Abstract
Concentrating solar power plants (CSP) use mirrors to concentrate the sun's rays to harness the solar energy available. One of the most important parts of the electricity generation with CSP is how to concentrate the solar rays and understand the optical phenomenon. Solar sun shape has enough influence in solar energy resource with CSP. A new achieve has to be accomplished implementing new solar sunshapes in a ray-tracing software. Tonatiuh was created by Centro Nacional de Energías Renovables (CENER) an must be improved. The implementation of two sunshapes has been made with programming language C++. Another objective of the study is to know how the different solar sun shapes take part in the IAM results. IAM is the indicer angle modifier and it is a coefficient that is used in optical simulations to reduce computational cost.
