CPC heat mirror for 20 vacuum tube solar collectors, stainless steel, curved heat mirror

Wavy heat sink

Using the CPC mirror on the same given surface, we increase the radiation heat collecting surface behind the tubes by adjusting the semi-cylindrical mirrors exactly so that the tubes are at the focal point. This is the secret of the higher heat output compared to a heat pipe with the same surface area. In this way, we can collect more heat output from the same surface and approx. The solar collector will be 10% more efficient.

CPC thermal mirror

A thermal mirror is a device that can focus sunlight and create high-temperature radiation using concentrated solar energy. Thermal mirrors come in a variety of shapes and sizes, but generally consist of a reflective surface that reflects sunlight to a central point or channel.

The most common type of thermal mirror is the parabolic mirror. These mirrors are parabolic in shape and focus sunlight at the focal point of the mirror. A high temperature can be achieved at the focal point, which is suitable for various uses, for example:

1. Solar energy conversion: Focused heat can be used to heat water or generate steam, which can be used with heat engines or steam turbines to generate electricity.

2. Support for solar collectors: Thermal mirrors can be used to heat traditional flat solar collectors for greater efficiency, increasing the temperature achieved in hot water production or heating.

3. Heat flow control: A concentrated heat mirror can help control heat flow in industrial processes or cooling heat-sensitive equipment.

Thermal mirrors have many advantages, especially in areas where there is a lot of sunshine and energy needs are significant.

It is important to mention that thermal mirrors can be of different sizes and efficiency, and the specific purpose of use determines the choice of the right type. Technology is constantly evolving, and new innovations may enable even more efficient use of solar energy in the future.
