Algorithm for sizing parabolic-trough solar collectors
Thermal Science and Engineering Progress, 2021 Abstract This work aims at developing a working algorithm to evaluate the necessary parabolic-trough solar collectors (PTCs) sizing for any application, basically, as a function of the thermal load and the demanded operating temperature. Energy balance and heat transfer accurate estimations were applied to the PTC parts resulting in a set of non ...

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement
Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 9, 5 May 2026.Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination systems.
