Experimental Investigation on the Effect of Partially Metal Foam inside the Absorber of Parabolic Trough Solar Collector
In the present work the efficiency of a solar parabolic trough has been investigated experimentality. parabolic trough solar collector constitute a proven source of thermal energy for industrial process heat and power genaration. The impact of using the partially porous media in the absorber on the efficiency of PTC (parabolic trough collector) has been investigated. The porosity of copper foa...
متن کاملExergetic and Thermoeconomic Analyses of Solar Air Heating Processes Using a Parabolic Trough Collector
This paper presents a theoretical and practical analysis of the application of the thermoeconomic method. A furnace for heating air is evaluated using the methodology. The furnace works with solar energy, received from a parabolic trough collector and with electricity supplied by an electric power utility. The methodology evaluates the process by the first and second law of thermodynamics as th...
متن کامل2 00 7 A closed parabolic trough solar collector
Parabolic trough[1] is the most mature technology for large scale exploitation of solar energy. Several power plants based on this technology have been operational for years, and more are being built. However, the current technology suffers from a too high installation cost. This high cost makes it very hard to compete economically with fossil energy without government subsidies, compromising t...
متن کاملAn experimental investigation of performance of a 3-D solar conical collector at different flow rates
The shape of a solar collector is an important factor in solar-to-thermal energy conversion. Conical shape is one of the stationary and symmetric shapes that can be employed as a solar water heater. Flow rate of working fluid on the solar collector has an important effect on the efficiency of the collector. The present study is an experimentally investigated of the performance of the solar coni...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Nanofluid (Al2O3/H2O-C2H6O2) Based Parabolic Solar Collector Using Both Experimental and CFD Techniques
The present work evaluates the performance of solar collector using Al2O3-C2H6O2-H2O nanofluid as a working fluid through both experimental and CFD analysis. Ethylene-glycol water mixture (40:60 v/v) is used as base fluid, where α-Al2O3 nanoparticle of 20 nm average size is dispersed for the preparation of nanofluid of four different volumetric concentration (vol. conc.) of 0.05, 0.075, 0.1 and...
