20130291858 | HEAT TRANSFER SYSTEM USING SOLAR ENERGY - A system for heating a fluid conveyed or contained in a pipe or other process equipment by solar energy is disclosed. The system includes passive and active control methods to control the temperature of the fluid within a selected temperature range. The passive methods use the natural properties of selected materials for the system and the geometry and the orientation of the materials to control the temperature range. The active methods uses one or more than one control mechanism for changing the ratio of energy gain and heat loss at any point in time during a day and between days and across seasons, with these mechanisms including mechanisms to control energy transfer in and heat transfer out of the fluid. | 11-07-2013 |

20130180569 | RECEIVER - A receiver for a solar radiation-based electrical power generation system comprises a plurality of photovoltaic cells, with the cells being arranged in modules, with each module comprising one or more than one cell, and with the modules being arranged in subarrays, with each subarray comprising a plurality of modules. The receiver also comprises a support framework for the subarrays. | 07-18-2013 |
20130206209 | Conversion of Solar Energy - A solar energy plant/system includes different combinations of solar energy receivers and arrangements of the receivers that make it possible to optimize solar energy collection and conversion into other forms of energy to maximise value. | 08-15-2013 |
20130240017 | PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL MODULE HEAT EXTRACTION ASSEMBLY - An assembly for extracting heat from a photovoltaic cell assembly for a receiver of a solar radiation-based electrical power generating system is disclosed. The assembly comprises a coolant chamber and a coolant member in the form of a plurality of heat transfer fingers of high thermal conductivity material that are located in the coolant chamber. The fingers have ends that are in thermal contact with the photovoltaic cell assembly and thereby facilitate heat transfer away from the assembly. The fingers are sufficiently flexible to accommodate differences in thermal expansion coefficient between the object and the fingers. The fingers have a relatively high surface area for heat transfer from the fingers to coolant that, in use, circulates through the coolant chamber. | 09-19-2013 |
