Optical-geometric parameters of a linear Fresnel mirror with flat facets

Abstract

This paper studies linear Fresnel mirrors (LFMs) with flat facets. A model and a program for calculating the parameters and concentration of LFMs with flat facets have been developed. It is shown that LFMs can provide in increased concentration by up to 30 times at a number of facets of about 50 while ensuring the high uniformity of the concentrated radiation at the receiver.
