A thermodynamic closed hydraulic electric generating system consisting of
pressurized tanks, containing gas and liquid volumes interconnected by
pipes. The system has a minimum of two tanks, one for heating and one for
cooling. The heating source is solar, thermal or chemical. One tank is
heated while the other is cooled, causing a significant pressure
difference between the two tanks. Once one tank is heated to its optimum
temperature and the other is cooled to its lowest temperature, a pressure
valve is activated opening a regulated gate valve allowing the liquid in
the higher pressure tank to flow through the connecting pipes and through
a generator to the tank with the lower pressure and generating electric
power. Liquid flow will occur until the tanks' pressure system equalizes,
then the system is reversed. Tanks are heated by solar energy by
parabolic mirrors and cooled by liquid/gas. Heat sinks promote
heating/cooling.
