Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTracking Error Analysis of a Rotation-Elevation Mode HeliostatOmar Aliman, Ismail Daut, Muzamir Isa, Mohd Rafi AdzmanFor the past few years, great efforts have been done in improving the tracking accuracy of a newly proposed rotation-elevation tracking mode heliostat. A special simulation program has been developed to systematically analyze the image movement and to find out the error of the parameters. In the simulation program, ray-tracing method was applied to work out the central point position … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,251 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmissivity of Triangular Surfaces Determined by Differential Method: From Homogenization to Validity Limit of Geometrical OpticsTaoufik Ghabara, Faouzi Ghmari, M. S. SifaouiGeometric optics approximation for emissivity from triangular surfaces was compared with exact scattering predictions from electromagnetic theory. Rigorous electromagnetic scattering theory was numerically formulated based on the differential method. We have used a numerical simulation of the emissivity of gold and tungsten for a wavelength equal 0.55 micron to explore the validity of the geometric optics. Surface parameter domains for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,142 accessesView PDFCite
