India has huge potential for making clean power through Renewable Energy Sources (RES) to be specific Hydro, Wind and Solar. This potential has been fittingly observed and shows India's understanding for reducing carbon impression as a making country. The excitement for significance is making very much arranged in the entire world. The Conventional vitality sources like coal and oil are restricted. Viable power source assets will acknowledge an essential part later on. India is sorted out in splendid belt India is given enormous sun orchestrated significance potential. Association of India had actuated Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) in 2009. The Indian Government hope to impel clean importance pushed Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) on eleventh January 2010, which is one of the eight missions under National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC-2008). This mission dreams to introduce 22,000 MW through framework related and off system control plants. The audit in light of unbounded point of convergence of sun arranged essentialness supply has been exhibited. The paper has been clear up the accessibility, current status, frameworks, perspectives, obliged time philosophies, accomplishments and future capacity of sunbased vitality choice in India.

Pidaparthi and Prasad [10], demonstrated the development and installation of a solar thermal parabolic trough field of 3 MW with the help of Abengoa as shown in Fig 6 . The first one of its kind parabolic trough power plant in India was erected with the HTF used as Therminol VP-1 having a temperature range of 285 -673 Kelvin. Controllers were installed in the plant to track the sun's real-time position for optimizing the energy absorption with no release of CO2 into the atmosphere.…”

Solar energy is the most affordable source of energy. Parabolic trough systems are used to concentrate and extract heat, therefore it’s very significant to analyse its performance in terms of energy and exergy. Exergy based analysis of the system ensures the eradication of losses, resulting in the yield of energy of the highest quality. In this paper, an investigation has been carried out using numerical simulation with an objective of analysis of Parabolic Trough Collectors on the basis of energy and exergy. Detailed second law analysis has been performed by varying the system and operating parameters through computer simulation. Exergy output has been determined by analysing the effect of major system parameters, namely, mirror reflectivity, glass transmissivity, absorptivity, the diameter of glass envelop, and the receiver. The operating parameters considered in the investigation are insolation and temperature rise parameters. The extensive investigation of the parabolic trough of a concentrated solar power plant for various design parameters in the range of operating parameters reveals that it is beneficial to operate the system at higher temperature as opposed to the preference of the operating system at lower temperature from purely thermal considerations.

CSP technology is grooving up with various applications and different devices due to high thermal efficiency. Parabolic trough collector attracts researchers' due to its versatility. Many researchers were working on designing trough to improve the efficiency of the collector. As per the literature serve carried out most of them are working on high-temperature applications. Our aim is to design a novel parabolic trough collector which is useful in low-temperature applications like domestic water heating. This paper discusses detailed drawing and dimensions of PTC which is useful to researchers. The main advantage of this design is easy assembly and maintenance. Keywords: parabolic trough collector (PTC), heat transfer fluid (HTF), receiver, collector, solar thermal I. INTRODUCTION Solar thermal is the fast-growing technology now a day due to research being done to explore its applicability in different fields [1,2,3,20,24] and to enhance its thermal efficiency [4,21,22,25,28,30,32,38]. CSP technology is the most effective part of solar thermal with various applications and different devices [2,24]. Parabolic trough collector (PTC) attracts researchers' due to its versatility in applications resulting in a large number of reports on designing trough to improve the collector efficiency for hightemperature applications and testing [9,10,15,17,30,31,34,36]. PTC is line type concentrator which is designed based on the parabola. Normally it is available with a tracking system to improve the efficiency and effectiveness. Maximum temperature achieved by PTC is reported to be 520 °C by using molten salt as a Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) [12]. Many researchers are working on PTC and reported different designs [1,3,5,15,18,27]; some of them are working on various applications of PTC [6,8,11,16,19,23,26,33,35,37]. The main area of research focuses on improvement in efficiency [7,12,16,18,21], the effect of the receiver and reflective material [13,14,27,32,35,37,38], heat transfer fluids and storage [4,12,25,29]. However, the Parabolic trough collector can be a very useful tool to harvest the solar energy for domestic applications, work done in this field is very less. In this paper, we present a novel design of a parabolic trough collector useful for the domestic heating applications.
