collector tube and flows back for heat absorption between the outside of the coaxial tube and the inside of the absorber tube.
  • the coaxial tube is arranged eccentrically in the cross section of the cavity of the collector tube.
  • the eccentricity of the coaxial tube is oriented to the light side of the collector tube. This reduces the volume of the heat transfer medium to be heated on the side facing away from the light and at the same time increases on the side facing the light. In this way, the heat transfer medium on the side facing away from the light, despite lower light irradiation, heated just as fast as on the light-facing side.
  • the reflector can be made smaller in relation to the tube diameter. In diffuse light conditions, the smaller reflector has only a negligible effect, but ensures that the standstill temperature increases less in the case of direct vertical irradiation.
  • the coaxial tube is displaced laterally in the collector tube.
  • the heat transfer medium to be heated for example, at southeast radiation on the opposite side - namely in the northwest direction - the lowest and on the directly irradiated side, the largest volume of the heat transfer medium to be heated.
  • the lateral displacement of the coaxial tube is carried out according to the respective position of the sun.
  • components made of materials are used, which change their shape and / or their volume when the temperature changes.
  • these components are locked between the absorber tube and the coaxial tube in such a way that they are heated simultaneously with the heat transfer medium. If there is a different degree of heating of the heat transfer medium, for example, between the east and west side due to lateral solar radiation, the component is deformed more on the warmer side than on the dark side. With the deformation of the component, the coaxial tube is displaced laterally, until the different volumes of the heat transfer medium to be heated result in compensation for the different radiation and temperature equalization.
  • the coaxial tube is variable in its thermal conductivity. Since hot and cold heat transfer medium - separated by the coaxial pipe - flow past each other in countercurrent, the thermal conductivity of the coaxial tube should be as low as possible in normal operation, to prevent heat from the hot is transferred to the cold heat transfer medium. In the case of an accident, however, it is advantageous if the thermal conductivity of the coaxial tube is as large as possible, so that the heat is transferred unhindered to the incoming cold water, which in this case represents a cold reservoir, and the standstill temperature is lowered. Realized is the variable thermal conductivity of the Koaxialrohrs advantageously through a double-walled glass tube in which there is a small amount of liquid and a gas or gas mixture. This type of coaxial tube is referred to below as a convection balloon.
  • variable thermal conductivity of the coaxial tube can also be achieved in a further embodiment of the invention that materials such as bimetals or shape memory materials change their shape and thereby form thermal bridges in the double-walled coaxial tube. Even materials in which a variable thermal conductivity is caused by a change in the molecular structure, are possible.
  • a further variant according to the invention consists in that a double-walled coaxial tube is used, which is equipped with special layers for the emission and absorption of thermal radiation.
  • the outer tube of the double-walled coaxial tube is provided on the inside with a variable selective layer. This layer emits little or no thermal radiation at low temperatures, as they prevail in normal operation of the collector.
  • variable-selective layer is able to radiate heat.
  • the outer side of the inner coaxial tube can be provided with an absorption layer. The heat is transferred to the cold reservoir after absorption by the inner coaxial tube.
  • Inner and outer coaxial tube are preferably connected together at the ends, so that a cavity is formed. Since the emission and absorption layers are located in the cavity of the coaxial tube, they do not come into contact with the heat transfer medium and are protected against abrasion, deposits and chemical changes.
  • the location of the inner coaxial tube in the outer coaxial tube may be concentric or eccentric.
  • Particularly suitable for the absorbent layer of the inner coaxial tube are ceramic layers having an absorption maximum in the infrared range of the light spectrum.
  • the cavity of the coaxial tube can be evacuated.
  • the convection balloon consists of a double-walled coaxial tube with the ends of the tubes joined together to create a cavity between the inner and outer tubes in which convection can take place.
  • the cavity is filled with a small amount of a medium which evaporates at a certain temperature.
  • This medium is called convection medium.
  • the cold and the warm heat transfer medium are separated by the coaxial tube or the convection balloon.
  • the heat transfer medium rises along the absorber wall and heats up.
  • the heat transfer medium is still cold, so that the convection medium in the convection balloon is in the liquid state of aggregation.
  • the upper portion of the convection balloon contains a gas or gas mixture with low thermal conductivity.
  • various noble gases are particularly suitable. Even a low pressure reduces the thermal conductivity.
  • the relatively low thermal conductivity of the gas ensures that little heat is transferred to the cold heat transfer medium inside.
  • the heat transfer medium between the absorber tube and the convection balloon is heated along the entire length to the lower area, where the convection medium is located in the convection balloon. If the temperature of the heat transfer medium exceeds the boiling point of the convection medium, it changes to the vaporous state of matter. The resulting vapor rises on the outer wall of the convection balloon and continues to absorb heat from the heat transfer medium. The convection medium condenses on the inside of the convection balloon, transferring heat to the cold heat transfer medium. The condensed convection medium flows down. The convection of the convection medium creates a cycle in which heat is transferred from the absorber layer to the inside of the convection balloon to the cold reservoir.
