Analytical research of solar concentrators with an absorbing triangular surface for marine and coastal energy systems

The constructions of effective solar power concentrators directed at receiving electric power on the small and large vessels and coastal energy systems are considered. These constructions have flat mirror reflecting surfaces, capable of single and double reflection of solar energy, and adapting triangular surfaces. Rated equations for constructive characteristics of concentrators and equations for increased efficiency of incident radiation power at the photoelectric cell are given. The calculated optogram’s analysis of optical concentration factor indicates the most effective construction for triangular solar concentrators turned top down and placed at the focus of the concentrators.
