MECHANICAL ENERGY GENERATION PROCESS Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: power engineering; development of power plants and generation of mechanical energy. SUBSTANCE: fluid is passed under pressure from peripheral area to hydraulic motor and rotated together with vessel; heat is supplied in first heat exchanger which is turned together with vessel and hydraulic motor; heat transfer is effected in second heat exchanger. Condensed fluid is fully or partially returned to vessel. Second heat exchanger may be allowed to rotate together with other parts of plant in which case it is spaced from axis of revolution at a distance shorter than hydraulic motor and first heat exchanger. EFFECT: facilitated procedure. 4 cl, 1 dwg
