What is Parabolic trough?
A '''parabolic trough''' is similar to a [[solar panel]] tower, because it has [[parabolic mirror]]s that collect large amounts of heat which is reflected on water-filled pipes . The water is heated until it turns into [[steam]], rotating a [[turbine]] using a large steam [[piston]]. The rotating turbine produces [[electricity]], which is then transferred by [[transformer]], before being converted DC to AC and transferred by current lines. == Related pages == * [[Solar panel]] [[Category:Energy]]
