Direct conversion of solar radiation to mechanical power using thermostatic bimetals and linear Fresnel lenses

Creator:

Pritchard, Vernon Ross

Abstract:

Conversion of solar energy to mechanical power through the use of thermostatic bimetals and linear Fresnel lenses was found to be both theoretically and experimentally feasible. Using linear Fresnel lenses to concentrate sunlight on bimetallic coils caused a simple sun powered motor to produce rotational shaft power. However, continuous rotational...
