ABSTRACT:
A rotating heat pipe solar power generator is provided in which a heat pipe has a tube concentrically positioned within it to define an annular evaporation chamber, the tube being fixed to the pipe near one end thereof by the stator blades of a turbine. The heat pipe includes a large diameter evaporator section and a small diameter condenser section remote from the turbine. The tube extends into the entrance portion of the condenser section, and liquid is pumped into the evaporation chamber through an annular throat with a tapered annulus constituting the juncture between the two sections of the heat pipe, this throat serving as a centrifugal pump. The turbine is geared to the heat pipe so that both rotate.
