METHOD FOR GENERATING ELECTRIC AND THERMAL POWER, AND SYSTEM FOR CARRYING OUT SAID METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to a method for generating electric and thermal power exclusively from solar radiation energy as well as a system for carrying out said method. According to said method, electric power generated in at least one collector (1) by means of the photovoltaic elements thereof is fed to the mains, and the thermal energy generated in the collector (1) is fed to at least one heat transformer (2) by means of a medium transferring said thermal energy. In the heat transformer (2), a phase of said thermal energy is heated towards the boiling point of the medium transferring the thermal energy while the other phase of said thermal energy is cooled towards the freezing point of the medium transferring the thermal energy. Both phases are then fed at the largest possible ?t to at least one semiconductor element (3) that has a suitable size, the electric power generated in the semiconductor element (3) is fed to the mains, and the medium transferring the thermal energy is then fed to at least one distribution panel (4) which withdraws the remaining thermal energy from the medium and feeds said heat to a corresponding supply system for further utilization while returning the medium that has been cooled to a maximum to the collector (1). The photovoltaic elements of the collector (1) are cooled by means of the cooled medium in order to increase the efficiency and extend the service life of the photovoltaic elements, the cooled medium being able to absorb as much thermal energy as possible during the subsequent process.
