HEAT-USING DEVICE Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: power engineering, in particular, thermocompressors. SUBSTANCE: the device uses a receiver of low-grade heat, accelerating heat-gas-dynamic unit, heat energy-to-electric energy converter, which is made as a thermocompressor in the form of an annual duct, in which the accelerating heat-gas-dynamic unit is a combination Laval nozzle having upstream an inlet with fans for supply and agitation of warm and cold air, corona arrester, subcritical part with a window used to feed supercooled air and an additional corona arrester, supersonic part changing into a dielectric duct of the electrogasdynamic generator - gas-expansion machine with external load electric supply circuits; corona arresters and starting high-voltage sources; the duct of the electrogasdynamic generator - gas-expansion machine, as a part of the annular duct, has a condensate receiver with an electromagnetic shaking unit and is divided into three parallel ducts supplying supercooled air with the aid of the fans first of all to the subcritical section, then to the external user and further to the inlet of the Laval nozzle, and for starting provision is made for a cylinder compressed-air manifold. EFFECT: improved design. 1 dwg
