摘要:
A method and apparatus for converting natural heat energy into another form of energy is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: (a) exposing one end of a superconductor body to a source of natural heat energy; (b) inserting another end of the superconductor body into a tank of a steam boiler that holds water therein such that the natural heat energy is transmitted by the superconductor body to the water held in the tank of the steam boiler so as to convert the water into steam; (c) providing the steam from the steam boiler to a steam turbine to produce a mechanical rotary motion; and (d) converting the mechanical rotary motion into electrical energy via use of an electric power generator that is coupled to the steam turbine.

The disclosed embodiments relate to the design of a system that converts sunlight into electricity. During operation, the system concentrates the sunlight onto a front surface of a selective absorber, wherein the selective absorber comprises a semiconductor material having a band gap capable of absorbing most spectral components of the sunlight (such as intrinsic silicon), and wherein the concentrated sunlight causes heat to build up in the selective absorber. Next, the system uses heat obtained from the selective absorber to drive a heat engine, which converts the heat into mechanical energy. Finally, the system converts the mechanical energy into electricity.

A modular and portable motorized solar concentrator assembly for production of ethanol, electricity, potable water, or combinations thereof can include a housing and a reflective array. An airtight chamber is formed in the reflective array, and ancillary reflective concentrators can provide addition solar radiation thereto. An inert gas in the airtight chamber can form a low-humidity and air-free environment. The portable motorized solar concentrator assembly can engage an electricity producing plant, a desalination plant, an ethanol producing plant, or combinations thereof.

A solar automatic heat collecting and equalizing tube, including: a glass tube, an absorption tube, and a baffle. The glass tube is sleeved on the absorption tube. The absorption tube is coated with a heat absorption layer. The space between the glass tube and the absorption tube is vacuum. The baffle is disposed in the inner cavity of the absorption tube and is configured to drive a fluid in the absorption tube to tumble up and down alternately. The baffle is spiral in shape and fixed in the absorption tube.

A ground high-temperature high-efficiency solar steam electricity-generating device includes a light convergence assembly (1), a heat exchanger assembly(3), a heat storage chamber assembly(5), a base assembly(2), an oil pump(15), a temperature-controlling valve(16), a steam turbine(13), temperature-controlling valve (16), a steam turbine (13), an electricity-generator (12), a system control circuit, a water pump (9) and a water tank assembly (10). The light convergence assembly (1) includes a glass plate (1-1), Fresnel lenses, a U-shaped groove (1-3), a thermal insulating material, a heat collecting pipe (1-5), high temperature heat conducting oil(6-6), a frame (1-7), a rib-plate and a spindle sleeve. The high temperature heat conducting oil(6-6) in the heat collecting pipe (1-5) is communicated with the heat exchanger assembly (3) and the heat storage chamber assembly (5), so that the warm water in the heat exchanger assembly (3) is quickly converted into high temperature steam which drives the steam turbine (13) and the electricity-generator (15) to generate electrical energy. The device can realize high solar utilization, high automaticity, simple structure, lower cost, small size, and is safe and reliable.
