AI Customer ServiceNon-concentrating solar collectors The non-concentrating or stationary solar collectors comprise mainly four categories: (1) flat plate collector (FPC) which includes a glass cover, absorber plate in thermal contact with a heat transfer fluid (HTF) flowing through a channel, usually copper tube, as depicted in Fig. 1.1A.
Concentrating and non-concentrating hybrid solar collectors have drawn increasing interest thanks to their multiple advantages compared to the conventional counterparts, including the higher efficiency and dual production of thermal and electrical energies, alleviating energy security and environmental concerns.
The non-concentrating hybrid technology, known as photovoltaic thermal (PVT) collector, is composed of a PV panel and a fluid flow channel to absorb the unexploited solar energy lost as waste heat. This technology has the advantage of dual energy production and an increased efficiency of PV cells compared to the PV panels.
The non-concentrated solar thermal energy systems are used for low-temperature applications such as household heating applications and industrial process heating, whereas the concentrated solar thermal energy systems are used for high-temperature applications such as power generation and industrial process heating applications.
Solar thermal power generation systems also known as Solar Thermal Electricity (STE) generating systems are emerging renewable energy technologies and can be developed as viable option for electricity generation in future.
Concentrating solar collectors are used to produce medium- or high-temperature process heat above 100°C/212°F, to run thermal cooling machines, or to produce electricity by using steam generators.
