Re: [TRNSYS-users] heat pipe

[Jeff Thornton <thornton@tess-inc.com>]

It depends on how you'd like to model the collector.  If the collector has been tested to one of the common standards (EN12975-2 for example), then it can be readily modeled in TRNSYS.  If you are looking for a detailed physics-based first principles model of a concentrating heat pipe collector, I am not aware of one.

Dear for all

I would like to know , is TRNSYS solve parabolic trough solar collector with heat pipe?

i mean that the heat pipe is consist two part (evaporator+condenser), theromsyphon occurs in the heat pipe

the heat pipe places in the focal line of the parabolic

Many Thanks
