    摘要: A two stroke steam-to-vacuum engine comprises a first cylinder (12) having a first piston (16), a first piston rod (18), and a first steam chamber (24), and a second cylinder (14) having a second piston (30), a second piston rod (32), and a second steam chamber (38). Each piston is reciprocally moveable between an expanded position and a collapsed position. Admission of steam at atmospheric pressure into the steam chambers (24, 38) is controlled by steam valves (52, 54) and exposure of the steam chambers (24, 38) to a vacuum is controlled by vacuum valves (56, 58). The piston rods (18, 32) are fixed for simultaneous reciprocation such that a power stroke in one cylinder produces a steam intake stroke in the other cylinder. Steam to the steam chambers (24, 38) is supplied through a steam reservoir (42) and a solar power source (44), from a boiler, a fuel of choice, or a variety of alternate sources of heat.

    摘要: This invention, a waste heat recycling thermal power plant (1000), extracts heat from the environment, and concentrates this heat to produce a cfc super-ambient temperature heat source (1330) having an elevated temperature sufficient to supply a useable heat flow to an incorporated heat engine (e.g., Rankine cycle, Stirling cycle, Seebeck cycle, etc.) flow circuit (1400). Further, waste heat recycling thermal power plant (1000) produces an sfc sub-ambient temperature heat sink (1250), thus increasing the applied temperature differential, thereby permitting the thermal efficiency of ihefc pressure expansion device (1460) to be increased as well. Lastly, waste heat recycling thermal power plant (1000) captures for reuse, much of the waste heat that its own operation liberates, thus lowering its net energy utilization per unit of mechanical power produced (a.k.a., heat rate, Btu/kwhr). In the main embodiment of its use, waste heat recycling thermal power plant (1000) would be used as the driver for a mod driven mechanical device (1520), specifically an electrical generator. Deriving its source heat by intercepting the heat that would be rejected to the environment by an electrical power generating station's cooling device, and routing this heat to waste heat recycling thermal power plant (1000). Then converting this heat to mechanical power, and subsequently to electrical power. This would result in an improvement of the electrical power generating station's net electrical power generating capacity and fuel efficiency, while simultaneously reducing the quantity of thermal (and potentially chemical) pollution released to the environment.

    摘要: In order to effectively extract the waste heat from a reciprocating engine, the normal heat exchanger components of an engine are replaced with one or more heat exchangers which have the motive fluid of an organic rankine cycle system flowing therethrough. With the heat transfer in the plurality of heat exchangers, the engine is maintained at a reasonable cool temperature and the extracted heat is supplied to an ORC turbine to generate power. The heat is derived from a plurality of sources within the reciprocating engine, and at least two of those sources have their fluids passing through the same heat exchanger. In one embodiment, the engine coolant and the engine lubricant pass through the heat exchanger in the same direction, and the ORC motive fluid passes therethrough in a counterflow relationship.

    摘要: The method of the invention consists in storing and redelivering energy in the form of compressed air under a constant pressure by hydraulically compensating for pressure variations in a reservoir by permanently connecting the reservoir to a lake and by dissipating energy of air dissolved in water by reducing the concentration of the air in the water by communicating the lower portion of a conduit, which contains gasified water, with nongasified water from the lake whereby to block the flow of gasified water completely through the conduit. Furthermore, a plant of the invention uses a well containing a conduit on which is mounted a unidirectional valve for achieving the dilution.

    摘要: A combined steam-high temperature water generating system includes a heated water generating vessel for delivering both steam and high temperature water to delivery circuits therefor. A portion of the heated water is continuously supplied to one or several forced circulation steam boilers which evaporate part, and only part of the throughput water flow. The return flow from the boiler or boilers to the vessel thus comprises a steam-high temperature water mixture. The system accommodates varying relative consumption demands for steam vis.-a-vis. high temperature water. Also, a chemical balance is maintained between the steam and heated water subsystem components by reason of the continuous water recirculation between the boiler or boilers and vessel. Further, the multifunctional use of the common heated water generating vessel renders the system amenable to ready fabrication.
