Developing and testing solar collectors

Progress in Agricultural Engineering Sciences, 2009
A relatively new trend is the development of concentrator-type solar collectors and cells for the use in micro-concentrators. The geometry of these concentrators is simple, the reflexion surfaces or mirrors are usually flat-plate surfaces. The relations of radiation in the inner spaces of these collectors are complicated.

Optimized Solar Collector

ASME 2009 3rd International Conference on Energy Sustainability, Volume 2, 2009
Fundamental to the design of solar trough collectors is that a suitable structure must be provided for positioning and support of mirrors, as well as pipes for transporting heat transfer fluids. These elements and related hardware are basic to the level of investment necessary for fabrication of collectors.

Solar collector overheating protection

Solar Energy, 2009
Prismatic structures in a thermal solar collector are used as overheating protection. Such structures reflect incoming light efficiently back whenever less thermal power is extracted from the solar collector. Maximum thermal power is generated when the prismatic structure is surrounded by a switching fluid with an index of refraction comparable to that

Solar Divergence Collimators for Collector Tests

Advances in Science and Technology, 2010
The use of solar divergence collimators is the key for reliable optical tests that reproduce the on-field collector operating conditions. Aiming to test small (<80 mm diameter/diagonal) and large concentrators (80-240 mm diameter/diagonal range), the collimator geometry should be evaluated because of some optical errors introduced by the need of ...

High Concentration Solar Collectors

2012
Solar thermal concentrated power is an emerging technology that provides clean electricity for the growing energy market. To the solar thermal concentrated power plant systems belong the parabolic trough, the Fresnel collector, the solar dish, and the central receiver system.

Testing of solar collectors

Solar Energy, 1978
Abstract In order that tests on different solar collectors conducted at different times shall be comparable, it is necessary that the test define the governing equation of the collector. This involves measurements at different solar intensities, different operating temperatures and different flow rates.
