Abstract

See full text

The apparatus is a low-temperature solar to electric power conversion system. A solar collector directs solar insolation to a cavity receiver which heats primary thermal transport fluid to approximately 700.degree. F. An auxiliary fossil or biomass heater may be used to replace or supplement the solar-powered cavity receiver. The primary thermal transport fluid is provided to a Stirling engine which provides electric power and hot water heated to approximately 160.degree. F.
