The use of porous receiver tubes and nanoparticle addition into the heat transfer fluid (HTF)
are two effective strategies to improve the thermal performance of parabolic trough solar …

Abstract Supercritical CO 2 (S-CO 2) is an attractive heat transfer fluid (HTF) candidate for
application in parabolic trough receivers (PTRs). The thermal and mechanical performances …

Large-scale solar heating plants for district heating networks have gained great success in
Europe, particularly in Denmark. A hybrid solar district heating plant with 5960 m 2 flat plate …

By year 2030, the world's energy demand is expected to increase by over 60% of current
demand. Thus, the potential of renewable energy should be investigated. Renewable …

The use of solar thermal systems to produce heat for industrial processes is a feasible option
that is gaining increasing interest in recent years as an initiative toward the zero-carbon …
