Midtemperature solar systems test facility predictions for thermal performance based on test data: Acurex solar collector with glass reflector surface

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6883449

Sandia National Laboratories, Albuquerque (SNLA), is currently conducting a program to predict the performance and measure the characteristics of commercially available solar collectors that have the potential for use in industrial process heat and enhanced oil recovery applications. The thermal performance predictions for the Acurex solar line-focusing parabolic trough collector for five cities in the US are presented. (WHK)
