A parabolic trough is a device that collects sunlight and converts it into energy using a reflective collector tube and storage device. It is designed to follow the path of the sun and can be made of treated glass or other reflective materials. The technology relies on the reflective quality of the panels and their […]
Parabolic dishes collect or project energy using their reflective, circular, parabolic shape. They can be used for various purposes, including satellite dishes, telescopes, microphones, and solar cooking. The dish works by collecting or refracting energy through an antenna located in the center of the dish. Parabolic dishes have been used since ancient times and can […]
The parabolic indicator, also known as parabolic SAR, is used to find trends in the prices of a market or security. It calculates the Parabolic SAR value based on the most extreme point reached in the current trend and how many times a new extreme point is reached. An analyst plots the movements of the […]
Parabolic mirrors capture and focus energy, and can distribute it outward. They are a type of paraboloid, used in reflecting telescopes and made with low-expansion glass. They can cause distortion, including coma. They are also used in optical illusion toys and to light the Olympic torch. A parabolic mirror is a specially shaped object designed […]
