The Floating Solar Chimney Technology

Abstract

This paper is tool to harness some part of solar energy for power generation. Due to greenhouse effect, the air is warmed in solar collector .The warm air is moving from the periphery of solar collector to its centre of the chimney. This moving stream of warm air leaves part of its thermodynamic energy to air turbines that are geared with electric generators. It can operate 24 hours per day and 365 days per year eliminating the co2 emission and reducing global warming mainly in the desert and semi-desert areas.
Keywords- Greenhouse effect; solar chimney; solar collector; air turbines; electric generator a floating solar chimney power station.
