HELIUM HEAT REGENERATOR WITH FLUID HEAT-CARRIER FOR HELIUM HEAT POWER STATIONS Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F24J2/34 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to solar power engineering. The helium heat regenerator with fluid heat-carrier for helium heat power stations includes a heat-retaining vessel placed, at least, partially, in foundation of the soil surface ditch, filled mainly with crushed stone as heat-retaining material, with bottom, walls and top covering of said thermal energy storage canister made of rigid foamy heat-insulating material, air or water being used as a transportable heat-carrier. On the heat-insulating top covering of the heat-retaining vessel, helium absorbing boxes are placed in whose internal cavity air or water circulates as a heat-carrier, each box being covered from above with the second one - transparent heat-insulating box containing closed heat-insulating aerial environment which is pumped over by a heat loss recycling system through the heat retaining vessel, or other thermodynamic installations. Helium absorbing boxes are heat-insulated from environment by transparent material. According to individual versions of the invention, said boxes have pyramid-shaped external helium concentrator placed on them, with its lateral faces covering technological passages made therebetween which also can be used for growing plants. Other vessels with the similar equipment and additional helium absorbing boxes on heat insulated supports are placed in parallel to the heat-retaining vessel directly in/on the ground, with technological passages being made between them. The above-mentioned passages can be used for growing plants as well as for accommodating facilities intended for both power and economic purposes. The heat-retaining vessels are supplied with circulating channels through which their thermal energy is transmitted for its intended technological purpose, including means of thermal and electric energy production. The helium heat regenerator allows for producing thermal energy for helium heat power stations in allocated area with high technical and economic performances and is created as a typical basic technological facility to be widely constructed at a high commercial and consumer efficiency, and can also be constructed as an environmentally safe and economically effective helium boiler.

EFFECT: production of thermal energy for helium heat power stations in allocated area with high technical and economic performances.
