Performance Enhancement of Parabolic Dish Collector Receiver Using Phase Change Material: A CFD Simulation

The design of novel and effective receivers is one of the most challenging aspects of solar energy harvesters, especially for Parabolic Dish Collectors (PDCs). The variation of solar flux due to the solar time and sky clearance index can affect the output thermal energy of the collector. One of the...
