Investigation of stress and deflection in absorber of parabolic trough solar collector for direct steam generation
The tubular absorber of a parabolic trough solar collector (PTSC) experiences deflection and thermal stress during the operation due to the adverse circumferential and longitudinal thermal gradient in the direct steam generation (DSG) process. This study presents the coupled three-dimensional therma...
