    Abstract: A heat pump includes a first portion for evaporating a working fluid at a first pressure, for compressing the evaporated working fluid to a second, higher pressure, and for liquefying the compressed working fluid within a liquefier, and a second portion for compressing liquid working fluid to a third pressure, which is higher than the second pressure, for evaporating the working fluid compressed to the third pressure, for relaxing the evaporated working fluid to a pressure, which is lower than the third pressure, so as to generate electrical current, and for liquefying relaxed evaporated working fluid within the liquefier.

    Abstract: A switching power supply includes a plurality of parallel branches, each parallel branch including two serially connected controllable switches and a coil connected between the two switches and an output node, a capacitor connected between the output node of the parallel branches and ground; and a controller configured to switch the two serially connected controllable switches of each parallel branch such that a first switch of a parallel branch is switched from a conducting state to a non-conducting state when a current flowing through a coil of the parallel branch reaches a first current value larger than 5 A, and such that the second switch is switched from a conducting state to a non-conducting state when the current flowing through the coil of the parallel branch reaches a second current value smaller than 0 A.

    Abstract: A thermodynamic device includes a first liquid container configured to maintain a first pressure during operation, the first liquid container being partially filled with a working fluid during operation, a second liquid container configured to maintain a second pressure during operation, the second pressure being higher than the first pressure, the second liquid container being partially filled with the working fluid during operation; and a compensation pipe permeable to the working fluid and including an inlet arranged within the second liquid container so as to define, during operation, a working fluid level within the second liquid container, and including an outlet arranged within the first liquid container so that working fluid can be transported from the inlet into the outlet, the inlet being arranged to be higher up than the outlet in the installation direction.

    Abstract: A heat pump has an evaporator for evaporating water as a working liquid so as to produce a working vapor, the evaporation taking place at an evaporation pressure of less than 20 hPa. The working vapor is compressed to a working pressure of at least 25 hPa by a dynamic-type compressor so as to then be liquefied within a liquefier by direct contact with liquefier water. The heat pump is preferably an open system, wherein water present in the environment in the form of ground water, sea water, river water, lake water or brine is evaporated, and wherein water which has been liquefied again is fed to the evaporator, to the soil or to a water treatment plant.
