Design and Optical Performance Evaluation of the Three-Dimensional Solar Concentrators with Multiple Compound Parabolic Profiles and Elliptical and Rectangular Receiver Shapes

Design and Optical Performance Evaluation of the Three-Dimensional Solar Concentrators with Multiple Compound Parabolic Profiles and Elliptical and Rectangular Receiver Shapes

The compound parabolic concentrator (CPC) is a core technology in the field of solar concentration. Nevertheless, it only has one degree of freedom in the choice of its half-acceptance angle. In this study, extending the idea of the three-dimensional CPC, a design method for new kinds of concentrato...
