Title: Sidharth Janardhana Kshirsagar and a Light-Redirecting Solar Invention.

Introduction

Sidharth Janardhana Kshirsagar is an inventor associated with Bengaluru, India. His patent work addresses ways to redirect light within solar energy absorption systems and direct more light toward photovoltaic cells.

Latest Patents

The provided information lists one patent for Kshirsagar: “Light redirecting prism, a redirecting prismatic wall and a solar panel incorporating the same.” The invention describes a prism with three elongate surfaces. An incident surface receives parallel light rays, while a redirecting surface uses total internal reflection to redirect light within a predetermined range of angles. A transmitting surface then sends the redirected light out of the prism at a predetermined angle toward a solar energy-absorbing device.

The disclosure also describes assembling redirecting prisms into a prismatic wall. The prism or wall can be incorporated into a solar panel to increase the amount of light reaching its photovoltaic cell.

Career Highlights

Kshirsagar’s listed patent reflects work on optical components for solar energy systems.
