ABSTRACT:
This invention the multiple reflection solar energy absorber makes possible the direct absorption of solar energy into a transparent working fluid, thereby heating the fluid and discharging it through a nozzle to produce power. The invention comprises a method for producing an ultra high concentration of solar flux and a means to circulate the working fluid into an interior cavity confining the ultra high energy concentration producing absorption of heat energy. The apparatus of the invention comprises a primary and a secondary solar energy concentrator, a multiple reflection chamber, a working fluid, a nozzle and thermal insulation. The invention can be constructed in several embodiments suitable for heating both liquids and gases.
