Abstract
⺠A model for the performances of volumetric solar air receiver was developed. ⺠Sensitivity studies show the thermal non-equilibrium phenomena are distinct locally. ⺠The mean cell size has a dominant effect on the performances of solar air receiver. ⺠The solid thermal conductivity of absorber is not important to the air receiver. ⺠The desired temperature distribution of the absorber is realizable.
