PROCESS OF CONVERSION OF THERMAL KINETIC ENERGY OF FLOWS OF HUMID AIR AND GEAR FOR ITS REALIZATION Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: restored ecologically pure sources of generation of effective (electrical, mechanical) energy and sweet water. SUBSTANCE: technical result of invention consists in enhanced efficiency of generation of effective energy and production of sweet water in wide range of ambient temperatures. Process consists in preliminary heating of flow of humid air passed through fixed cross-section, in formation of first electric field transverse to flow of humid air and high-potential by level of ionization of steam, in conducting ionization and formation of ions and steam charges in flow of humid air. Then second potential electric field is formed with fixed deviation angle of flow of ions and steam charges upwards along vertical line and to the left and to the right along horizontal line from conventional vertical line of flow of humid air, gravitational-electrical separation and removal of ionized flow of steam beyond limits of dry air are carried out. Later first preliminary and second compensating heating of ionized flow of steam are executed, steam forced supply to heat-absorbing surface, neutralization of its charge, concentration, condensation and collection of sweet water are realized, condensation heat of flow is extracted and transferred for conversion of its energy to electric energy. Gear for realization of given process has air conduit, heat exchangers, water tank, pump with heat transfer agent, fan, pipe-lines, heat-to-electric energy converter, unit for preliminary heating of flow of humid air, ionization unit, unit deviating ionized flow of steam, source and unit of compensating heating, temperature controller and chamber-collector of ionized flow of steam. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of generation of effective energy and production of sweet water. 18 cl, 8 dwg, 2 tbl
