  • DUAL FLUID CIRCUIT SYSTEM FOR GENERATING A VAPOROUS WORKING FLUID USING SOLAR ENERGY
    Publication number: 20120274069
    Abstract: Systems for producing vaporous working fluid are provided, including: a first fluid passage configured to convey a working fluid to a first solar heating system, wherein the first solar heating system heats the working fluid to produce a heated working fluid having a temperature t1 and a quality X1; a second fluid passage configured to convey a heat transfer fluid to a second solar heating system to produce a heated heat transfer fluid; and a heat exchanger configured to transfer heat from the heated heat transfer fluid to the heated working fluid. When X1<1, the heat transfer results in an increase in quality of the heated working fluid When X1=1, the heat transfer results in an increase in temperature of the heated working fluid. Methods of using the systems to produce vaporous working fluid are also provided.
