Scientific paper

The use of spherical solar receptors in a simply constructed device and in the PERICLES project is examined. (PERICLES is an acronym derived from the French words for energy production in isolated regions by limited concentration of solar energy.) The optimum position, form, and size of a boiler associated with a spherical solar receptor is determined for an installation with a 200-400 kW peak. The efficiencies of spherical solar receptors of different types or locations are surveyed, and it is thought an exit temperature of 350 C can be obtained by use of this design.
