We have designed a Linear Fresnel-type Reflector (LFR) to reduce the area of light concentration based on the caustic surfaces produced by reflection. The LFR is designed by a set of planar mirrors, which appropriately have slopes in such a way that input energy can be focused at predefined absorber area. Also, losses due to riser steps were obtained from a geometrical point of view, to reduce and reconfigure the LFR shape in order to facilitate its manufacture. Finally, a LFR prototype will be fabricated on a single aluminum sheet where their grooves will be molded through CNC machine.
