Coupled radiation,conduction and convection problem
 
Im trying to analyse heating of water using solar parabolic trough. Im using a 3D model which has a parabola volume for radiation mesh, then a pipe volume and a fluid volume. i use interface to couple these volumes. can you help me on which radiation model to use?? How to give solar heat flux boundary condition??? What all options to be used?
:confused:
