METHOD FOR DISSIPATING HEAT AND IMPROVING THE TOTAL EFFICIENCY WHEN PRODUCING ELECTRICITY IN SOLAR THERMAL POWER PLANTS OR SOLAR COLLECTOR FIELDS SET UP IN PARTICULAR AWAY FROM THE OCEAN OR IN ARID REGIONS

摘要

The total efficiency is increased by the long distance transport of cooling water to and from solar thermal power plants. Seawater is preferably desalinated using the waste heat of the power plants, and the distilled water is then either supplied to wet-type cooling towers or transported to heat consumers by long pipes.
