Beside the plant geometries of the tower height, heliostat dimensions, field layout, and the optical properties, the quality of these two values depends on the heliostat field efficiency, which outlined in the mirror tilt angle cosine effect, reflected rays' spillage loss, heliostat distribution blocking and shadowing and tracking control error. To investigate the annual heat flux collecting quantity and distribution for an experimental field, distributed and located in Universiti Teknologi Petronas, a detailed dual axis tracking model is elaborated herein. © 2006-2016 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN). publisher: Asian Research Publishing Network date: 2016 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: Ali, B.H. and Gilani, S.I. and Al-Kayiem, H.H. and Khlief, A.K.
