  2. Parabolic trough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_trough

    A parabolic trough is made of a number of solar collector modules (SCM) fixed together to move as one solar collector assembly (SCA). A SCM could have a length up to 15 metres (49 ft 3 in) or more. About a dozen or more of SCM make each SCA up to 200 metres (656 ft 2 in) length. Each SCA is an independently-tracking parabolic trough. [9]

  3. Solar thermal collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_collector

    The term "solar collector" commonly refers to a device for solar hot water heating, but may refer to large power generating installations such as solar parabolic troughs and solar towers or non-water heating devices such as solar cookers or solar air heaters. [1] Solar thermal collectors are either non-concentrating or concentrating.

  4. Solar furnace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_furnace

    The solar furnace at Odeillo in the Pyrénées-Orientales in France can reach temperatures of 3,500 °C (6,330 °F). A solar furnace is a structure that uses concentrated solar power to produce high temperatures, usually for industry. Parabolic mirrors or heliostats concentrate light onto a focal point.

  5. Solar thermal energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy

    A cost/performance comparison between power tower and parabolic trough concentrators was made by the NREL which estimated that by 2020 electricity could be produced from power towers for 5.47 ¢/kWh and for 6.21 ¢/kWh from parabolic troughs. The capacity factor for power towers was estimated to be 72.9% and 56.2% for parabolic troughs. [46]

  7. Solar-powered Stirling engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-powered_Stirling_engine

    NASA patented a type of solar-powered Stirling engine on August 3, 1976. It used solar energy to pump water from a river, lake, or stream. [1] The purpose of this apparatus is to “provide a low-cost, low-technology pump having particular utility in irrigation systems employed in underdeveloped arid regions of the earth…[using] the basic principles of the Stirling heat engine“.

  8. Solar water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_heating

    An advertisement for a Solar Water Heater dating to 1902 Frank Shuman's sunengine on the March 1916 cover of Hugo Gernsback's The Electrical Experimenter. Records of solar collectors in the United States date to before 1900, [5] involving a black-painted tank mounted on a roof. In 1896 Clarence Kemp of Baltimore enclosed a tank in a wooden box ...

  9. Solar-powered pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-powered_pump

    A windpump replaced by a solar-powered pump at a water hole in the Augrabies Falls National Park. [Notes 1] This solar water pump up to 3.7 kW is useful for farmers.Solar-powered pumps run on electricity generated by photovoltaic (PV) panels or the radiated thermal energy available from collected sunlight as opposed to grid electricity- or diesel-run water pumps.
