Greetings!
I have a final project where I should measure maximum solar radiation heat flux during a day on re-radiating surface (i.e mirror) towards a window. My object finally is to to find an optimum angle(which will be controlled by a control system) for the mirror that should re-radiate the maximum heat flux toward the chosen surface(in my case- window). I've searched manuals and tutorials over the web to find how I can simulate the given problem in Comsol 4.3 but it seems I cannot do it. As far as I succeeded is to simulate a heat flux on given geometry during specific time of a day, wheres my goal is to simulate heat flux re radiated from the mirror given a mirror angle over the whole daytime range.
Any clues and directions would be much appreciated!
Regards,
Victor.
