Numerical analysis and multi-objective optimization design of parabolic trough receiver with ribbed absorber tube

Parabolic trough collector (PTC) is the most cost-effective and mature concentrated solar power (CSP) technology for solar thermal utilization. However, the highly concentrated solar irradiation on the bottom of the absorber tube causes high local temperature, thermal stress and deformation, further...
