Finally after many years of reflection, I think I can finally test one of the first solar dish that will be affordable for reproduction 99% of this planet. The 2 heliotrack.com follower axes is mounted and the system is functional.

Thank you again to Justin Bruen of Heliotrack.com for his genius to have created this solar tracker 2 axis which is the key to any solar system.

An update on the circulation of heated liquid at home
solar parable:

It seems that the idea of ​​exploiting an opening point
central of the parable is interesting about it here a
fluid circulation possiblity to an underground storage
in a saturated saline solution.

The circulation liquid that I will use is corn oil
because it seems that it freezes at -20 C. and is less dense than water can flow so naturally .... to be continued ....

I 2 old parables in my garage, 70cm diameter. The head is, I suppose out of use, but who cares. A take on region of Charleroi, Belgium, send me a pm for price

Some results:

- 1 15 liter of water in minutes (cold water of the city)
about 40 degree celcius in the morning hours 8 30 2012 late August.
veiled but visible sun.

parabola 83cm by 86cm - Focal 51 cm

My test conditions are limited to maximum solar 2 hours
the morning because my dish is in the garden.

My conclusions:

* You must install the tracker 2axes just behind the focal point
where boiled water to follow the sun.

* The recipient must contain a cavity to preheat water
then circulate in 3-4 copper meters in diameter 0.5 cm
spirally wound to a depth of 10 cm.

* A parable at least 180cm can give very good results.

It seems reasonable to heat the oil with the dish and transfer to sub-layer of soil or sand for natural bateries for quietly heat rises and heats a home while the winters or preheat water hot water tank too.

The system requires a circular ball bearing 40 cm diameter, it is the key with the 2 follower axes see photo:

Bonjour,
For your solar installation, ASDER can give you an advice service on:
the feasibility of a system, rather water heater or boiler heating +
steps to take
investment budget
warn you about points of vigilance

Do not hesitate to consult ASDER before you to be free switch on the system that suits you, or when a malfunction of your system.

the page is far from uninteresting, but that train!

in fact, the photos are stored in high definition on the server, so that even compressed for display, it take forever to appear for the visitor.

Remedy: replace the photos on the site by compressed photos, for example of about 300 400 X pixels.

Several programs allow to do so, including the GIMP (free)

Thank you for these elephant info is appreciated :D

Some info for those who want to start:

The entire structure is made of aluminum (horizontal girder, vertical hollow tube, small vertical square posts), the parable from a solar cooker sun and ice.

The heated oil at home by exchanger heat fixed at home and will flow back into the center of the center post and the heat stored in a box under the dish.

the rays are always focused at the same point regardless of the vertical rotation of the dish!. the axes 2 follower is always perpendicular to the sun and follows whatever its position in the sky.

all year we follow our star with this system and recovered energy.

To see more explanation in French click on the link in the previous post on the French language.

Monitoring is automatic or manual?

What temperature do you get?
