Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011110415A1] A solar collection system configured for use with a solar thermal power plant is provided. The solar collection system is designed to facilitate capture of thermal energy of incident solar radiation by a heat transfer fluid (HTF) flowing therethrough and comprises a longitudinally extending concentrator designed to reflect at least a portion of the incident solar radiation toward a focus line thereof, a heat collecting element (HCE) coincident with the focus line and comprising a tube carrying the HTF, and a transparent enclosure surrounding the tube. The concentrator comprises a light rectifying arrangement configured to specularly reflect the incident solar radiation and increase the elevation angle thereof.
