Article Snippet: Mesh of the fluid domain in the ANSYS Fluent 2D model of LFC receiver: (a) and (c) for the receiver design presented in Ref. [ ], considered for validation of the modeling approach; and (b) and (d) for the cavity receiver of the LFC prototype installed at PSA. summarizes the following results for the six cases solved, including the following: (i) the total heat loss in the cavity; (ii) the mean temperature of the air inside the cavity ( T c a v i t y ), and (iii) the mean temperature of the lateral surface of the cavity ( T i n n e r ), compared all them with the mean temperature of the tubes ( T p i p e ).
