Abstract

1,172,829. Utilizing solar radiation. P. H. J. SOUTHBY. 5 Dec., 1966 [16 Dec., 1965; 23 June, 1966; 3 Oct., 1966], Nos. 53527/65, 28235/66 and 44143/66. Heading F4U. A system for deriving useful energy from solar radiation comprises an object to be irradiated having elongate parallel parts, an elongate lens or lens system disposed over each part to concentrate solar radiation thereon, and means for extracting energy from the object. As illustrated, semi-cylindrical lenses 3 are mounted on a transparent sheet 4 and concentrate radiation on the troughs 5 of a corrugated sheet 1 of heat conductive material supported on an insulating backing 2. The apparatus is inclined to the horizontal and a liquid to be heated flows along the troughs. In another embodiment, Fig. 2 (not shown), the corrugated sheet is replaced by parallel pipes partially embedded in the insulating backing. In a further embodiment, Fig. 3 (not shown), the lenses are Fresnel lenses and the pipes have diametrically opposed fins lying on the insulating backing so that the concentrated radiation is intercepted over a greater part of the sun's path. In modifications (not shown), the lenses may be formed by liquid-filled spaces between a corrugated and a flat sheet or between two corrugated sheets, and the liquid pipes may be of flattened cross-section. The liquid pipes and lenses may be mounted in a frame which may be moved to track the sun either manually, by a synchronous motor, or by a weight and escapement mechanism, Figs. 4-7 (not shown). The liquid pipes may be replaced by photo-cells for the purpose of electricity generation.
