I am planning a trough system that will track E-W but will be N/S stationary and am wondering what my optimum angle should be.
This Site -
said that my December optimum would be 30 degrees and June optimum 78 degrees.
Should I split the difference or lean more toward the Dec Angle, because that is when I will need it the most?
I am in the Ozarks and winter nights of 15-20 degrees are fairly common.
I still have the option to wood heat, as a backup, but am getting a little old to cut wood, so want to keep that to a minimum.
I also hope to produce enough steam to run a generator a couple of hours a day.
Opinions Please.
Thanx, Alan
