In essence this PATENT is based on several variants of the RANKINE-HIRN CYCLE (1,2,3,4,5,6,1),(fig.1) generally employed in VAPOR DRIVEN POWER PLANTS. We have DEMONSTRATED (fig.1) that the first SIDE (1,2) is NOT (as one might EXPECT) found in the LIQUID ZONE (L) but on the first curve of EQUAL CONCENTRATION (AC),(x=0), of (ACBA). Moreover, the WORK (enclosed area) does NOT depend upon the ENTHALPY (H1) of the LIQUID (M'), and so may be TRANSLATED upwards on the curve (AC),(x=0), in order to obtain a HEAT GAIN (from high to low temperature) with a consequent INCREASE in EFFICIENCY from 30- 40% in HEAT ENGINES (fig.3) to a UNITARY VALUE (?=1) in DISTILLERS (fig.5) where the condensation energy may be completely RECYCLED. In these HIRN-ENTHALPIC-CYCLES (figs 3,5) HEAT and WORK (enclosed area) are EXACT DIFFERENTIALS (State Functions) incompatible with the SECOND LAW of THERMODYNAMICS. |
