A review on passive methods for thermal performance enhancement in parabolic trough solar collectors

Mridul Sharma et al.

Summary: Solar energy harnessing, particularly using parabolic trough solar collectors, is common in many countries for applications like distributing process heat and steam production. Focus has been on improving the thermal potential of the receiver tube, with passive techniques such as inserts and geometrical changes showing efficiency in increasing thermal performance. Studies on heat transfer enhancement strategies using inserts and geometrical modifications in parabolic trough solar collector's receiver tube indicate potential for further growth in this area.

Modelling and analysis of a hybrid solar dryer for woody biomass

Ahmed Khouya

Summary: This study evaluated the energy and performance of a hybrid solar dryer for woody biomass, developing a mathematical model to predict heat and mass transfer during the drying process. Results showed that the combined use of a solar air collector and a heat pump can effectively reduce energy consumption and improve thermal performance during biomass drying.

Performance evaluation of adding Helical-screw Tape Inserts in Parabolic Solar Trough Collectors as a Source of Cleaner Energy Production

Aneeq Raheem et al.

Summary: Solar energy is crucial due to population growth and global warming, with Parabolic Trough Collectors being widely used for various purposes. The use of helical screw tape inserts in circular tubes can enhance efficiency, and a parametric study revealed optimal values for thickness, helix angle, and inner diameter. Modifying inserts with holes or fins can increase pressure drop slightly, while a tapered-helix design can reduce pressure drop at the expense of decreased Nusselt number. Increasing Performance Evaluation Criteria will be an effective step towards a cleaner environment for Parabolic Trough Collectors.

Experimental study of a parabolic trough solar collector with rotating absorber tube

Amir Mohammad Norouzi et al.

Summary: The study shows that in parabolic trough solar collectors, selecting the appropriate rotational speed of the absorber tube can significantly reduce temperature differences and maximum surface temperature, while increasing efficiency by approximately 17%. The Ta/Re ratio and CEP play crucial roles in predicting the optimal efficiency.
