摘要:
An improved efficiency method and device for converting thermal energy into mechanical energy, and then, preferably, into electricity and/or refrigerating energy. A partially liquid stream fc0 of fluid FC is implemented; thermal energy is transferred to the stream fc0; the heated stream fc0 is sprayed to generate a fragmented stream fc1 of fluid FC. Simultaneously a partially liquid stream ft0 of fluid FT is implemented; thermal energy is transferred to the stream ft0 to generate a stream ft that may be in liquid form or a saturated liquid/vapor mixture; stream f1 is expanded in a chamber which also receives fragmented stream fc1 to form a two-phase mixed stream fc1/t whose kinetic energy is converted into mechanical energy which is optionally transformed into electrical energy or into refrigerating energy.

The invention relates to a method and apparatus for low temperature waste heat utilization. In the scope of the cogeneration unit (CHP) there are few low temperature sources, which cannot be used by heat consumer (HC) directly. Hence, the method and apparatus for cogeneration power plant waste heat recovery comprise at least one, preferably condensing type heat exchanger (HE2), which collects the waste heat for water source high temperature heat pump (HP) employment, wherein its hot water outlet is fed to the internal combustion engine (ICE) cooling system, i.e. cooling jacket type heat exchanger, wherein the maximum allowed coolant inlet temperature is achieved and maintained by automated control system (i.e. control unit with motorized control valves (V1-V3)). It is important to notice, that low temperature sources are herein represented by the exhaust gas in the scope of exhaust system, the charging air in the scope of the intercooler or turbo-supercharger, and lubrication oil cooling system in the scope of internal combustion engine (ICE) or heat pump (HP).

A power generating system includes a flow dividing structure, a first detector, a flow dividing adjusting valve, a heat accumulator, a heat exchanger and a turbine. The flow dividing structure divides a first heat medium into a first flow path and a second flow path. The first detector detects a flow rate of the first heat medium. The flow dividing adjusting valve opens the second flow path when the flow rate of the first heat medium exceeds a predetermined value. The heat accumulator accumulates the first heat medium via the second flow path and delivers the first heat medium at a temporally leveled flow rate. The heat exchanger transfers heat from the first heat medium to a second heat medium having a lower boiling point than the first heat medium. The turbine rotationally moves by the second heat medium with heat having been transferred by the heat exchanging unit.
摘要:
Systems and methods for selectively producing steam from solar collectors and heaters are disclosed. A method in accordance with a particular embodiment includes directing a flow of water to a solar collector, directing the flow of water to a gas-fired heater, and, as a result of heating the flow of water at the solar collector and the gas-fired heater, forming steam from the flow of water. The method further includes changing a sequence by which at least a portion of the flow passes through the solar collector and the gas-fired heater.
