METHOD OF THERMAL CONVERSION OF SOLAR POWER Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: solar power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: method is used for transforming sunbeam energy to thermal energy. Method is performed by means of sequent connection of solar beam concentrators. One of concentrators is composed of a field of local concentrators, which are built in heat-insulating lightproof material. The material embraces internal room of sunbeam-absorbing chamber. Built-in concentrators and sunbeam conductors have to be basically hollow truncated pyramids which have faces covered with beam-reflecting material. Bases of pyramids are closed by transparent heat-insulating material The second sunbeam concentrator has to be external one. Those concentrators preliminary have shape of truncated pyramid with faces covered with light-reflecting material. The third level of solar-beam pumping of sunbeam-absorbing chamber is created additionally due to creation of total filed of external sunbeam-reflecting surfaces in environment at different distances from sunbeam-absorbing chamber.

EFFECT: reduced cost of multistep pumping of solar power to sunbeam-absorbing chamber.
