THERMAL POWER STATION Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: in proposed thermal power station containing steam generator, steam turbine, electric generator, and condenser, well tubes are arranged in vertical plane in lower layers of Earth's crust and are made to release thermal energy from lower layers of Earth's crust and receive renewable thermal energy. Tubes of well are installed under sea or ocean bottom in deep water chutes or cracks of Earth's crust or cavities on sea bottom or land. Well tubes can be arranged on sea bottom or land in parallel rows or in form of rectangular rings or spirals, shuttle, stars or radially. Tubes are connected in pairs at angle. Tubes connected to each other form together with pumps, turbine, condenser and deaerator, a closed system. Pump, turbine, generator, vacuum pump are installed on platform under bell housing. Platform is rigidly and hermetically connected with belt housing. Outer surfaces of turbine and condenser are provided with thermal elements of thermoelectric generator. Condenser is combined with platform, being made in form of vertical and horizontal communicating tubes connected with vacuum pump and vacuum regulator. Deaerator is provided with liquid level regulator.

EFFECT: reduced cost and consumption of materials at production of cheap renewable fuel, conversion of heat into electric energy.
