SOLAR ENERGY POWERED AIR-CONDITIONING AND REFRIGERATOR SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A solar powered air conditioner and refrigerator system, comprising:
- a solar absorber heat generator to be exposed to sunlight;
a continuous cycle absorption refrigerator inside an adjacent building;
piping connecting the outdoor solar absorber heat generator in fluid communication;
a refrigerant grade anhydrous ammonia solution circulating b in the piping between the solar absorber heat generator and the continuous cycle absorption refrigerator;
a control panel in electrical communication with at least two sensors, including an outdoor thermostat sensor and an indoor thermostat sensor;
a linear Fresnel lens located above the solar absorber heat generator to concentrate solar energy; and
a sun tracker mounted to the Fresnel lens for continuously orienting the Fresnel lens toward the sun to provide maximum solar absorption.

Abstract
A solar powered air conditioner and/or refrigerator system includes a solar absorber heat generator to be exposed to sunlight in communication with a continuous cycle absorption refrigerator inside an adjacent building. Piping connects the out door solar absorber heat generator in fluid communication between the continuous cycle absorption refrigerator and the solar absorber heat generator. Refrigerant grade anhydrous ammonia solution circulates in that piping. A control panel with at least two sensors, an out door thermostat sensor and an indoor thermostat sensor, are in electrical communication. A linear Fresnel lens is located above the solar absorber heat generator to concentrate solar energy. A sun tracker may also be mounted to the Fresnel lens for continuously orienting the Fresnel lens toward the sun to provide maximum solar absorption.
