    摘要: A method for improvement of a fossil fuel energy conversion into electrical energy for the simple sub—and supercritical steam cycle is disclosed through introduction of additional regenerative cycle duties to improve the evaporation rate per unit of fuel burned, thus minimizing condenser heat loss of the working media. The additional duties provide a supplemental energy credit in the form of heat input to a steam generator where a modified combustion process is realized to convert fossil fuel into carbon monoxide and hydrogen at atmospheric pressure and thus achieving an essential reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) formation. The additional duties also involve a direct contact heat transfer to recover latent and thermal energy, contained in the discharged combustion products to provide yet another energy credit that satisfies both conventional and/or added regenerative cycle duties. A water surplus is also achieved in the said process of heat recovery from the combustion products to significantly improve water usage of the simple steam plant. The disclosed heat recovery process also minimizes coolant usage while achieving a complete water recovery from combustion products and maintaining draft capabilities in the stack.

    摘要: A heat regenerative engine uses water as both the working fluid and the lubricant. In operation, water is pumped from a collection pan and through a coil around a cylinder exhaust port, causing the water to be preheated by steam exhausted from the cylinder. The preheated water then enters a steam generator and is heated by a combustion chamber to produce high pressure super heated steam. Air is preheated in a heat exchanger and is then mixed with fuel from a fuel atomizer. An igniter burns the atomized fuel as the flames and heat are directed in a centrifuge within the combustion chamber. The speed and torque of the engine are controlled by a rocker and cam arrangement which opens a needle-type valve to inject high pressure super heated steam into a cylinder having a reciprocating piston therein. The injected steam expands in an explosive action on the top of the piston at high pressure forcing the piston down and drivingly rotating a linked crank cam and crankshaft. Exhaust steam is directed through a centrifugal condenser having an arrangement of flat plates. Cooling air from blowers circulates through the flat plates to condense the steam to a liquid state. The water condensation is returned to the collection pan for subsequent use in steam generation.

    摘要: A thermal storage unit having at least one annular flow channel formed between an inner and outer member is provided. The thermal storage unit uses conventional mill products to create annular flow channels that economically maximize the surface area of flow in contact with the thermal mass included in the inner and outer members. This enables the thermal storage unit to economically provide heat storage as well as effective heat delivery and pressure containment for a fluid flowing through the annular channel.

    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 a thermal potential 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 thermal potential, 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. 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: A thermal storage unit having at least one annular flow channel formed between an inner and outer member is provided. The thermal storage unit uses conventional mill products to create annular flow channels that are coupled to each other via transverse channels for allowing various fluid routing arrangements and piping connections, and that economically maximize the surface area of flow in contact with the thermal mass included in the inner and outer members. This enables the thermal storage unit to economically provide heat storage as well as effective heat delivery and pressure containment for a fluid flowing through the annular channel. The thermal storage unit's size and shape are optimized and its performance enhanced by providing features for maintaining the position of the inner member within the outer member, features for providing support for the unit, and insulation.
