Technical FAQs 4

What is a trough solar collector field?

A trough solar collector field comprises multiple parabolic trough-shaped mirrors in parallel rows aligned to enable these single-axis trough-shaped mirrors to track the sun from east to west during the day to ensure that the sun is continuously focused on the receiver pipes. Trough deployment database.

What is solar energy generating systems (SEGS)?

Solar Energy Generating Systems (SEGS) is the name of the world’s largest parabolic trough solar thermal electricity generation system, developed by Luz in southern California, USA. SEGS is the second largest solar thermal power plant in the world at 354 MW (surpassed by the 377MW Ivanpah Solar Power Tower system discussed in the next section).

What is a parabolic trough collector system?

Parabolic Trough Collector Systems Parabolic trough technology is the most widespread among utility-scale solar thermal plants. The potential of this type of concentrating collectors is very high and can provide output fluid temperatures in the range up to 500°C.

How does a solar energy system work?

Fluid is pumped through the absorber tubes that are connected in series and parallel. Some systems employ an insulated storage tank to enable power generation when the solar resource is either intermittent (due to something like cloud cover) or unavailable (typically during the early evening hours).
