Thermomechanics of Solar Receivers: Structural Materials, Components, and Systems provides a comprehensive exploration of the latest advancements in solar receiver technology. The book begins by laying a strong foundation in the basic principles of solar receivers, including their thermodynamic behavior and the essential properties of structural materials. Readers are guided through critical theoretical concepts such as stress, strain, thermal buckling, elastic deflection, thermal shock, creep, fatigue, and structural failure, which are vital for understanding the performance and durability of solar receiver systems. This essential resource bridges theoretical understanding with practical applications in concentrated solar power. In addition to its thorough and theoretical coverage, the book delves into advanced design techniques, including thermomechanical simulation, optimization, and structural design specifically tailored to solar receivers. It also addresses testing protocols, explores innovative applications, and discusses the challenges and opportunities facing solar receiver technology. The final chapters emphasize ongoing advancements and provide valuable insights for researchers, students, engineers, and industry professionals seeking to enhance CSP performance and drive innovation in solar energy systems.
