摘要 |
The invention relates to an installation for obtaining mechanical energy from solar thermal energy, combining a conventional solar thermal installati on connected to heat exchangers housed inside an externally-insulated vertic al shell having an upwardly decreasing cross-section, in which an ascending air flow is generated in order to move a turbine housed at the upper end of the shell. In order to make better use of the wind at the installation a ret ractable orientable screen can also be installed at the point of the nozzle at which the external air current enters the shell, said screen being automa tically oriented, by means of sensors, so as to maximise the flow of air ent ering the system using the natural currents. |
