Abstract
⺠A method is developed to optimise the non equidistant spacing arrangement of mirror elements in a linear Fresnel reflector. ⺠An optimum is determined by minimising costs whilst maximising exergy and operational hours. ⺠The new method provides improved performance over an existing design method prominent in the literature. ⺠The ideal operating temperature is also determined.
