internally reflective solar power tower concept 01
Description
internally reflective solar power tower concept 01 a solar cell power tower, using both sides of each panel, (top and bottom panels) and using height, saving space. the panels could be fitted in a (wide) circle under an (adjustable) angle inside a reflective glass container, specially designed for creating a certain efficient angle of incidence, and it's (pre-calculable) reflective index, trying to achieve total internal reflection. also force in the most useful specific wavelength of light using filters, bouncing around as many photons as possible internally, in order to maximize use from available space inside the cylindrical shape. maybe by placing a circular mirror on the floor and plating on the inner cylinder, even more light can be captured in the same exact space. scale up or down at will. the shape itself also allows for long exposure during an entire day, hopefully not overheating a single panel, perhaps by spinning them, as the sun moves in our sky. inside the core could be a water heating system, a solar boiler, allowing us to story heat energy over time as well.
