研究目的
Investigating the use of nonimaging and imaging concentrators to increase energy delivery temperatures by reducing heat loss areas in solar collectors.
研究成果
Concentrating collectors, through the use of nonimaging and imaging concentrators, can significantly increase energy delivery temperatures by reducing heat loss areas. However, their performance is highly dependent on precise optical quality, orientation, and maintenance. The paper emphasizes the trade-offs between concentration ratios, temperature delivery, and system costs.
研究不足
The technical constraints include the need for precise orientation and tracking of the sun, maintenance to retain optical system quality, and the impact of environmental factors like dirt and weather. Application constraints involve the higher costs and complexity of concentrating collectors compared to flat-plate collectors.
