Title: Line focus concentrating collector for Copper Mountain Ski Resort, Colorado (Engineering Materials)

Miscellaneous ·
OSTI ID:5937569

The present invention is a device which develops an accurate line focus concentrating collector by flexural bending of thin reflective materials. This method avoids the need for expensive tooling and support frame fabrication. The technical work conducted during this quarter included completion of designs for the prototype system for the Copper Mountain Ski Resort in Colorado. Evaluation of alternate tracking and drive systems and final design of the support system. These drawings accompany DOE/CS/15072--T4.
