Recently purchased a small satellite dish for making a parabolic solar concentrator. The idea was to take a feel of the heat it will generate.
I pasted 1 inch square mirror pieces with resin on the dish. It took more than 03 hours to mount hundreds of them. In the morning i just brought it into sun and viola in 03 seconds it started smoldering wood and other plastic things. It was a good start:
Some more experiment and temperature monitoring yet to be done. I shall check the maximum temperature attain on the focal point and will expand this topic here.
The initial results are very promising so far. I am surprised the abundant heat generation with this method. I am seriously thinking of using this heat.
I have an idea to make a bigger custom parabolic structure and mount flat mirrors on it.Installation of two axes sun-tracking and mounting a small boiler at the focal point. Use the generated steam to run small turbine to generate electricity.
Oh really.. should i have to design the steam turbine and fabricate it? How much steam it shall require to generate atleast 500watts of electricity from the generator? How big the parabolic concentrator to give me continuous steam for running turbine?
Can i avoid generating electricity by using steam turbine? any other way to make electricity ?
May be we able to make some simple system to harness this heat.. Thermodynamics is all about the temperature difference ;)

This blog is really helpful regarding all educational knowledge I earned. It covered a great area of subject which can assist a lot of needy people. Everything mentioned here is clear and very useful.solar motion sensor light outdoor
ReplyDeleteThe contents are really cohesive and makes sense. I really appreciate the writing style of the author. It isn't like the regular articles that I quit almost mid way. A good work indeed! solar jar lid lights
ReplyDeleteI'm here to share my testimony of what a good trusted loan company did for me. My name is Nikita Tanya, from Russian and I’m a lovely mother of 3 kids I lost my funds on trying to get a loan it was so hard for me and my children, I went online to seek for a loan assistance all hope was lost until one faithful day when I met this friend of mine who recently secured a loan from Le_Meridian Funding Service She introduced me to this honest loan company who helped me get a loan in within 5 working days, I will forever be grateful to Mr Benjamin, for helping me get back on feet again. You can contact Mr Benjamin via email: lfdsloans@outlook.com lfdsloans@lemeridianfds.com, they do not know I’m doing this for them, but i just have to do it because a lot of people are out there who are in need of a loan assistance please come to this company and be saved.WhatsApp:(+1 989-394-3740)
