Boosting the thermal efficiency of a flat-tube parabolic trough solar collector with the introduction of innovative slashed triangular prism turbulators

This study focuses on enhancing the thermal performance of parabolic trough solar collectors (PTSC) by modifying the geometry of the absorber tube to a flat design. For the first time, an innovative turbulator known as the triangular prisms turbulator (TPT) has been utilized, with its geometry speci...
