ABSTRACT:
In order to create a process for using solar energy in a gas and steam power station, which incorporates a gas turbine circuit and a steam turbine circuit for converting thermal energy into mechanical work, whereby a compressed gaseous heat carrier which has been heated is fed to a gas turbine in the gas turbine circuit and waste gases from the gas turbine are used to generate steam, which is fed to a steam turbine in the steam turbine circuit, and whereby this process has a high efficiency rate for converting thermal energy into mechanical work and makes optimum use of the solar energy, it is proposed that thermal energy be supplied to the heat carrier in the gas turbine circuit by means of solar radiation.
