  A Taguchi approach for determination of parametric dependence in absorber tube of parabolic trough solar collector with roughened surfaces

  By Pooja Ghodasara, Jiten Makadia, Sanket Pandya, Vijay Mehta

  Abstract: The Taguchi experimental design approach is used in this study to offer the ideal design parameters for the absorber tube with roughened surfaces. In order to determine parametric dependence, passive heat transfer augmentation strategies have been used in the parabolic trough receiver in this article by applying the Taguchi approach. So, for better understanding, two case studies are analyzed using two augmentation technique i.e., wire coil and twisted tape inserts. …

  Heat Transfer Analysis Through External Fins by CFD Tool

  By Manmatha K. Roul, Laxman K. Sahoo, Saipad B.B.P.J. Sahu, Sibakanta Sahu, Ashok K. Pradhan, Prateek D. Roul

  Abstract: The natural convection heat transfer from the heated vertical plates to air can be enhanced with the amendment in the shape of the plates. One of the methods for increasing the heat transfer is by the use of extended surfaces such as external fins. This study includes the CFD analysis of the heat transfer enhancement through different fins having various shapes and sizes considering both conductive and nonconductive fins. The …
