Continuous Tracking of Heliostats

Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 2003
Tracking motions in current heliostats are usually performed in discrete steps, even though the motion of the sun is continuous. Aiming errors due to the discrete steps are often about 1 mrad or more. A significant reduction of tracking error by smooth continuous tracking is presented.

Complete Solution of Sun Tracking for Heliostat

Communications in Theoretical Physics, 2006
A general solution of sun tracking for an arbitrarily oriented heliostat towards an arbitrarily located target on the earth is published. With the most general form of solar tracking formulae, it is seen that the used azimuth-elevation, spinning-elevation tracking formulae etc. are the special cases of it.

Tracking Speed Analysis for Heliostat Using Spinning-Elevation Tracking Mode

Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 2009
This paper discusses the tracking speed for different types of sun tracking algorithms, particularly the latitude-oriented spinning-elevation tracking mode in the solar energy application. It is found that the tracking speed of the spinning axis of a latitude-oriented type of heliostat varies drastically during solar noon around days of equinox.
