PURPOSE:To increase heat exchange efficiency by a method wherein a disc is attached to a driving shaft connected to a wind-mill or the like and a disc brake, energized by a liquid pressure generating device connected to a follower shaft, is dipped into liquid utilized for a heat medium together with the disc. CONSTITUTION:The driving shaft is connected to the rotating shaft of the wind mill 1, supported rotatably on a supporting table 2, through a gear mechanism 5. The follower shaft is provided at the intermediate part of the driving shaft 4 through the gear mechanism 5 while the follower shaft is provided with a liquid pump 8 through a coupling 7. The inlet side of the liquid pump 8 is connected to a liquid tank 9 while the outlet side thereof is branched into two paths, and one of them is connected to a brake liquid pressure pipeline system 12, being connected to the disc brake 11 in the liquid tank 9, through a booster 10 while the other of them is connected to a a heat exchanging pipeline system 14 comming back to the liquid tank 9 through a heat exchanger 13. The disc 15 is attached to the lower end of the driving shaft 4 and is assembled into the disc brake 11. Friction heat is generated by sliding contact between the disc 15 and the disc brake 11 to heat the liquid in the liquid tank 9. |
