Dynamic operation of a hybrid air-driven concentrating solar thermal system based on rotary receiver and radial thermocline

Air-driven concentrating solar thermal (CST) systems can supply heat up to 800 °C for supercritical CO 2 (sCO 2 ) Brayton cycles and process heat, but their integrated transient behaviour under variable solar input and hybrid electric heating remains uncharacterised. This study d...
