Abstract
The Monte-Carlo ray-tracing method was applied coupling with geometry optical properties. Some errors including unideal sunlight with angular diameter, tracking error, reflection error, alignment error were also included in this model. The effects of the rim angle of concentrator for flux distributions were showed in view of equal diameter and equal focal length in the paraboloidal dish concentrators. The calculation results present a reference for the design and assemblage of the solar collector system.
