On the optical performance of a spherical stationary reflector/tracking absorber solar collector
The effect of specific design characteristics of the SRTA collector are discussed, such as the absorber diameter, the absorber length and the optical error from the tracking mechanism. It is found that the reduction of the absorber’s length by 29.6% leads to the reduction of the optical efficiency b...
