In this work we compared three heat transfer fluids (HTFs) for parabolic trough solar collectors (PTCs), namely, Syltherm 800, Therminol VP-1, and Dowtherm Q. For the assessment, we adopted and ...

In this video we dive into compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs) and their incredible ability to focus light from multiple ...

Photovoltaic cells are the best known devices to convert solar energy into useful electrical energy, however, in the most efficient multijunction solar cells, more than half of the input solar energy ...
