Résumé

The solar absorptance of a thermal receiver surface significantly affects the photothermal conversion efficiency of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants. The stability of solar receivers and coatings applied to improve solar absorptance at high temperatures is critical for efficient and long-term operation. This study analyzes the high-temperature air stability of multiscale fractal textured electrodeposited copper manganese oxide and copper cobalt oxide solar receiver coatings over a range of temperatures. The study also investigates the effect of high temperature on phase stability, chemical and morphological evolution, and the optical properties of the two solar absorber materials. A computational model is developed to determine the absorptance of the textured absorbers and is shown to match the experimental measurements closely over a range of heat treatment temperatures from 450 °C to 850 °C and durations up to 100 h. Degradation curves and coating stability maps are developed from the study. Copper manganese oxide and copper cobalt oxide coatings exhibit good thermal stability up to ~815 °C and 630 °C, respectively, with minimal changes in their optical and structural properties with thermal efficiency greater than 90%. The study offers valuable insights into the high-temperature annealing effects on the optical and structural properties of multiscale copper alloyed coatings fabricated by electrodeposition and presents a means of designing the optimal temperature range for maximizing absorber efficiency in practical applications.
