Focal length of trough solar collector

Zhu et al. (2017) done experiment on a solar air collector of the vacuum tube in nature dependent on a micro heat pipe array (MHPA). They proposed that 0.77 kg stand-ard coal can be saved on an average day and reduce the pol-lutant using this setup. Abdulhamed et al. (2018) reviewed the solar parabolic trough collector and they said that the
