| 内容記述 | Cone optics procedures have been developed to treat optical systems employing multiple reflectors. The objective of the procedures is to develop efficient techniques to treat multiple reflections of cones when the secondary reflecting surface is curved - in fact, curved differently in different directions. The particular optical system under consideration is the Cassegrainian Concentrator System - a system consisting of a paraboloidal primary reflector and a confocal hyperboloidal secondary reflector. Multiple reflection cone optics methodology as well as preliminary results for the flux distributions and intercept factors based on it are presented in this paper. It is shown that neglecting local curvature effects of the secondary reflector, i.e. even in the differential solid angle within the sun's cone, may overestimate the peak of the flux distribution at the receiver aperture by a factor of two or more. |
