<p>The heat compressor generates power, using ambient air as the heat-transfer medium, and is connected by a pipe to an engine. In this pipe between the compressor (1) and the engine (8) is a heater chamber (6,7), to which the air delivers heat, the volume of this air being increased by a water injector (9,16,17) discharging into the chamber. A heat exchanger (10) in the pipe (6b) from the chamber to the engine extracts the energy in the air as useful heat before it enters the engine, the drive of the compressor and the engine being coupled. The circuit between the compressor and engine is controlled by inlet and outlet valves, preferably to meet the volume increase.</p> |
