ABSTRACT: This work aims at the mathematical modeling of a parabolic trough concentrator, the numerical resolution of the resulting equation, as well as the simulation of the heat transfer fluid ...

ABSTRACT: Design and Development of a Parabolic Trough Solar Air Heater (PTSAH) for a Greenhouse Dryer (GD) was done to improve the dryer’s performance. The materials used for the fabrication of the ...

In cooperation with the partner IMK Solarmirrotec, the parabolic trough collectors were manufactured much more efficiently using industrial production methods such as injection moulding technology.

The Energy Central Power Industry Network® is based on one core idea - power industry professionals helping each other and advancing the industry by sharing and learning from each other. If you have ...

This paper proposes the design, construction and thermal characterization of a horizontal extruder machine integrated with a parabolic trough concentrator with a one-axis solar tracking system, in ...

The 4th phase included the installation of more than 790,000 photovoltaic solar panels and more than 63,600 parabolic trough collectors (PT). The project integrates 70,000 mirrors (heliostats) that ...
