RISGeneration of a Parabolic Trough Collector Efficiency Curve From Separate Measurements of Outdoor Optical Efficiency and Indoor Receiver Heat Loss
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The thermal efficiency of a parabolic trough collector is a function of both the fraction of direct normal radiation absorbed by the receiver (the optical efficiency) and the heat lost to the ...
Experimental Analysis of Overall Thermal Properties of Parabolic Trough Receivers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The heat loss of a receiver in a parabolic trough collector plays an important role in collector performance. A number of methods have been used to measure the thermal loss of a receiver ...
