📌The array of mirrors focuses the sunlight the concentrated sunlight then heats up the working fluid to temp of around 750˚C with in the receiver.
📌The heated high temp working fluid is then used in either a Stirling or Brayton heat engine cycle to produce mechanical power via rational kinetic energy and then electricity for utility use with an electric generator.
📌When the starter of the engine is switched on by the operator, the external heat energy source starts. (Intensity of which can be controlled by the operator through a provided mechanism).
📌After starting the heat source the heat is transferred from heat source to the hot cylinder walls, which in turn raises the temperature of the gas inside the hot cylinder due to which disturbance in the molecules of the gas occurs because of the kinetic energy provided by increased temperature.
📌This disturbance increases the molecular pressure over the surface of the piston inside the hot cylinder in order to expand the gas, which in turn pushes the piston away for the expansion.
📌When the piston moves away i.e. from TDC to BDC due to the expansion provided by the hot gas the crank shaft rotates which is considered to be the work output.
📌When this hot cylinder piston moves from BDC to TDC due to which the cold cylinder piston moves from TDC to BDC, the hot piston starts pushing the hot gas into the cold cylinder for cooling.
📌The cooling system associated with the cold cylinder instantly cools the entering hot gases from the hot cylinder. From TDC to BDC.
📌Which in turn compressing the cold gas inside the cold cylinder due to which the cold gas moves from cold cylinder to the hot cylinder for the further cycles.
