Abstract |
to facilitate rapid diffusion and widespread use of solar energy, the systems should also be easy to install, operate and maintain. In order to improve the performance of solar concentrator, different types of reflectors were evaluated with respect to their optical and energy conversion efficiency. To assure good performance and long technical lifetime of a concentrating system, the solar reflectance of the reflectors must be high and long term stable. Therefore, different types of reflector materials and absorbing materials were analyzed in this work; also the optical properties and degradation of the reflecting surfaces were assessed.. The shift of focus was motivated by the need to assess long term system performance and possibilities of optimizing the optical efficiency or reducing costs by using new types of reflector materials and absorbing materials. |
