An active gas regenerative refrigerator includes a plurality of compressor-expander units, each having a hermetic cylinder with a drive piston configured to be driven reciprocally therein, and a quantity of working fluid in each end of the cylinder. A piston seal in a central portion of the cylinder prevents passage of the working fluid between ends of the cylinder. Movement of the piston to a first extreme results in radial compression of one of the quantities of working fluid in a cylindrical gap formed between one end of the piston and an inner surface of the cylinder, while the other quantity is expanded in the opposite end of the cylinder. The piston includes a plurality of magnets arranged in pairs, with magnets of each pair positioned with like-poles facing each other. A piston drive is configured to couple with transverse magnetic flux regions formed by the magnets.

The extrusion device of a solid film comprises a cell provided with an input opening of a material designed to form the solid film, and an output opening of the solid film from the cell. The device comprises a first heat exchanger for applying a first temperature to the output opening and a second heat exchanger for applying a second temperature in a first zone of the cell distinct from the output opening and a control circuit imposing first and second sets of first and second temperatures. The first set enables a volume of the material in solid phase to be formed. The second set enables a temperature gradient to be generated in the volume so as to generate a pressure forcing extrusion of the solid film via the output opening.

This invention presents improved combustion methods, systems, engines and apparatus utilizing H2, O2 and H2O as fuel, thereby providing environmentally friendly combustion products, as well as improved fuel and energy management methods, systems, engines and apparatus. The Water Combustion Technology; WCT, is based upon water (H2O) chemistry, more specifically H2O combustion chemistry and thermodynamics. WCT does not use any hydrocarbon fuel source, rather the WCT uses H2 preferably with O2 and secondarily with air. The WCT significantly improves the thermodynamics of combustion, thereby significantly improving the efficacy of combustion, utilizing the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The WCT preferably controls combustion temperature with H2O and secondarily with air in the combustion chamber. The WCT preferably recycles exhaust gases as fuel converted from water. The WCT minimizes external cooling loops and minimizes exhaust and/or exhaust energy, thereby maximizing available work and internal energy while minimizing enthalpy and entropy losses.

A method for cooling a product (P) including N ordered adsorption/desorption cycles (100, 200, 300), each cycle having the following steps: expanding a refrigerant in liquid phase from a condenser (101, 201, 301) inside an evaporator (103, 203, 303) for evaporating at least one portion of the refrigerant, and; adsorbing this refrigerant in vapor phase inside at least one adsorption/desorption chamber (120, 220, 320) containing a zeolite adsorbent (Z) whereby cooling a remaining portion of the refrigerant in the evaporator to a predetermined low temperature, the low temperature decreasing from one cycle to the next. The method also includes the following steps: effecting N-1 heat exchanges each time the refrigerant enters the evaporator (103, 203) of a cycle and each time the refrigerant enters the condenser (201, 301) of the following cycle for condensing the refrigerant in the condenser.
摘要:
A system and process for liquefying or storing gases at low temperatures using a cold recovery system. The system and process includes a cold recovery system having at least one cold recovery vessel configured to receive a gas stream and cool the gas stream by passing the gas stream through a cold recovery vessel. The cold recovery vessels includes a cold recovery material configured to cool the cooled gas stream, wherein the gas stream is fed through the cold recovery vessel through a pipe immersed in the cold recovery material to produce a liquefied or low temperature gas. The liquefied or low temperature gas is stored in a liquid or low temperature state in a storage tank. When the liquefied or low temperature gas is released from the storage tank, the gas vaporizes or expands through the pipe and cools the cold recovery material.
