METHOD OF CREATING AN OPTIMUM HEAT EXCHANGE IN AN ASSEMBLY COMPRISING A THERMALLY-CONDUCTIVE ABSORBENT PLATE AND A HEAT-TRANSFER FLUID

摘要

The invention relates to a method of optimising heat exchanges between (i) a thermally-conductive absorbent plate (1) which is exposed to thermal radiation and a heat-transfer fluid (3) circulating in at least one thermally-conductive conduit tube (2) that is in thermal contact with the plate (1) and (ii) within the heat-transfer fluid (3). The invention is characterised in that, in order to promote heat exchanges, the method uses zones of the aforementioned plate (1) in order to form part of the wall of the conduit tube (2), such that the heat-transfer fluid (3) is in direct contact with the plate (1) so as to reduce the thermal resistance between the plate (1) and the heat-transfer fluid (3) circulating inside the conduit tube (2), said conduit tubes (2) being disposed on the two faces of the plate (1) and being interconnected by means of holes (4) that provided on the plate.
