SOLAR PHOTOELECTRIC MODULE WITH CONCENTRATOR Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: solar power engineering. SUBSTANCE: photoelectric module has prism 1 of full internal reflection. Side edges 2 of prism reflect radiation, and photoelectric transducer 4 is installed at radiation output 3. Prism is positioned in outlet hole 5 of parabolic cylindrical phokon. Focuses of parabolic cylindrical reflecting surfaces F₁ and F₂ are located on radiation input surface of prism 1 inside projection of prism smaller base on larger base. Prism width d equals that of phokon outlet hole 5. Phokon aperture angle β is equal to angle of radiation input into prism at maximum deflection of sun from normal. EFFECT: higher degree of solar radiation concentration. 3 dwg
