Abstract
The said invention relates to the provision of a miniaturized Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) system to be used as a bottoming cycle with internal combustion engines (diesel and petrol).
The system will use a Rankine Cycle, with ammonia or other organic substance as the working fluid. The heat input to this cycle will come from the engine cooling water waste heat. The work output from the cycle can be used to drive auxiliaries, such as the water pump, or generator, or fan, or air-conditioning system (in the case of a truck or car), or other uses.
The potential gains from the said system are:
1. Energy saving.
2. Improved fuel efficiency.
3. Reduction of chemical pollutants.
4. Reduction of heat pollution.
5. Improvement of the environment.

Description

SPecification Thus the system, according to the invention for carrying out the process, consists of a compact evaporator which heats and pressurizes ammonia or other organic chemical (A?, for expanding into a turbine generator (B), producing the recuperated energy. The expanded gas is then cooled in a condenser (C3, and reduced in volume substantially. The low volume medium is then pumped back (D) to the evaporator, and the cycle is repeated. The piping, fittings, controls and dryness of the organic chemical, used as the working fluid, are to be miniaturized and proven for safe operation. A
computeri~ed control system ensures the correct flows to give the optimum heat exchange, and hence, generated power capacity.
All the power generated is to be used to operate the engine auxiliaries, thus achieving the advantages and gains of the invention.
