Vacuum Tube for Parabolic Trough Collector
Types of Vacuum Tubes for Parabolic Trough Collectors Vacuum tubes are essential components in parabolic trough collectors, a type of concentrated solar power (CSP) system. These systems use
Due to the precise shape of the mirrors, sunlight is concentrated into a narrow line, resulting in extremely high temperatures of up to 550°C. Inside the receiver tube of a solar trough collector, a heat transfer fluid flows through and is heated by the concentrated sunlight.
The radiation from solar energy source available on the earth's plane can easily be drawn out and transform to useful energy by PTC. The parabolic solar trough collector features reflectors with a parabolic shape, designed to gather solar intensity and redirect it toward the tube positioned along the focal line.
Modern parabolic trough collectors are very reliable and can last over 20 years*. Since they store heat and provide power when needed, they're ideal in scenarios that require a continuous power supply and industrial uses that need high heat.
Heat flux values are noted lengthwise and widthwise from the plot. As observed in Fig. 8 c, the bottom part of the tube is bared to larger amount of reflected beams from the parabolic-shaped trough.
