Abstract: A generator rotor lead path configuration includes a plurality of electrically conductive components attached to each other. These components may include a cleat and a wedge. The improved lead path inhibits, if not prevents, lead path failure. A method of assembling or fitting the lead path into a generator is also provided, as well as a method of replacing or retrofitting a lead path that is susceptible to failure with the improved lead path configuration. Assistance in determining causes of lead path failure and ways to overcome lead path failure are also provided.

Abstract: A thermo-volumetric motor (10) includes a continuous incompressible fluid path in the form of a hydraulic oil path (12), a continuous compressible fluid path in the form of a refrigerant path (14), and a solar collector (18). The solar collector (18) is adapted to absorb heat from a heat source, in this example, sunlight. The hydraulic oil path (12) includes a pressure transfer mechanism, in this example a pair of hydraulic cylinders (20A, 20B) located in a parallel flow arrangement. The oil path (12) further comprises an actuating device, in this example a hydraulic loader (22), in fluid communication with a first heat exchanger (24). The refrigerant path (14) comprises a pump (28) operatively coupled to the hydraulic motor (22), and a heat transfer device, in this example a second heat exchanger (25). The refrigerant path (14) further comprises a cooling unit, in this example a first accumulator or condenser (32), used for cooling the refrigerant.
