Solar energy collectors are crucial for converting solar radiation into usable forms like heat or electricity. There are two main types of collectors: non-concentration and concentrating collectors. In non-concentration collectors, the collector area and absorber area are the same.
The selection of the solar collector depends on the type of application where each one requires certain range of outlet temperature. Concentrated type of STC; mainly parabolic trough and linear Fresnel are the most commonly utilized types in PVT systems. The electrical efficiency is negligibly affected by the type of the STC. 3.3.
