摘要： Backup energy systems utilizing compressed air storage (CAS) systems and bridging energy systems to supply backup power to a load are provided. During a power failure, the bridging energy system provides backup power to the load at least until the CAS system begins supplying adequate power. In various embodiments, backup power capability is enhanced through the use of one or more exhaustless heaters, which are used to heat compressed air. The compressed air, in turn, drives a turbine which is used to power an electrical generator. In various embodiments, ambient air heat exchangers or other types of heat exchangers are used to heat compressed air prior to the compressed air being routed to the turbine, thereby increasing system efficiency. Backup power and backup HVAC are also provided by utilizing turbine exhaust, heat exchangers and various resistive heating elements.

摘要： Uninterruptible power is supplied to a load connected to a power line by connecting the power line to a rotatable member that includes a Rankine cycle turbine coupled to a device that operates as a motor when line power is operative thereby rotating the member at a standby rotational speed so that a predetermined amount of kinetic energy is stored in the rotating member, and that operates as a generator when the line power is inoperative and the member is rotated by the application of vaporized working fluid to the turbine. Working fluid is vaporized and maintained at an operational temperature level only when the line power is inoperative. The working fluid is held at a standby temperature level, preferably greater than the operational temperature level, while the power line is operative whereby the working fluid contains a predetermined amount of stored thermal energy while the power line is operative. In response to loss of line power, vaporized working fluid is applied to the turbine thereby rotating the rotatable member whereby the turbine rotates the member at a nominal operational speed that preferably is less than the standby rotational speed. Finally, in response to the loss of line power the device is connected to the load whereby the stored thermal energy in the working fluid and the stored kinetic energy in the rotating member are converted by the device to power for the load.

摘要： In a vehicle designed so that a driven wheel is driven by uniting an output from an engine and an output from a Rankine cycle system to each other, an accelerator pedal and a throttle valve are connected electrically to each other by a DBW control unit. When an accelerator opening degree (nullap) commanded by a driver is increased, a throttle opening degree (nullth) is increased by a correcting amount (nullnullth) more than a value proportional to the accelerator opening degree (nullap), thereby compensating for an output shortage due to a response delay of the output from the Rankine cycle system. When the accelerator opening degree (nullap) commanded by the driver is decreased, the throttle opening degree (nullth) is decreased by the correcting amount (nullnullth) more than the value proportional to the accelerator opening degree (nullap), thereby compensating for an output excessiveness due to the response delay of the output from the Rankine cycle system.

摘要： In a method for preventing the deposition of impurities in steam systems, in which steam of a given steam quality flowing in them is subject to temperature and/or pressure changes, a simple prevention of deposits is achieved in that an appropriate structural configuration and design of the steam systems prevents the steam solubility of the impurities present in specific concentrations in the steam from being exceeded as a result of changes in the temperature and/or pressure conditions.
