Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The paper considers the technique of hybrid concentrator solar plants developing with a new design that increases the optical concentration ratio and utilizes additionally diffuse solar radiation. The circulation of heat carrier passes in divided PV modules and thermal collectors circuits on a common carrier platform with the implementation of resetting heat in a counter flow mode in the linear heat exchangers. Described data experiments and calculations of specific performance of electric and thermal energy for different concentration ratio and at different installation latitudes as well as the cost of energy production calculations.
