Abstract
This is a numerical study on heat transfer in a volumetric receiver applied in solar plants based on concentrating solar radiation. The mathematical model and the numerical techniques are presented. The result is for a dimensional study with a high temperature imposed on the porous media surface. It is observed that the porous media strongly plays its role as to increase the contact area of air to be heated and the solid conductive material with prescribed temperature on one surface as to approximate effects of incident radiation on such surface. Radiation is not considered in this work.
