Improvement of the performance of parabolic trough solar concentrator using freeform optics and CPV/T design
The developmental tendency of parabolic trough collector (PTC) is larger aperture area for energy harvest and novel optical design for higher solar concentration. Larger aperture faces a higher demand in tracking accuracy and lower tolerances with respect to wind loads, quality of mirrors, control,...
