Tracking-Integrated Optics: Applications in Solar Concentration

Brian Wheelwright, Roger Angel, and Blake Coughenour

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Tracking-integrated optical designs for solar concentration offer an alternative to conventional dual-axis tracking. Single-axis solar module tracking is supplemented by small-distance motion of optical elements, giving effective 2D tracking.
