Abstract
A thermal collector tube includes a main body portion that houses a heat medium, and a coating layer provided on an outside surface of the main body portion. The coating layer has a radiation rate of 0.70 to 0.98 at room temperature and at a wavelength of 1 μm to 15 μm. The thermal collector tube is used in concentrated solar power generation in which solar light is collected using reflecting mirrors, the collected solar light is converted into heat using a thermal collector having the thermal collector tube, and power is generated using the heat.
