The parabolic dish, whose axis is directed toward the sun, concentrates in its focal point the whole

sunlight that
falls on its surface. In order to improve its efficiency, its surface, in addition to being made as close as possible to
the mathematically calculated parabola, due to the low dissipation of the sun's rays in relation to the focal point, the
material from which it is made has to have a higher reflection ability. As the best reflective material, it turns out
that it is a common mirror with efficiency of 98-99%. Of course, it is very difficult to make a mirror of this shape,
so for that reason the surface of the bowl itself would be made of a construction on which segments of mirrors
would be mounted whose dimensions would be smaller than the radius of the receiver and they would be placed
under a certain angle, so that the whole light to reflect would be concentrated within the receiver surface. The
construction itself would be made of profiles with solid and light alloys that would be resistant to external
influences.

Due to the movement of the sun during the day, two electric motors and sensors (one for horizontal and one for
vertical corrections) would be added to the whole construction to monitor the sun to rotate the bowl.
It should be noted that the larger the surface of the plate, the greater the efficiency of the whole system, i.e. the
higher maximum temperature can be generated on the surface of the receiver.

For example, the power of solar radiation is about 1000 Wh / m², which means that every 1 hour, on an area of 1
square meter, solar radiation is equivalent to 1000 W. From here it can be calculated that if a parabolic a dish of
20m at 20m, then it would have 400 m² and would concentrate 400 kWh / m² energy on the foot of the receiver
which represents a significant amount of energy. Although further energy would be processed with certain losses,
however, 4 to 5 such plates would be sufficient to meet the needs of a solar power plant with a power of 1 MWh.
The construction of the parabolic bowl would take place in several stages:
