Abstract

A scheme of three-dimensional spiral-helix spiral tubular solar collector has been represented, and principle of its operation has been described. Analytical expressions for the length of the helix on the surface of the hemisphere and the length of the plane Archimedean spiral at the base of the hemisphere have been found. These dependencies can be used in design, manufacture and operation of solar collectors, as well as for calculation of solar energy flux perceived with them, as a function of spatial coordinates and time
