Abstract

This work performs an optical analysis of an artisanal system of Linear Fresnel concentrates developed by the Research Group in energy, automation and control systems of the Technological Units of Santander. For this, the numerical simulation methodology was applied by means of the Engineering Equation Solver software. The analysis carried out found that the angle of incidence Theta has a direct relationship with the optical performance of the system, affecting it when the angular inclination is not correct. Additionally, the system increases its performance when the speed and flow of the heat transfer fluid decrease. Finally, the evaluation made to the device despite having a percentage difference with the performance of the real device, serves as a reference to predict the behavior of the system and identify the critical operating characteristics that affect it.
