Abstract:
A comparative study was carried out incorporating a novel approach for thermal performance evaluations of commonly used parabolic trough collectors, namely the Euro, Sky, and Helio troughs. In the analysis, pressurized water and therminol-VP1 (eutectic mixture of diphenyl oxide (DPO) and biphenyl) fluid were introduced as working fluids, and the governing equation of energy was simulated for various working fluid mass flow rates and inlet temperatures. The thermal performance of the troughs was assessed by incorporating the first- and second-law efficiencies and by using temperature increases

AbstractRecently, the thermal performance of the parabolic trough collector (PTC), augmented to be more applicable and efficient, received intensive research. These studies aimed to improve heat transfer in the receiver part, in order to decrease the heat loss, and enhance the heat transfer to the thermal fluid. Many previous review papers focused on the numerical sides rather than the experimental side. Several research papers recommended doing more research in the experimental field; in order to decrease the gap between the numerical and experimental results, as well as increase the confiden

Concentrated solar power has the potential to produce large-scale renewable energy sources. Concentrated solar energy is produced using mirrors, reflective materials, or lenses on conical surfaces such as a parabolic dishes, parabolic troughs, towers, Fresnel reflector systems, and dish sterling collectors. The concentrated light source was converted into heat energy, which drove the heat engine into an electrical power generator. To gain more heat energy, the solar rays must be trapped and concentrated on their conical focus points. To increase the net overall efficiency of the system, it is

However, it is hard to non-destructively measure the gas species and partial pressure in the annulus of the receiver. In this paper, a novel non-destructive method was presented to

Abstract:
The parabolic trough collector provides an extensive range of solar heating and electricity production applications in solar power plants. The receiver tube of the parabolic trough collector has a vital role in enhancing its performance by using different inserts inside it. In the present work, outdoor experimental tests were conducted to study the performance of a small-scale parabolic trough collector equipped with a centrally placed rotating helical shaft. Three cases were studied: a parabolic trough collector without helical shaft insert, a parabolic trough collector with stationary helica

Abstract:
Concentrated solar power is the technology involving reflectors which reflects the solar radiation and concentrates the radiations onto a receiver which absorbs the solar radiation and rises the temperature of the fluid flowing through it and the fluid is further used for process heating or power generation. Solar parabolic trough is the most established technology among the concentrated solar power technologies. For the optimization of the technology it is important to optimize the parabolic trough collectors from structural point of view as even gravity load is observed to cause a substantia

Abstract:
The present paper investigates the performance of helical coil solar cavity receiver based parabolic trough concentrator (PTC) for the conversion of energy received from the Sun into useful heat and finally electricity. The experimental set-up has been designed in such a way that it enhances heat transfer coefficient and reduces losses in the PTC. The PTC comprised of a blackened helical coil made up of two concentric borosilicate glass cylinder with vacuum in the annulus, which is kept at a focal line of PTC. The vacuum significantly reduces the losses which are evident from a relatively high

Dispersing small amounts of solid nano particles into base-fluid has a significant impact on the thermo-physical properties of the base-fluid. These properties are utilized for effective capture and transportation of solar energy. This paper attempts key idea for harvesting solar energy by using alumina nanofluid in concentrating parabolic trough collectors. An experimental study is carried out to investigate the performance of a parabolic trough collector using Al2O3-H2O based nanofluid. Results clearly indicate that at same ambient, inlet temperatures, flow rate, concentration ratio etc. hik

Abstract:
The efficiency of a Parabolic Trough (PT) Solar Power Plant heavily relies on its thermal performance. Modern technology has allowed for the creation of more efficient methods of producing steam and of collecting solar energy for thermal power generation. Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE) built and tested an 11.1 m2 parabolic trough concentrator (PTC). A system that generates steam indirectly by using concentrating solar power (CSP) is examined. The study examined absorbers' thermal properties, thermal efficiency of combined thermal exchangers, concentration ratio, heat efficiency,

Abstract:
Concentrating Solar Power Technology (CSP) is nowadays growing mainly due to the technical and economic success of the first projects and to the stable green pricing or support mechanisms that bridges the initial gap in electricity costs (i.e. feed-in tariffs). Future growth will depend on a successful cost reduction and on a strong effort in R&D to optimize the potential for technical improvement [1]. Testing of new materials, components and systems is still of key importance to drive research and innovation improvements to a commercial stage. Receiver manufacturers are investing in R&amp
