Abstract

The random surface error, tracking error, position error and shadow of receiver of parabolic dish concentrators are analysed by using the ray tracing and the Monte-Carlo method. Several examples are given. The analysis is help to optimizing the system efficiency and measuring the flux density distribution. © 2006 IOP Publishing Ltd.
