Dynamic test model for the transient thermal performance of parabolic trough solar collectors

•Dynamic model offers convenient thermal tests of parabolic trough solar collectors.•The model is suitable for the on-site long collector’s row in realistic conditions.•The outlet temperature, output energy and thermal efficiency are predicted.•Very small differences show that this model is reliable...
