Investigation of the coupled dependence of concentrated solar radiation and combustion in a novel solar hybrid technology [ 2011 - 2014 ]

Research Grant

Researchers Nathan Prof Graham 'Gus' J; A/Prof Bassam B Dally; Dr Zeyad T Alwahabi; Prof Heinz Pitsch; Mr Terry Kallis

Brief description The project will develop the models necessary for the optimisation of a novel solar-combustion hybrid technology and a novel heat exchanger component. It will deliver a solar thermal technology that lowers the cost of solar energy with immediate potential in off-grid sites, such as in remote mines, in Australia and throughout the world.
