Title:
METHOD OF EFFECTING THE SAFE TRANSFER OF SOLAR ENERGY AND A LOW-PRESSURE EQUIPMENT SYSTEM FOR THE TRANSPORT OF SOLAR ENERGY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004029522
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The subject of the present invention concerns a method of effecting the safe and failure-free transfer of solar energy, and a low-pressure equipment system for the transport of solar energy, which serves to transfer solar energy gathered by collectors to the usable water storage tank, thereby enabling the functioning of the circuit of collectors at a low pressure. The method of effecting the safe transfer of solar energy consists in the introduction of a closed low-pressure gas pocket (4) to the closed circuit of transfer fluid (17) that transports solar energy from the solar collectors (2) to the heat exchanger (6). The low-pressure equipment system for the transport of solar energy utilises two independent circuits, whereas the primary transfer circuit (1), used to transport transfer fluid (17), is made up of solar collectors (2) connected by means of pipes (3) with a heat exchanger (6). The heat exchanger (6) is connected via pipes (3) and through a drainage tank (5) with the circulating pump of the primary circuit (11) and the solar collectors (2), The secondary transfer circuit (7) comprises a circulating pump of the secondary circuit (10), installed on the pipeline which supplies cold water to the heat exchanger (6), and pumps which carry hot water away from the heat exchanger (6) to the usable warm water tank, whereas both the primary and secondary transfer circuits are equipped with a control system (13).
