The design, construction and test results of non-evacuated stationary CPC solar collectors with flat absorbers are presented and discussed. The proposed collector design is based on a truncated asymmetric CPC reflector, consisting of a parabolic and a circular part. A flat bifacial absorber is installed at the upper part of the collector, parallel to the glazing to form a thermal trap space between the reverse absorber surface and the circular part of the mirror. Two prototypes based on the same collector geometry were constructed and tested. The first model consists of one mirror–absorber unit and the second of three smaller units integrated in one collector device. The truncated CPC mirror and the installation of the absorber parallel to the glazing keep the optical efficiency at a satisfactory level. The reduction of radiative thermal losses by using selective absorbers and the suppression of convection thermal losses from the reverse absorber surface to the collector cover result to a significant decrease of the total collector thermal losses. The experimental results showed that the proposed CPC collector could achieve a maximum efficiency of 0.71 and a stagnation temperature of about 180°C, with the multiunit collector device being more efficient and practical.
