It includes theoretical analyses, computational tools and mathematical formulae to facilitate the development, design, construction and application of these systems. In addition, the book presents a concise yet thorough treatment of the theory behind these systems, and provides useful and efficient calculation procedures that can be used to model and develop their practical applications. Along with the theoretical analyses provided in the book, the physical background is explained using mathematical formulae, illustrations, graphs and tables. Methods are presented for solving the non-linear mathematical systems that describe a significant variety of cases. In addition, MATLAB codes are supplied (both in the text and online). Consequently, readers interested in applying the methodology presented here will have all the source codes at hand, allowing them to easily expand on them by introducing appropriate modifications for their respective design configuration. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to engineers and researchers, who can use their scientific background to help them develop more energy-efficient Linear Fresnel Reflector systems. It will also appeal to students studying these systems for the first time, as it supplies a comprehensive overview of their theoretical analysis and applications. . 606 $aRenewable energy resources 606 $aComputer mathematics 606 $aMicrowaves 606 $aOptical engineering 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aRenewable and Green Energy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/111000 606 $aComputational Science and Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14026 606 $aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24019 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 615 0$aRenewable energy resources. 615 0$aComputer mathematics. 615 0$aMicrowaves. 615 0$aOptical engineering. 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 14$aRenewable and Green Energy. 615 24$aComputational Science and Engineering. 615 24$aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering. 615 24$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 676 $a551.5271 700 $aKarathanasis$b Stavros$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0968460 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337590703321 996 $aLinear Fresnel Reflector Systems for Solar Radiation Concentration$92199660 997 $aUNINA
