This book provides a comprehensive look at the science, methods, designs, and limitations of nonimaging optics. It begins with an in-depth discussion on thermodynamically efficient optical designs and how they improve the performance and cost effectiveness of solar concentrating and illumination systems. It then moves into limits to concentration, imaging devices and their limitations, and the theory of furnaces and its applications to optical design. Numerous design methods are discussed in detail followed by chapters of estimating the performance of a nonimaging design and pushing their limits of concentration. Exercises and worked examples are included throughout.

Industry Reviews

Govind Agrawal - "Nonimaging Optics" is very popular in the industry, and the
book should do quite well if it is written from the point of
view of an Engineer. Prof. ROLAND WINSTON is "the expert" in
this field and should do a very good job. We just hired one
of his colleagues from Germany here at the Institute of Optics,
and he will be teaching a course on this topic.
