Fresnel collector
INDUSTRIAL SOLAR - FRESNEL COLLECTOR
Linear Fresnel solar collector Principle:
• Direct irradiation hits the reflective surface of the mirrors which is slightly bended in order to concentrate the reflected sunrays
• All mirrors are in a different angle as the relative position (sun – mirror – absorber tube) is different.
• The reflected sunrays hit the absorber tube. The radiation missing the absorber tube hits the secondary reflector which again concentrates the radiation on the absorber tube.absorber tube.
• The absorber tube consists of an inner stainless steel absorber pipe and an out evacuated glass envelope. The vacuum reduces the heat losses from the absorber pipe.
• A heat transfer fluid is circulated through, and heated within the absorber tube. The fluid transports the heat to a process where it transfers the heat via heat exchangers. Later it is re-circulated through the absorber tube.
• The control system determines the exact mirror position for each mirror based on the exact location, date and time. Sensors double check the position and can induce recalibration.
INDUSTRIAL SOLAR - FRESNEL COLLECTOR
• Industry is a major energy consumer accounting for around 30% of total final energy demand. Within the total industrial energy demand process heat has the major share with around 67%. A major part, around 57% of total process heat demand, is in a medium temperature range (<400°C) and can be provided with Industrial Solar Fresnel Collector technology.
• Significant share of the heat consumed in the industrial sector is in the low and medium temperature range i.e. below 100°C and below 400°C respectively.
• PROCESS HEAT is the most important form of energy used in industrial processes. It is commonly applied via heat exchangers from a distribution grid. Steam is the dominant heat carrier in industry (e.g. for food and textiles). Industrial Solar´s Fresnel collector can generate saturated or applied via heat exchangers from a distribution grid. Steam is the dominant heat carrier in industry (e.g. for food and textiles). Industrial Solar´s Fresnel collector can generate saturated or superheated steam directly. Alternatively, thermal oil or pressurized water can be used as the heat transfer fluids which are both ideally suited to integrate into solar process heat solutions.
• COOLING is the second most critical production factor in industrial processes; such as for storing perishable goods, cooling in production processes and cooling the manufacturing equipment itself. In addition, cooling is becoming increasingly important for air-conditioning office buildings, shopping malls, hospitals and many other facilities. Solar cooling solutions convert solar thermal energy directly into cooling power by means of thermally driven chillers.
• Regions with DNIs (Direct Normal Irradiation) above 1,500 kWh / (m2 a) are best suited for solar process heat applications based on Industrial Solar‘s Fresnel collector technology.
Based on Industrial Solar‘s innovative Fresnel collector, decentralized renewable process heat can be
generated for various industrial applications and requirements with temperatures of up to 400 °C.

• Different heat transfer fluids can be used like pressurized water or thermal oil, or high temperatureglycol but it is also possible to directly generate or even superheat steam.
Thermal performance characteristics
• Due to the vacuum absorber, thermal performance is independent of wind speed.
• Maximum operating temperature: 400°C
• Thermal Output under reference conditions: 12.3 KW per standard module
• 562 W/m2) in terms of primary reflector aperture area (Under reference conditions)
• 375 W/m2 in terms of installation area usage (under reference conditions)
Matches industrial requirements:
• Primary mirrors are made of flat glass for longer durability and reflectivity
• Individually tracked mirror rows ensure precise power and temperature control
• High quality vacuum absorber tubes guarantees optimal thermal efficiency
• High system stability due to reliable industrial control technology
Easy rooftop installation:
• Low wind load and good weight spread
• No heavy machinery required for installation
• No need for north-south alignment
• High ground-usage factor saves valuable ground area
ADVANTAGES
• High ground-usage factor saves valuable ground area
• Reduced cooling demand of building due to shade produced by collector on roof
High pressure steam:
• Stationary absorber tubes ensure consistent steam quality
• Absorber tube diameter of 70mm enables high flow rates with minimal pressure loss
• No twisting of flexible connections
Low operational & maintenance costs:
• Mirrors can be cleaned automatically with almost no water consumption
• Individual mirror rows are easy to access
• Components are designed for long life-time and need almost no maintenance (mirrors/tubes/drives)
Control:
• Accurate temperature control and no stagnation or overheating
High temperatures
• The Fresnel-Collector can achieve temperatures of up to 400°C when compared to
Flat plate collectors, Vacuum Tube collectors and Non-concentrating solar thermal
collectors
Integration at system level
• As the Fresnel-collector provides high temperatures it can, not only be used for
Advantages:
In comparison to: Flat plate collectors (FPC), Vacuum Tube collectors (VTC)
• As the Fresnel-collector provides high temperatures it can, not only be used for
preheating but also operate parallel to a conventional boiler.
No overheating
• The Industrial Solar Fresnel collector is equipped with thermometers which
automatically defocus the mirrors if a certain temperature limit is exceeded.
Low weight and wind load
• Low weight and wind load
The collector weighs only around 30kg/m². In addition, the wind loads are much lower as the
main surface is horizontal.
• Ground-space efficiency
As different modules do not shade each other they can be aligned closely, making fuel use of
available space
• Structural advantages
Compared to the parabolic trough collector the absorber tube is fixed above the mirrors.
Advantages:
In comparison to: Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC)
Compared to the parabolic trough collector the absorber tube is fixed above the mirrors.
Thus, no flexible, high-pressure, high-temperature joints have to be used
• Direct-steam generation
In linear Fresnel collectors concentrated sunlight hits the absorber tube only from below. This
is much better for direct steam generation due to a better heat transfer. Moreover, thermal
stresses on the absorber tube are reduced.
• Cleaning / operation & maintenance
Due to the flat and horizontally aligned mirrors the collector field can easily be accessed and
cleaned. The water demand for cleaning is much lower as for parabolic trough collectors. For
large collector fields also cleaning robots can be used.

energy
Thus Solar Cooling can achieve:
• Less CO2 emission per unit cold
• Less blackouts as reduced electricity demand reduces the peak demand
• Less investment in the grid due to reduced peak demands
3. Solar thermal Desalination
• Multi-effect desalination (MED), can be powered by heat
• Salty water is heated and evaporated thereby water is separated from the brine.
4. Poly generation:
• When various processes / applications are fed by the same solar system it is called
Polygeneration. (E.g. Power + Heat)
5. Hybrid Systems
• As storing energy is very expensive it is currently not feasible to build stand-alone
systems. Thus, solar systems are most of the time hybrid systems in combination

systems. Thus, solar systems are most of the time hybrid systems in combination
with an alternative energy supply (e.g. fossil). The solar share reduces the fuel
demand by up to 70% depending on the load profile
6. Integration of Solar Process Heat:
There are three different ways to integrate solar process heat in industrial facilities.
• Pre-heating of boiler feed water
• Steam generation and integration in distribution network
• Direct feeding of process
