Physics

The central receiver of a solar power plant is in the form of acylinder 7m in diameter and 13 m high. A tower supports thereceiver high above the ground, and solar radiation is reflected tothe receiver by rows of reflectors at ground level. The operatingtemperature of its surface is 700K and the temperature of the stillambient air is 300 K. The total irradiation of the collector is 20MW.

Perform a parametric analysis to study the effect on the heatconvection coefficient and the percentage of loss of heat transferrate due to the variation of the following variables: height,surface temperature, ambient temperature and wind velocity.
