Latest Patents
Yogev holds a patent for a "Solar augmented wind turbine for stable and dispatchable utility scale power generation." This invention describes a novel integration between wind and solar thermal renewable energy technologies. The existing wind turbine, consisting of a hub and blades, is operated by the power generated from a waterless solar thermal system that utilizes high pressure, high temperature air during periods of low wind availability. The solar thermal system includes a heliostat field, solar air receiver panels, a thermal energy storage tank, and a Pelton wheel assembly system for converting thermal energy of air into kinetic energy of the power shaft of the wind turbine. The thermal energy converting system features a plurality of supersonic air nozzles acting as stators, producing supersonic air jets that interact with a rotating Pelton wheel. A thermal storage system provides means for energy dispatchability. The proposed integrated system is capable of generating stable renewable energy with minimal intermittency.
