Focusing Type Concentrators Various types of focusing type concentrators are : Parabolic trough reflector. Mirror strip reflector. Fresnel lens collector. Paraboloid dish collector. 1. Parabolic Trough Reflector : This type is line focusing type collector. The cross-section of a parabolic through reflector is shown in Figure A. In this type of collector, the solar radiations … Read more
Concentrating Type Collectors Concentrating type of collectors are also known as focusing collectors. These type of collectors are used when the temperatures higher than 100° C are required. Therefore in these collectors, it is necessary to concentrate and collect the high intensity of solar radiations on the absorber surface. The collector system comprises of a … Read more
Types of Solar Concentrating Collectors The concentrating type of collectors can be broadly classified into following two categories 1. Focusing type or concentrating type collectors : In these type of collectors, the optical system focuses the solar radiations on to the absorber. These are further classified as : (a) Line focusing type concentrators. (b) Point … Read more
