Abstract As a promising application of solar energy, parabolic trough solar thermal power generation technology is one of the most important methods of solar thermal utilization. This paper takes the SEGS VI parabolic trough plant as the research object and proposes an improved 30 MW parabolic trough solar thermal power plant.
And solar collector's thermal efficiency is primarily focused on the concentration ratio. The parabolic trough collector has diversified applications like heat generation, power generation and desalinisation. The process of converting saline water into potable water is termed as desalination process.
Simulation software programs of mathematical models and techniques are very useful during the analysis of physical systems especially in our investigation for solar parabolic trough collectors systems. Different kinds of software models and test methods of solar collectors have been developed since 1981.
Solar parabolic trough systems were used to provide chilled water from the mechanical energy produced from the thermal energy such as Balghouthi et al. studied the optical and thermal performance for PTSC by photogrammetric techniques and found the optical and thermal efficiencies were the same (0.58) with respect ASHRAE technique 93 (1986).
