ABSTRACT:
A system for generating solar energy utilizes a plurality of solar radiation absorption bodies formed as spherical balls which interact with solar radiation focalization devices which constitute paraboloid mirrors in order to effect heating of the spherical balls by the solar radiation which is concentrated at an irradiation position defined by the paraboloid mirrors. The heated balls are transported to a heat accumulator and after the heat has been absorbed therefrom they are returned to the focalization mirrors. At the mirrors, balls are held in holding devices until a heated ball leaves the irradiation position and switch devices operate to provide new balls to a vacant holding position. A feed and return system for transporting the balls between the accumulator and the focalization mirrors may comprise thermally insulated pipes and the balls may be moved by gravity feed or by a compressed air system.
