  • Vapour only cycling of heat transfer fluid for the thermal storage of solar energy
    Patent number: 10393094
    Abstract: Heat transfer fluid in vapor only state is cycled through solar collector(s) (12) and a sensible heat storage medium (14) to transfer heat from the solar collector(s) (12) to the sensible heat storage medium (14). The heat transfer fluid is a liquid at ambient temperature, but substantially in the vapor state throughout the entire cycle when in operation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 23, 2016
    Date of Patent: August 27, 2019
    Assignee: SUNRISE CSP PTY LIMITED
    Inventor: Joseph Sydney Coventry

  • Solar thermal collectors
    Patent number: 9057536
    Abstract: A dish structure (10) has a virtual front surface, the front surface having a periphery, and a plurality of spaced apart non overlapping elongate front beams (16), each of which extends between two points on the periphery. Each front beam (16) has at least one mounting area (20) for receiving a reflective panel (150), the at least one mounting area (20) conforming substantially to the virtual front surface in the longitudinal direction of the front beam (16).
