Conception and realization of a parabolic dish

Abstract

This research paper deals with the development of clean energy production technologies. Due to the current energies, and environmental context (oil prices, pollution, global warming, etc.), the uses of solar energy becomes a new perspective. The main purpose of this topic is to build a parabolic dish mirror to concentrate solar radiation. This study will focus on an experiment to convert solar energy into thermal energy using a solar concentrator. A solar tracking system is deployed to orient the concentrator in two directions of rotation designed according to a geographical parameter (the study area). Finally, a numerical simulation of a theoretical model is exploited in order to make it possible to calculate the degree of radiation at the level of the reflector. This experimental work shows the efficiency of the proposed contribution.
