This article proposes a numerical analysis for performance improvement of the stack, which represents a crucial element on the solar-powered thermoacoustic refrigerator. The stack is considered as a saturated parallelepiped homogeneous porous media. Numerical simulation of the flow and the heat transfer in the thermoacoustic refrigerator is carried out. The physical flow is governed by the modified Darcy–Brinkmann–Forchheimer model. The governing equations are solved numerically using the lattice Boltzmann method. Furthermore, the local thermal equilibrium assumption is applied to examine heat transfer. Particular attention is paid a new form of the lattice Boltzmann equation system describing the flow and the heat transfer in porous media and fluid regions. The effects of several parameters characterizing the thermal behaviour in the porous medium are studied. The parametric results lead to the optimization of the porous media form. The presence of the viscous dissipation term in the heat transfer formulation within the thermoacoustic system is particularly highlighted, due to its significant effects introduced by the Eckert number.

The potential of renewable energy should be investigated. Renewable energy is the energy from natural and unnatural available forms including wind, biomass, solar, and waste heat energy generated through various human activities. Solar energy is an available and clean form of renewable energy used as an alternative to fossil fuel in generating energy. However, the maximum extraction of thermal energy from the sun is most challenging. This study focuses on energy generation using the parabolic trough collector (PTC). This review contains geometrical analysis including the thermal approach of the PTC model, heat transfer, and method of enhancing thermal efficiency on the PTC receiver. So to identify the performance analysis, thermal efficiency, and applications of the solar-powered PTC and the history of PTC evolution. The PTC applications include desalination process, air heating system, power plants, refrigeration, and industrial heating purposes.
