SOLAR THERMAL POWER GENERATION USING FIRST AND SECOND WORKING FLUIDS WHICH ARE INDEPENDENTLY VARIABLE OR OF DIFFERENT TEMPERATURE IN A RANKINE CYCLE

摘要

591526 A system to convert the heat collected by solar thermal collectors into electricity using a Rankine cycle generator with multiple working fluids and multiple temperature-level heat sources is disclosed. First and second thermal transfer fluids are used to heat a working fluid in one or more power generation cycles. The first and second thermal transfer fluids are independently variable or of different temperature.
