What is it about?
A theoretical–experimental study was performed on the different reflecting surfaces of each collector, such as the mirrors’ reflecting surface, reflecting surface of the 316 L stainless-steel mirror polished, reflecting surface of the aluminum foil’s reflective surface with an aluminum paint, surface reflective type 304 stainless steel-mirror polish.

Why is it important?
The best performance was obtained from the stainless-steel solar collectors, regardless of the type of stainless-steel quality. Thus, it is advisable to use the experimental model itself as a supporting tool for drawing up the computer design.
Perspectives
The solar power is regarded as an inexhaustible source of energy. Therefore, the quest for affordable and low-cost materials to build solar equipment is justified.
