Stirling Solar Dish

[eystparx]

Hello to everybody

As I am new to this forum i thought that this could be a pretty intresting thread to begin with.
Lately I find very intresting the solar-dish stirling engine aplications but after further investigations I am wondering if it is too good to be true Infinia Corp, Renovalia, Eurodish, Tessera and Innova are some of the companies that are selling this type of application. Any comment and opinion is very welcome the least you could do is to enlight me. Thank you for your time

A Sirling Solar Dish is type of concentrating solar collector that optically reflects and focuses the suns incident solar energy onto a small receiving area using mirrors or lenses. By concentrating the sunlight to a single spot, the intensity of the receiving solar energy is magnified many times over with each mirror or lens acting as a single sun shining directly at the same focal point on the dish. The concentration factor, also known as the "number of suns", of a solar dish collector can be greater than 1,000 suns reaching temperatures at the focal point receiver (called the "target") approaching several hundred or even several thousand degrees Celsius depending upon the size of dish.

The heat engine at the focal point of the dish, is driven by the solar thermal energy converting it into rotational mechanical output by the cyclic compression of the engine's working gas, which is usually helium or hydrogen. The mechanical power that is produced is then used to drive an electrical generator or alternator producing a significant amount of AC electrical power. These types of solar heat engines are commonly called Stirling Engines after its inventor Robert Stirling in the year 1817.

Well, A Stirling Solar energy is a clean alternative energy system which is uses concentrated sunlight to to provide electricity. It is very good and effective for almost people who are using it.

We already know that sterling solar energy can provide more electricity. However, this kind of alternative energy have an contained design for not using of water.

Stirling solar dish is so expensive yet it is a clean alternative energy and uses more solar sunlight. But you can still have smaller stirling solar dish and buy it for an affordable price and try to visit this page for some information with that matter http://www.scientificsonline.com/cat...t/?q=parabolic and http://www.hammacher.com/Product/795...c=8&zmap=79578 and also this http://greenpowerscience.com/PARABOL...BOLICSALE.html. Hope this will help you.
