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

FIELD: solar engineering; heat and power generation using solar energy. SUBSTANCE: module has commutated photoelectric converters 1, mirror reflector 2 mounted on one side of converters 1, and transparent (glass or plastic) guard 3 on their opposite side which forms dihedral acute angle with plane of mirror reflector 2; β angle of incidence of sun rays on transparent guard 3 and dihedral angle α between transparent guard 3 and mirror reflector 2 are interrelated by equation β+2ϕ = ψ₁, where ψ₁ = 80 to 90 deg. EFFECT: improved energy concentration efficiency, reduced mass and cost of module. 4 cl, 5 dwg
