A novel linear Fresnel reflector which employs the evacuated tube, CPC secondary reflector, and uses molten salt as the heat transfer fluid (HTF) was designed and studied in this paper. A 3D optical model was developed to simulate the radiation transmission within the system with Monte Carlo Ray...

The main purpose of the present work is to investigate numerically the effects of number and location of stabilizer jets on the combustion characteristics and NOx emission in a jet-stabilized combustor (JSC). A Finite Volume staggered grid approach is employed to solve the governing equations....
