Concentrating solar power (CSP) plants use mirrors to concentrate the sun's energy to drive traditional steam turbines or engines that create electricity. The thermal energy concentrated in a CSP plant can be stored and used to produce electricity when it is needed, day or night. Today, roughly 1,815 megawatts (MWac) of CSP plants are in operation in the United States.
Parabolic Trough
Parabolic trough systems use curved mirrors to focus the sun’s energy onto a receiver tube that runs down the center of a trough. In the receiver tube, a high-temperature heat transfer fluid (such as a synthetic oil) absorbs the sun’s energy, reaching temperatures of 750°F or higher, and passes through a heat exchanger to heat water and produce steam. The steam drives a conventional steam turbine power system to generate electricity. A typical solar collector field contains hundreds of parallel rows of troughs connected as a series of loops, which are placed on a north-south axis so the troughs can track the sun from east to west. Individual collector modules are typically 15-20 feet tall and 300-450 feet long.
Compact Linear Fresnel Reflector
CLFR uses the principles of curved-mirror trough systems, but with long parallel rows of lower-cost flat mirrors. These modular reflectors focus the sun's energy onto elevated receivers, which consist of a system of tubes through which water flows. The concentrated sunlight boils the water, generating high-pressure steam for direct use in power generation and industrial steam applications.
Answer:
Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa
Explanation:
Given that Vacuum gauge pressure= 30 KPa
Barometer reading =755 mm Hg
We know that barometer always reads atmospheric pressure at given situation.So atmospheric pressure is equal to 755 mm Hg.
We know that P= ρ g h
Density of 
So P=13600 x 9.81 x 0.755
P=100.72 KPa
We know that
Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure
But here given that 30 KPa is a Vacuum pressure ,so we will take it as negative.
Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure
Absolute pressure=100.72 - 30 KPa
So
Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa
