This is a new era where the world's energy consumption is so high and is likely to increase over 60% of current consumption by the year 2030. Therefore, renewable energy should be used most frequently. The most preferred alternative to fossil fuels is solar energy but converting solar energy into usable form is the most challenging part. The conversion to thermal energy is the one option. In the area of solar thermal power generation, a solar parabolic trough (SPT) collector is an effective method. Also, the use of passive methods to enhance the thermal performance of these parabolic trough receivers is currently the researcher's interest This review study is focused on different types of geometrical modification (Artificial roughness) used to enhance the thermal performance of SPT receivers. Based on the extensive study it has been found that conical strip insert is a very broad field for research as it can enhance the thermal performance up to 5–10 times. Also there are parameters associated with the conical strips like shape, pitch, angle of twist, slant angle, geometry angle, etc. which can contribute to better performance when used in SPT receiver.
