Electrical Engineering | A concentrating collector is a solar collector which uses reflectors, lenses or other optical elements to concentrate the radiant energy passing through the aperture onto an absorber of which the surface area is smaller than the aperture area. Source: European Union. (references) |
| Solar collectors may be divided into concentrating collectors and flat plate collectors. Concentrating collectors can reach higher temperatures and in the main can absorb only direct solar radiation. Source: European Union. (references) | |
