Free Energy from Air a Layman's explanation.
Lets see how this technology meets the criteria for
practicality.
What we are calling practical is a unit that takes energy from
the air 24 hours per day or night. 365 days and nights a year.
To produce up to 50,000 kilowatts of free electricity per year
at the retail cost of about $12,000 including a hot box thermal
storage system for backup power.
In addition to producing free
electricity it does it harmlessly with no pollution,toxic waste
or damage to the environment.
The first thing you need to know about a heat pump works "is the
first law of thermal dynamics".
It says that a hotter substance
will give its heat to a cooler substance until the two equalize
in temperature.
A heat pump uses a very cold liquid like freon
and exposes it to the environment in flat plate collectors.
These liquids are so cold they boil at 40 degrees F below zero.
This means that because of the first law of thermal
dynamics,anything in the environment that touches this liquid in
those flat plate collectors, is going to give up it heat to that
liquid.
Is there anything in the environment that you can think of that
is colder than 40 degrees f below zero? Sun? Rain? Wind? It may
get pretty cold,but even the snow has heat to give up to the
refrigerant.
If snow is 32 degree F above zero and the refrigerant boils at
40 degree f below that means there is 72 degree worth of heat
that can be removed from the snow.
There is a limitless supply
of molecules outside warm enough to continually boil the
refrigerant.
So just by exposing refrigerant to the air
through evaporative plates ,we can cause the refrigerant to boil
any time.
The second thing you need to know is that when a
substance phase changes or chances state from liquid to gas for
instance ... it Absorbs a tremendous amount of energy.It
becomes a sponge for energy.
For instant it requires a lot of
energy to boil water from ground temperature which is about 55
degree f to 212 degree F.
But believe it or not it takes six
times as much energy to get it one more degree over the boiling
point than it took to increase it that 150 f. So changing
liquids to gases absorbs a tremendous amount of energy.
While the refrigerant is absorbing a tremendous amount of
energy and the molecules are going crazy because it is boiling,
the temperature doesn't rise much and the gas is not yet hot.
That is because the gas in a vacuum,expanding through a huge
flat plate collector without any pressure.
Compressing that
energy into a smaller would increase the pressure make it
hot,and change it's boiling point.
Then we could transfer the heat and use it to provide energy
for us. A compressor now becomes the key . All this gas
running freely through the evaporators is directed down into a
compressor where a piston in the compressor draws like a
syringe and fills up with energized gas.
Then all the gas in the full length of the piston chamber is
squeezed into a very small area causing each molecule to be
squeezed tightly together and thereby increasing the
temperature of the gas. The gas comes into the piston chamber
at maybe 50 degree f and comes out after being compressed at
250 degree f.
The process lets the environment energize and expand the gas
and then uses a compressor to make it 250 degree hot. The
compressor does not put the heat into the gas ,it merely
squeezes it out,like squeezing a sopping wet sponge.250 degree
F gas is now hot enough to use to heat water or air and
actually transfer the heat produced.
Now how is electricity made? Your electric supplier uses water
which boils at 212 degree f and heats it up to 1,000 degree F
or more in a pressurized boiler gas(steam).
The pressure is
released as the steam escapes past a turbine blade.
If we were
to take our 250 degree f hot gas coming out of our compressor
we could use it to boil another low temperature substance which
would become gas and turn blades that rotate a shaft.just like
the electric company.
But instead of heating up water that boils at 212 degree f
in a pressurized vessel,why not use our hot gas to excite a
substance that typically boils at 40 degrees f below zero.
Now that 250 degree f gas would get that second fluid pretty
excited. This would build up a lot pressure on our gas and
when escaped through turbine blades[ or air motor ] would
rotate a shaft that would power a generator to produce
electricity.
The difference between what we are doing to make electricity
and what the electricity company is doing, is that we are
doing it at much lower temperatures and of course we are
doing it with energy from the air whereas they are burning
coal or oil to heat that water to 1000 degree F.
Their
process of burning things to obtain high temperatures
pollutes the environment whilst this process we call low
temperature phase change burns nothing and provides safe
,clean cost free energy
The massive flat plate evaporater measures 8 foot by 3 foot Two
thin sheets of aluminum are silk screened with a vein pattern
and heated and pressed together under 200 tons of pressure and
they bond together as one piece except in the places where the
dye of the silk screen made the vein pattern.
The veins
actually poke out as the oxygen from the metal is pressed out of
the aluminum.
The result is a 8' by 3' flat collector with a
network of veins to put freon into and let boil through the
other side.
A surface area of 400 square feet can be mounted in
a 7 foot diameter.