  • the heat transfer medium on the outside of the convection balloon is prevented from overheating and causing damage.
  • the collector yield is increased because the heat radiation is minimized to the outside by a low collector temperature and the heat transported into the interior is not lost.
  • the convection fluid used such as ethanol, water or a mixture of substances and the prevailing pressures in the convection balloon, the boiling point and thus the start of the heat transfer can be defined.
  • the sealing substance should advantageously not be miscible with the convection medium, have a higher boiling point and have a lower specific gravity.
  • water can be used as convection medium and oil or paraffin for sealing.
  • a further variant according to the invention of the coaxial tube with variable heat capacity consists in that the coaxial tube is made up of at least two nested tubes.
  • a coaxial tube with several "layers" is formed, the tubes are open at both ends, and the openings of the tubes located further inwards are preferably smaller on the inflow side of the cold heat transfer medium than the opening of the outer tube cold heat transfer medium in the outer layer of the coaxial tube, between the outer tube and the nearest inner tube, heat transferred through the wall of the outer tube to the cold heat transfer medium is drawn to the outflow side of the coaxial tube. transported alrohrs. Thereafter, the heat transfer medium flows in the gap between the inside of the absorber tube and the outside of the coaxial tube back up, where it is further heated.
  • the heat transfer can be further reduced by further similar layers of the coaxial tube.
  • the ratio of the volume flows of the heat transfer medium through the layers of the coaxial tube is determined by the ratio of the tube openings between the layers.
  • the standstill temperature is the ratio of the absorber surface to the volume of the heat transfer medium.
  • the non-removed heat is stored for the most part in the collector. It is released slowly to the environment and is also available after sunset.
  • the heat transfer medium in the gap between the coaxial tube and the absorber tube gradually cools down without further supply of light - depending on the quality of the selective coating and the vacuum.
  • the release of the heat stored in the cold reservoir is carried out according to the invention via the coaxial tube.
  • the Heat dissipation fast since the coaxial tube has a high thermal conductivity. It results in the convection balloon from a convection in the reverse direction in which heat is transported from the inside out. With increasing cooling, the convection fluid condenses more and more and the thermal conductivity of the convection balloon decreases. The residual heat from the cold reservoir is released increasingly slowly to the environment. This has the advantage that on the one hand this heat can be used over a longer period of time.
  • the period of one night is long enough for the heat transfer medium to cool down to such an extent that it also provides a sufficiently large cold reservoir on the following day in order to be able to limit the standstill temperature.
  • the heat transfer medium for large volumes and warm nights not fully cooled ensures a device that the heat not only through the coaxial tube to the Environment is given, but the convection of the heat transfer medium itself gets going.
  • a connection with a valve is created between the headers for the hot and cold heat transfer medium. The valve opens and closes a circuit between cold and warm heat transfer medium. If the valve opens, the warm heat transfer medium rises from the interior of the coaxial tube.
  • the coaxial tube On the outside of the coaxial tube or via an intermediate cooler, it is cooled, sinks down and flows from below into the interior of the coaxial tube. In this way, the high heat transfer resistance of the coaxial tube is bypassed and also a large heat transfer volume can be completely cooled so that it can absorb a corresponding amount of energy on the following day.
  • the large diameter of the coaxial tubes offers advantages for easy venting of the collector system, as air bubbles in the coaxial tube can rise without being entrained by the heat carrier flow.
  • the unproblematic way of venting offers the possibility of coupling the collector to a drain-back system in which the heat transfer medium is at a standstill is drained. This offers another possibility to cool the heat transfer medium overnight.
  • it also has the advantage that at very low temperatures in winter the heat transfer medium already reaches the collector at a relatively high temperature level (room temperature) and no energy is required to bring the heat transfer medium from minus temperatures to this temperature level.
  • a transparent cover of the collector for example in the form of a glass sheet, which is arranged so that it comes in the sun in the summer at noon for reflection.
  • the direct light is reflected so that it does not reach the collector. In the remaining times, the light can reach the collector largely unhindered.
  • the collectors of the invention When filled, the collectors of the invention have a much higher weight than conventional, which in freestanding assembly -. on flat roofs - is advantageous in terms of wind loads, because there is no need to provide additional weights.
  • the collector mounting device By limiting the standstill temperatures, it is possible to completely dispense with the construction of the collector on expensive metals such as aluminum or copper and instead advantageously to use plastic.
  • plastic On the one hand, the use of plastic enables new less expensive production techniques, such as injection molding.
  • the functions of several collector components, such as the distributor of the inflowing cold heat carrier medium or the effluent hot heat transfer medium and the thermal insulation, locking the collector tubes, the manifold housing and the collector mounting device can be integrated into a single component.
  • integrating different functions in a component poses problems when there are hot and cold zones are that expand differently and lead to the deformation of the component. This is the case, for example, if the distributors for cold and hot heat transfer medium are provided in one component.
  • the solution to this problem is a segmentation of the distributor.
  • Each segment has the same or similar functions, with different length expansions within a segment being compensated by flexible elements between the segments.
