<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am simulating a novel solar Fresnel collector that has double axis tracking features. I am using for that the linear Fresnel (type 1288). I am trying to find a way to enable double tracking for this type. Is it possible to consider single
tracking or double tracking for this type?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">One of the solutions I tried is setting the collectors azimuth equal to 90 degrees plus the sun’s azimuthal angle and it seems to improve the performance.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any thoughts will be really helpful<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance,<o:p></o:p></p>
