Embodiment Construction

[0075] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, several preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be described below.

[0076] First preferred embodiment of the present invention

[0077] This preferred embodiment is based on the use in each optical channel with the Figure 1a The optical system of the structure shown.

[0078] The mirror 1 in the solar heat collector is generally a double-sided mirror, and there is a layer of glass with a thickness of about 3mm to 5mm on the surface of the mirror. The mirror can be a plane mirror, a spherical mirror used in a power plant to concentrate solar energy on a point, or a cylindrical parabolic mirror to concentrate solar energy on a bushing. The mirror must have a very high reflectance relative to the solar spectrum.

[0079] The measurement of the reflection coefficient is realized through the following process: the light beam generated by the LED emitter 2 passes through the outer ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a portable reflectometer and to a method for characterising the collector mirrors used in solar power plants for the in-field characterisation of reflection coefficients. The equipment includes all of the components required for this measurement, such as a module to measure the reflection coefficient of the mirror, an electronic data acquisition and processing system, a system for processing data and controlling the equipment, a system for storing the data of interest, a user interface system, and a system allowing communication between the aforementioned systems and an outer casing. The equipment can be used to characterise the specular reflection coefficient of flat or curved mirrors of different thicknesses, without requiring adjustments to be made to the equipment, minimising the influence of diffuse reflection on the measurement.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the technology of optical measuring equipment or tools. [0002] In particular, it relates to portable devices for detecting the spectral properties and reflection coefficients of flat mirrors or mirrors with defined degrees of curvature, such as heliostat mirrors, Stirling mirrors, Fresnel mirrors (Fresnel), etc., the above mirrors are used on the collector to obtain solar heat. The device includes all components required for the measurement, including data processing and sending the data to a computer for storage. Background technique [0003] Among renewable resources, solar thermal energy harvesting technologies are of great economic and technological importance for domestic industries and industrial sectors. Solar thermal energy produces electricity using the traditional thermoelectric cycle, a method of heating fluids at high temperatures. These systems require maximizing the concentration of solar energy at an...
