| Solar energy is main source of power for all creatures
on the earth. All kinds of energy on the earth practically are
based on solar energy and its derivatives.
In order to use the low intensity per square area of solar
radiation, it is necessary to concentrate the coming
solar radiation to the earth surface. There are many methods
to concentrate the solar radiation.
One of the way to concentrate the solar radiation is the
solar concentration by using array of mirrors. This
methods is now being investigated in Faculty of Engineering,
University of Indonesia, by the authors. The investigation
particularly concentrated in the way to control the movement
of mirrors.
Below is shown the animation of time varying position
of solar radiation and how the mirrors should be moved according
to the changing position of the sun.
