Abstract:Experimental setup of the integrated parabolic trough collector (PTC) with solar still was developed. PTC was designed considering the solar geometry and the physical laws of parabolic shape and the concentrators. Test were conducted at the location with latitude 19.9975ON and longitude 73.7898OE. Theoretical analysis was done using ray tracing and engineering equation solver (EES) software while designing the system. PTC system was developed with dimensions of 1.5 m length, 1 m width and a concentration ratio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
