Stationary Solar Concentrator delivering beyond the étendue law with Homogeneous Illumination

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Our novel stationary solar concentrator, which relies on a new self-adaptive optical valve, theoretically allows a concentration up to 9.5 suns, which is 4.5× higher than the limit of the étendue law, and provides perfect illumination homogeneity.
