Evaluation of Surface Slope Irregularity in Linear Parabolic Solar Collectors

Evaluation of Surface Slope Irregularity in Linear Parabolic Solar Collectors

The paper describes amethodology, very simple in its application, for measuring surface irregularities of linear parabolic collectors. This technique was principally developed to be applied in cases where it is difficult to use cumbersome instruments and to facilitate logistic management. The instruments to be employed are a digital camera and a grating. If the reflector surface is defective, t...

Evaluation of solar-chimney power plants with multiple-angle collectors

Solar chimney power plants are plants based on solar thermal power including three parts of collector, chimney and turbine, which is able to produce electrical energy. One of the effective parameters in increasing the power production is the collector angles versus horizon. In the present study, a numerical analysis of a solar chimney power plant for different angles of the collector (divergent...
