Performance of a two-stage solar concentrator
The geometrical concentration characteristics of a two-stage system employing a composite parabolic trough as a primary--and a compound parabolic concentrator as a secondary--concentrator are discussed. The relative merits of such a two-stage system over a single-stage CPT are brought out from simple thermal performance considerations.
