摘要
We describe the fabrication, testing and application of the Integrated Compound Parabolic Concentrator (ICPC) to solar cooling. The cooling technology is a double effect absorption cycle chiller operating at 165 degrees C. The design parameters are optimized for this temperature range. The optical and mechanical design of the solar collector is chosen for compatability with mass production. A project to employ approximately 350 of these collector tubes to drive a 20 ton commercial double effect chiller on an office building in Sacramento CA has started. We expect the system to be operational this year.
