Abstract This study includes an experimental and numerical analysis of the performances of a parabolic trough collector (PTC) with and without cylindrical turbulators. The PTC is designed with dimensions of 2.00 m in length and 1.00 m in width. The related reflector is made of lined sheets of aluminum, and the tubes are made of stainless steel used for the absorption of heat. They have an outer diameter of 0.051 m and a wall thickness of 0.002 m. Water, used as a heat transfer fluid (HTF), flows through the absorber tube at a mass flow rate… More >
