This project is designed to develop a new class of thermal receivers that overcome key challenges in today's concentrating solar thermal systems. The development of accurate micro/nanofabrication and characterisation techniques in recent years has made it possible to achieve thermofluid devices that are engineered from the bottom up to achieve high performance at relatively low cost. This project aims to develop a new class of solar thermal receivers which use micro/nanotechnology to directly absorb concentrated solar energy with very little pumping power and minimal radiative heat loss. By tailoring the geometry and materials inside the receiver, the project expects to achieve a unique level of integrated optical, heat transfer and fluid flow control.

该项目旨在开发一种新型的热接收器，以克服当今聚光式太阳能热系统中的关键挑战。近年来，精确的微/纳米加工和表征技术的发展使得实现自下而上设计的热流体装置成为可能，以相对较低的成本获得高性能。本项目旨在开发一种新型的太阳能热接收器，它利用微/纳米技术直接吸收集中的太阳能，泵浦功率非常小，辐射热损失最小。通过定制接收器内部的几何结构和材料，该项目预计将实现独特的集成光学、热传递和流体流动控制。
