The authors regret that incorrect results have been published in two figures of this article due to erroneous data of the thermal effects of the wind for the case of the shallow trough at a 01 pitch angle. The average Nusselt number on the receiver surface in Fig. 14 and the velocity field in Fig. 15a and b have been revised and are shown below in the corrected form. Additionally, run times of the simulations

Fig. 15. Velocity magnitude at the respective angles of highest heat loss for the three configurations. The case of a pitch angle of 0 1 shows the higher air speed around the receiver in (a) and (b) for the shallow trough compared with (c) and (d) the medium trough at 5 1 pitch, and (e) and (f) the deep trough at 10 1 pitch.

have been extended to give better averaging, which led to minor adjustments of some data points in Fig. 14. With this the anomalous data point for the deep trough at 751 pitch angle was shown to be in line with the overall trend. The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.
