April 29, 2020, 21:54	Parabolic Trough Solar Concentrator Simulation	#1
andrew.saad New Member Andrew Saad Join Date: Apr 2020 Posts: 3 Rep Power: 6	Dear all, I'm simulation a 3D parabolic trough solar concentrator on ANSYS Fluent bur I have a problem defining the parabolic trough itself as a reflective surface so the solar radiation that it's receiving it has to be reflected back and concentrated on the water tube. So how can I do so? Thanks in advance,
