In order to increase the operating efficiency of solar power generating system its absorbing surface must be continuously turned towards the Sun. Modern Sun tracking systems are analyzed. Operation of solar air wall-type collector is considered. Collector’s absorber plates were situated in two ways – horizontally and vertically. Operation of the collector with horizontally situated plates is to turn of the plates towards the Sun according to solar altitude angle. Vertically situated plates posit
