Abstract

A solar heat powered system has a circuit for a heat transfer medium and at least one spur line that branches off from the circuit for the heat transfer medium. There is at least one expansion container connected to the at least one spur line. The spur line has a cooling element that has an enlarged surface at least in sections.

Claims

1. A solar heat powered system comprising:

a circuit for a heat transfer medium;

at least one spur line that branches off from the circuit for the heat transfer medium; and

at least one expansion container connected to the at least one spur line,

wherein said at least one spur line has a cooling element comprising an enlarged surface at least in sections.

2. The solar heat powered system according to claim 1, wherein a section of the spur line is designed in coils and forms the cooling element.

3. The solar heat powered system according to claim 1, wherein a section of the spur line is designed as a ribbed tube and forms the cooling element.

4. The solar heat powered system according to claim 1, wherein the spur line is connected directly to the circuit.

5. The solar heat powered system according to claim 1, wherein the spur line is connected to a feed line of the circuit.

6. The solar heat powered system according to claim 1, wherein the spur line is connected to the circuit in a spatial area of a solar station, and wherein the solar station encompasses components for conveying the medium or for controlling the system.

7. The solar heat powered system according to claim 6, wherein the cooling element is assigned to the solar station.

8. The solar heat powered system according to claim 6, wherein the solar station is arranged on the section of the spur line forming the cooling element.

9. The solar heat powered system according to claim 7, wherein the cooling element and the solar station are located in one housing.
