Discover the Power of Optic Solar Reflectors | Online Literature Recommendation

AI Thread Summary
Optic solar reflectors (OSRs) are specialized devices used in satellites for thermal control, often referred to as second surface mirrors. The discussion highlights a request for online literature on this specific technology. Participants express confusion over the terminology, with one acknowledging a lack of knowledge about OSRs. Clarification is sought regarding whether the inquiry pertains to parabolic solar collectors or another type of reflector. The conversation emphasizes the need for more information on OSRs and relevant resources.

Hellooo Friends

Tell me what is optic solar reflector. Recommend me online literature
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Your question is sort of vague. Almost all solar reflectors are optical. Are you referring to parabolic solar collectors?
 
I am asking about OSR(optic solar reflector ) used in satellites for thermal control.I think it is also called second surface mirror
 
Ahhh... I hadn't run across that term before. Sorry. I know nothing about it.
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
