System for converting solar radiation into thermal energy

摘要

It is disclosed a system for converting solar radiation into thermal energy, said system comprising a collector configured to generate thermal energy when said solar radiation strikes it, a concentrator configured to concentrate the solar radiation on the collector, a hydraulic circuit configured to convey an exchange fluid for transferring said thermal energy to a heat accumulator. The concentrator comprises a support structure having a continuous surface in the form of a paraboloid of revolution and a reflective layer applied to said continuous surface so as to form a reflective surface of the concentrator.
