Influences of Optical Factors on the Performance of the Solar Furnace

In this paper, an optical structure design for a solar furnace is described. Based on this configuration, Monte Carlo ray tracing simulations are carried out to analyze the influences of four optical factors on the concentrated solar heat flux distribution. According to the practical mirror shape ad...
