  • the wall thickness of heat collector tubes used particularly in the direct steam generation method is low, the pressure of the fluid should be below a certain level. This also causes the steam obtained from the solar energy system to have a low pressure. Since the steam outlet from a single heat collector tube is not adequate to operate a steam turbine, it is not feasible to obtain high efficiency from this type of solar energy systems.
