THERMAL-COMPRESION FACILITY Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC F17C5/06 F04B19/24 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: thermal-compression facility consists of source of gas under high pressure supplied to vessels-compressors via gas supply main, of installation for thermo-cycling vessels-compressors from reservoirs with different temperature with heat exchanger in low temperature reservoir communicated with source of cold, and of actuator of heat carrier circulation. The heat exchanger is made as a coil located inside the low-temperature reservoir; a pipe of the coil is double wound with a high conductive material, external surface of which has ribs in form of spiral or lamellar ribs along the total length of the tube. The heat carrier circulation actuator corresponds to an immersed screw-like mixer enclosed with a cylinder shell; at the output of it there is arranged a conic diffuser with an even circular flanging.

EFFECT: raised efficiency, and reduced time of filling due to efficient heat exchanging at chilldown of vessels-compressors in low temperature reservoir.
