TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the computational method to investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics of turbulent sCO2 in a large horizontal tube with the buoyancy effects taken into account, RNG and three selected low-Reynolds number k - e turbulence models have been validated against experiments published in literatures.

TL;DR: In this article, a spray cooling system utilizing water evaporation was developed to pre-cool the inlet hot air in concentrated solar power (CSP) plants built in dry and arid areas, and different designs of spray cooling systems were proposed and tested on a 20 m high experimental tower.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results of computational investigations on cooling heat transfer of turbulent sCO2 in three horizontal tubes with diameter of 15.75 mm, 20.00 mm and 24.36 mm.

TL;DR: In this paper, a spray cooling system consisting of multiple nozzles was tested on a 20'm high experimental tower, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the world's first attempt to practice spray enhancement of NDDCT at full scale.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the turbulent heat transfer of sCO flows cooled in large horizontal tubes with diameter of 15.75 mm, 20 mm and 24.36 mm using RANS turbulence models.
