Abstract

Applications of parabolic collectors for solar heating and solar thermal power plant increased in the recent years. Most of the solar power plants installed with parabolic collectors are on flat terrain and they may be subjected to some environmental problems. One of problems for large parabolic collector is their stability to track the sun with respect to time very accurately. Any small off tracking as well as the collector structure stability will be affected by strong wind blowing for the regions where the wind velocity is high.
