Abstract:This study aims to identify the factors enhancing the performance of Scheffler parabolic solar concentrators as part of the design of a solar kiln for firing ceramic materials, with a particular emphasis on the crucial role of the concentrator’s concentration factor in reaching the necessary sintering temperature of around 1000 °C. This challenge is addressed through a design methodology employing circular crossbars and rectangular mirrors, simplifying fabrication. The study further involves assessing and comp… Show more
