Numerical 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 کاملManufacturing a trough parabolic solar collector and predicting its theoretical performance
The aim of this research was manufacturing a parabolic trough solar collector in which reflecting surface is made of mirror steel rather than usual mirror and also predicting its theoretical performance.by adjusting planar ⩝ -shaped structures parallel to each other and welding them together, the main supporting structure was assembled and a parabolic-shape Teflon arc was installed in the apert...
متن کاملAssessment of a Molten Salt Heat Transfer Fluid in a Parabolic Trough Solar Field
An evaluation was carried out to investigate the feasibility of utilizing a molten salt as the heat transfer fluid (HTF) and for thermal storage in a parabolic trough solar field to improve system performance and to reduce the levelized electricity cost. The operating SEGS1 plants currently use a high temperature synthetic oil consisting of a eutectic mixture of biphenyl/diphenyl oxide. The sco...
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...
