A solar collector is a type of heat exchanger, which converts sun rays/radiation into a useful form of energy/internal energy of the circulating medium/fluid . Solar collector technologies are classified into three categories based on their usage.
Many CSP designs were proposed, but CSP selection should depend on cost, performance, ease of fabrication, and payback period. Detailed studies of PTC and FC also reveal the land availability and efficiency factor. If solar collectors' efficiency is the priority over land, then PTC should be chosen; otherwise, it is better to have FC.
