The use of ceramic particles, alone or in suspension within an air stream, as a heat transfer medium is one of the current focussed areas for the development of high temperature receiver-based concentrated solar thermal technologies. These solid particle receiver systems have the potential to achieve operating temperatures of >1000◦C, which is typically required for high temperature industrial processes. This requires the use of either expensive high temperature metals or linings of refractory, which is both brittle and has high thermal inertia. While the refractory is a proven material used in high temperature furnaces, limited information is available on the use of refractory linings in solar receivers while accounting for transie...
