Two axis tracking system for solar concentrators

Author

Listed:
  • Agarwal, A.K.

Abstract

A two axis tracking system is described for the focussing of sunlight in paraboloid-type solar reflectors used in solar thermal devices like solar cookers. This system consists of wormgear drives and four bar type kinematic linkages for effortless and accurate focussing of reflectors at low cost.
