Abstract
► A numerical aerodynamic and heat transfer model based on LES modelling of PTC is proposed. ► The numerical model is verified on a circular cylinder in a cross-flow. ► The instantaneous and time-averaged flows are studied for an Eurotrough solar collector. ► A comparative study of the heat transfer coefficients around the heat collector element is carried out.
