			Given the 6000W power loss from blackbody radiation of our collector at 200C, it is desirable to use low emissivity coatings. [http://www.solec.org/solkotehome.htm#PRODUCT%20DESCRIPTION%20and%20FEATURES Solkote] appears to have absorption around 90% and emissivity aroung 25%. This would reduce the blackbody radiation to 1500 W.
