Abstract
Provided are metal-ceramic coatings for heat exchanger tubes of a central solar receiver and methods of preparing the same. The metal-ceramic coatings comprise at least one ceramic phase dispersed in a metal matrix and are disposed along the heat exchanger tubes to improve heat transfer and reduce oxidation of the heat exchanger tubes. Methods of preparing the metal-ceramic coatings and systems for using the same are provided.
