dc.description.abstractThe construction details and the performance characteristics of a Parabolic Trough Solar Collector system are presented in this paper. Two main items of the system are presented namely; the collector and the tracking mechanism. From the results obtained the collector performance equation is given by: n = 0.642 - 0.441 (~T/I) The collector time constant is equal to 30 sec and its half acceptance angle is 0.5°. The tracking mechanism proved to be very reliable and accurate. Its maximum error is 0.2°. From all the above results it can concluded that the Parabolic Trough Collector System is a viable means for harnessing solar energy.en_US
