4. SOLAR ENERGY COLLECTOR Solar energy collector is a device which absorbs the incoming solar radiation, converts it into heat, and transfers this heat to a fluid (usually air, water, or oil) flowing through the collector. The solar energy thus collected is carried from the circulating fluid either directly to the hot water or space conditioning equipment, or to a

There are four main kinds: parabolic trough collectors, power tower receivers, parabolic dish collectors, and Fresnel lens collectors. Each has its own way of concentrating sunlight.
These collectors consist of curved mirrors that concentrate sunlight onto a pipe filled with fluid. As the fluid heats up, it generates steam that powers a turbine to produce electricity, making it a popular choice for large-scale solar power plants.
A parabolic trough solar collector can be used as a concentrating photovoltaic (PV) system. In this type of system, concentrated sunlight is used to generate electrical power. The collector consists of a parabolic reflector that focuses the sun's energy onto a small area. This focused energy is then used to generate electrical power using PV cells.
