Odeillo solar furnace. Parabolic reflector at Odeillo-Font-Romeau solar power station in the eastern Pyrenees,France. Positioned in front of the reflector is an array of sixty-three flat orientating mirrors that automatically track the motion of the sun,reflecting incident radiation onto the parabolic reflector. The reflector is composed of 9,500 mirrors,which concentrate the sun's rays onto a dark coated furnace at its focus (central tower). The system is capable of producing thermal power of 1000 kilowatts and achieving a temperature of 3800 degrees Celsuis,within the furnace | |
