Abstract
A solar generator includes a chamber in the form of a half tee-pee having a chimney-like outlet at an upper end thereof. An air turbine is mounted within the outlet and is coupled to an electric generator. Air inlet tubes are provided at the base of the structure. As air within the chamber is heated by the sun, it rises and passes, at an increased velocity due to the Venturi effect, through the turbine causing the blades thereof to turn.
