Abstract
A solar paraboloid concentrator was designed and developed for paraffin wax melting having 1.32 m2 aperture area and 0.25 m focal length. The performance of the system was evaluated in terms of optical efficiency factor (F′no) and overall heat loss factor (F′UL) by sensible water heating and cooling tests, respectively. The values of the optical efficiency factor (F′no) and overall heat loss factor (F′UL) were found to be 0.2125 and 39.46 W/m2 K, respectively.
