ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Method and apparatus for generating power which includes a closed loop path through which a working fluid is circulated is disclosed. The circulation path includes a prime mover, such as a turbine, to which operating fluid in the vapor state is supplied from an evaporation chamber which is partically filled with oper- ating liquid. A condenser is located within the operating li- quid within the evaporation chamber adjacent the bottom of the chamber, through which condenser working vapor discharged from the turbine is passed for cooling the vapor to condense the same, with the heat of vaporzation passing from the vapor into the opera- ting liquid within the evaporation chamber. Operating liquid from the condenser is pumped through heating means, such as a solar collector, for heating the liquid without vaporizing the same. The heated working liquid from the heating means is passed into the evaporation chamber for vaporization thereof. Heat in operating liquid within the evaporation chamber is ab- sorbed as heat of vaporization by the evaporating operating liquid to cool operating liquid in the evaporation chamber. The cold operating liquid at the bottom of the chamber facilitates removal of heat from the turbine exhaust through the condenser at the bottom of the chamber. The turbine may be used to drive a genertor which, in turn, may supply electrical energy to an electrical motor. The system is well adapted for use with a vehicle, wherein a solor collector is mounted on the vehicle roof for use in heating the working fluid.
