<p>Disclosed are methods and apparatus for a thermochemical closed cycle employing a polyatomic, chemically active working fluid for converting heat energy into useful work. The working fluid is dissociated in a compressor (10), a recuperative heat exchanger (30) and an external heater (50). The working fluid is recombined in a prime mover (60), the recuperative heat exchanger (30) and an air heater for the external heater (50).</p> |
