The heliostat structure and shape must deliver the essential rigidity to accurately reflect solar radiation onto the target under several working conditions. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of various rectangular heliostat shape aspect ratios ? =L/W on the spiral layout performance considered by keeping the same heliostat area. Here ?L? and ?W? are the length and width of the rectangular heliostat shape respectively. A combination of an-inhouse developed computer code based on the vec...
