Parabolic trough (solar) collectors (PTCs) are technical devices to collect the energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it typically into thermal energy at temperature ranges of 150–500 C at industrial scale. The cylindrical trough shape of the reflecting surface ...
Albiasa Solar (Spain) has also developed and tested a new collector, called the Albiasa Trough. Again, the size is the same as the LS-3, but the design concept is similar to the LS-2. The main difference from the Sener design is the torque tube.

Because of its wide temperature range (up to 400 C), the parabolic trough solar collector is the most commonly used in concentrated solar power technology. A parabolic trough solar collector can be divided into two types based on its applications: low to medium temperature and medium to high temperature.
Parabolic Trough Solar Collector (PTSC) is one of such concentrating collectors which concentrates the solar insolation on the focal axis of parabolic reflectors where receiver is located. The absorber receives the thermal energy of arriving solar irradiations and transmissions the same to the Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF).

This chapter gives an overview of the parabolic-trough collector (PTC) technology, the technology most widely used in solar thermal power plants today. It includes a brief history of the earliest parabolic-troughs …
In solar thermal energy, all concentrating solar power (CSP) technologies use solar thermal energy from sunlight to make power. A solar field of mirrors concentrates the sun''s energy onto a receiver that traps the heat and stores it in thermal energy storage till needed to create steam to drive a turbine to produce electrical power. […]

A parabolic trough collector (PTC) is a type of solar thermal collector that is straight in one dimension and curved as a parabola in the other two, lined with a polished metal mirror. The sunlight which enters the mirror parallel to its plane of symmetry is focused along the focal line, where objects are positioned that are intended to be heated. In a solar cooker, for example, food is placed at the foc…
This paper presents an overview of the parabolic-trough collectors that have been built and marketed during the past century, as well as the prototypes currently under development.
Notably, the Ivanpah Solar plant is the largest power tower plant globally, boasting a capacity of 377 MW. Linear Fresnel reflectors (LFR) contribute 7.7% to the installed capacity. Among commercial parabolic trough collector (PTC) plants, the 5 …
