Heat Converter to Mechanical Motion

Heat Converter to Mechanical Motion

Summary:

The conversion of kinetic energy to heat was discovered by Homo erectus by rubbing two pieces of wood, the rapid rotation can ignite dry grass. This discovery marked a turning point in prehistory; humans differ from other species then. By converting the kinetic energy of its action resulting from the heat, about 400,000 years ago...

 Since that, we never managed to make inverse. That mean, heat to mechanical motion. All we have done up today, is transformation one kind of motion to another one which is more operational.

Examples: Waterwheels, water mills, windmills, water turbine, wind turbine, steam engines, combustion engines, gas turbines...

Wanting to assert that, an air conditioner must provide power to replace a part of calories subtracted from its environment; today this statement will be assimilated to a utopian, esoteric, obscure even a crazy's allegation. So it may becomes a banal truism, when it is done…

However if we bare the thermodynamic processes, removed the practical methods obsolete, entered to the processes that have proven their efficiency in the electrodynamic practices, exemple: (Power Factor correction capacitors)

Heat converter to Mechanical Motion.       

This task may be performed by deposition of the three Elements, Which contain as part of a whole.

•          Heat above 297 ° Kelvin.
•         A heat pump with good COP,  . Energy Efficiency Ratio, EERarranged for these uses.
•         *A closed-cycle, device used by OTEC or any similar one.

Operation:

   1.             Compressor (7) is fed by imported energy, in starting cycle and when energy of turbine (3) is inadequate.

2.    The fluid or steam flowing in the circuit 1, goes out after have let a part its calories.

3.    Boiler (2) is heated by circuit (1) and condenser (8), together drives the Turbine (3).

4.    Turbine's output vapors are condensed in tank (5), cooling is bringing by Evaporator (10) and helped by cooled fluid (11).

5. Circuit (11) towards 10) has a duty as a loss corrector, similar to capacitors correction of Power Factor, in electrical applications… 

6. The cooling evaporator (10) is turbine’s main condensing device in starting cycle, it become supportive to circuit (11) in normal functions.

7.      Heats generated by compressor (7) are recycled by heat exchanger in boiler (2) to drive turbine.

1: Heat bring, 2: Boiler and thermal exchanger, 3: Vapor Turbine, 4: Alternator, 5: Condensing tank, 6: Fluid pump, 7: Compressor, 8: Condenser and recycled compressor’s heats, 9 regulators, 10: Evaporator, 11 Recycled cooling fluid, 12 Electricity output.

Note:  Compressor 7, Condenser 8, regulators 9, Evaporator 10 are principal components of most, usual Air conditioners, Heat pumps, Freezers, Refrigerators…

* Closed-cycle OTEC uses working fluids that are typically thought of as refrigerants such as ammonia or R-134a. These fluids have low boiling points, and are therefore suitable for powering the system’s generator to generate electricity. The most commonly used heat cycle for OTEC to date is the Rankine cycle, using a low-pressure turbine. (Wikipedia)
