Abstract
It is to heighten the heat collecting efficiency of a linear type solar heat collecting apparatus. A plurality of reflection lines and one reception line are included. The reflection lines are arranged in parallel substantially in the south-north direction on earth. Each reflection line L, L, . . . has a heliostat. The heliostatis composed of a plurality of mirror segments disposed in series on each reflection line L, L, . . . . The reception line C extends in the east-west direction perpendicular to the reflection lines L, L, . . . , and is disposed at a predetermined position above the reflection lines L, L, . . . . The reception line C has a single receiver. The mirror segments disposed on each reflection line L, L, . . . radiate reflected light of sunlight that has impinged on the mirror surface toward the reception line C. The receiverdisposed on the reception line C collects the heat of the reflected light of sunlight radiated from the mirror segments disposed on each reflection line.
