Improvements in efficiency of solar parabolic trough
Solar energy is primary source of all type of energy which is present in nature i.e. all the energy derived from it. So, direct utilization of solar energy into useful energy is important. There are so many solar thermal equipments in which concentrating type collector heated the fluid up to 100 to 400C. It is employed for a variety of applications such as power generation, industrial steam gen...
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 کاملNumerical analysis of performance of solar parabolic trough collector with Cu-Water nanofluid
In the present work the effect of Cu-Water nanofluid, as heat transfer fluid, on the performance of a parabolic solar collector was studied numerically. The temperature field, thermal efficiency, mean-outlet temperatures have been evaluated and compared for the conventional parabolic collectors and nanofluid based collectors. Further, the effect of various parameters such as fluid velocity, vol...
متن کاملA Parabolic Trough Solar Power Plant Simulation Model: Preprint
As interest for clean renewable electric power technologies grows, a number of parabolic trough power plants of various configurations are being considered for deployment around the globe. It is essential that plant designs be optimized for each specific application. The optimum design must consider the capital cost, operations and maintenance cost, annual generation, financial requirements, an...
متن کاملDesigning a Solar Thermal Cylindrical Parabolic Trough Concentrator by Simulation
The focus on renewable energy in Malaysia gained momentum with the active involvement of the government and the private sector. This move can potentially help in diversifying the country's energy options besides relying on oil, natural gas, coal and hydropower. The scope of this paper is to look at the designing procedures of a solar thermal cylindrical parabolic trough concentrator (CPTC) by s...
