Description

Field of application of the invention

The invention relates to a device for energy conversion, especially for the use of the intrinsic energy of flow masses and the water pressure with the preferred use in flowing waters for the production of electrical energy.

Characteristic of the known technical solutions

The DD-PS 2 35 300 is an essentially three-stage Method and device for energy conversion known a floating pressure plate in one from the bottom floodable and drainable displacement space movable in height is guided and in the working phase under pressure water a plunger moves down, which in turn over a pressure line drives a turbine. In the further embodiment The process becomes the filling space above the pressure plate emptied, the pressure plate by reversing the inlet by flooding the displacement space to the upper stroke end position brought and locked there. In a further process step the upper filling space above the pressure plate is in the locking position flooded while emptying at the same time of the displacement space.

This solution has proven to be disadvantageous that the water mass available to drive the turbine in Pressure cylinder space through the piston arrangement a "dead space" below the pressure plate is necessary and the cylinder shape allows only a low energy yield.

DD-PS 2 58 444 also includes methods and apparatus for energy conversion with five energy generation phases to the stand the technology, in which one or several turbines are driven by

• - the empty flow of the filling spaces above the pressure plates,
• - the flooding of the displacement spaces,
• - the flooding of the filling rooms,
• - the emptying of the pressure cylinder space by means of the pressure plate pressure water and
• - the empty flow of the displacement spaces.

• - Several consecutive devices and
• - for each sub-device in addition to an inlet and an outlet grille, the vertically movable pressure plate with an underlying one Cylinder-piston arrangement corresponding to the process stages Reversal of the various valve and switching elements provided is.

The disadvantage of this solution is the fact that everywhere where there is water potential and head, energy is won, but the sum of all energy generation phases still does not reach the order of magnitude by means of another shape the pump arrangement can be achieved below the pressure plate could. Another aspect of this known technical solution is their practical implementation, because the interaction of the different Turbines to a constant energy production size represents a problem for the sake of timing the different phases, their different energy quantities themselves, and the different locations of the turbines on the device and their tap on a generator turns out to be turns out to be very complicated.

  Synchronizing with the opening of the pressure valve 19 , the fixing of the pressure plate 4 in the upper stroke end point T 1 is released via the locking / releasing device 14 , ie the locking levers 13 are released from the retaining eyes 12 , and the water (mass) above the pressure plate 4 acts fully Via the translation prism 8 to the amount of water in the compression container 9 and this water flows at a very high speed from the pressure line 20 through the nozzle 21 to the turbine 29 and drives it. By moving the pressure plate 4 from the upper stroke end point T 1 to the lower stroke end point T 2 and pushing the compression container 9 into one another, this process of converting pressure energy of the amount of water in the compression container 9 is converted into kinetic energy of the emerging water jet.

Process of energy conversion - functional sequence

The functional sequence of energy conversion is illustrated using the example a sub-device explained in more detail. In the other two The same processes take place in partial devices, only are they staggered in time.

The initial state of the device is characterized by the following functions:
the device is present and functional through all the elements described in the exemplary embodiment,
- water potential is present,
- all inlet shut-off valves are closed,
- all drain check valves are closed,
- the inlet flap is closed,
- the drain flap is closed,
- The pressure plate is in the lower stroke end point T 2 .

a) Transporting the pressure plate 4 from the lower stroke end point T 2 to the upper stroke end point T 1 and filling the compression container 9 with water:
Through the contact of the pressure plate 4 with the limit switch 39 , all inlet shut-off valves 17.1 to 17.4 are opened. Since the inlet water 24 has a higher water level than the inlet line 5 , the vertical guides 5 a and the compression container 9 , the containers are flooded due to the regularity of the communicating vessels.
Because the flooding of the compression container 9 alone would not be sufficient to convey the pressure plate 4 from the lower stroke end point T 2 to the upper stroke end point T 1 , this process of conveying the pressure plate 4 from T 2 to T 1 supports or floods the vertical guides 5 a and the associated buoyancy of the floating and guide bodies 27 . The floating and guide body 27 must therefore have a very low density and be filled with gas or air if possible. When the pressure plate 4 reaches the upper stroke end point T 1 , the locking levers 13 snap into the retaining eyes 12 of the pressure plate. The latching pulse causes the locking / release device 14
all inlet shut-off valves 17.1 to 17.4 are closed in order to shut off the inflow of water from the inlet water 24 ,
- The drain shut-off valve 18 is opened so that the floating and guide bodies 27 are relieved of the water which is located in the vertical guides 5 a and do not hinder the process of the later downward movement of the pressure plate 4 from T 1 to T 2 ,
- The inlet flap 10 opened to secure the flooding of the filling chamber 25 from the inlet water 24 .
When the water level of the filling chamber 25 reaches the float-operated switch 26 , the process becomes
b) the flooding of the filling spaces 25 is completed. The switch 26 opens synchronously

is the following Cause and effect process triggered:

• c1) the mass of the water lying above the pressure plate 4 (water in the filling chamber 25 ) causes a very high pressure on the translation prism 8 , which is located below the pressure plate 4 and is firmly connected to it.
• c2) the pressure plate 4 experiences a downward movement from T 1 to T 2 due to the law of gravity pressure.
• c3) the compression container 9 is designed so that the gravitational pressure resulting from the deep water in the filling chamber 25 acts on the pressure plate 4 and subsequently on the translation prism 8 and thus causes the pressure distribution within the compression container, ie the pressure is the same height in all levels within the compression container 9 (analogous to the pressure on the translation prism 8 ).
• c4) by the downward movement of the translation prism 8 , the rod 9 b is also moved downwards. By the downward movement of the rod 9 b, the pull lines 9 c are attracted and the ring segments 9 d also pull the elastic cover 9 a together, so that the space of the compression container 9 by the contraction of the elastic cover 9 a through the pull lines 9 c and their coupling is reduced with the ring segments 9 d and thus the initial state defined above (heavy pressure acts fully on the translation prism 8 and thus on the water in the compression container 9 ) is maintained.
  These special devices of the compression container 9 ensure the ideal state (high constant pressure in the compression container 9 ) in all phases of the downward movement of the pressure plate 4 from the upper stroke end point T 1 to the lower stroke end point T 2 .
• c5) the water in the compression container 9 is squeezed out under a very high pressure through the pressure line 20 from the nozzle 21 due to the laws and devices set out above and converted there at full speed into the emerging water jet. The kinetic energy of the water jet results from the mass of the outflowing water multiplied by the 2nd power of the speed of this water jet divided by 2.
  This water jet drives the turbine 29 , which subsequently drives a generator in which electrical energy is generated.

What energy values with the help of this process and the associated Device should be able to be generated using examples are explained in more detail:

requirements
- Waters with an inflow of 1 m³ / s
- Fall height (difference between water level and turbine location) = 3 m
- Turbine losses are neglected in the example

a) Conventional processes (water potential, downpipe, turbine and generator):

Since a gross drop height of 3 m was used in the example, only the theoretical performance has been calculated. After insertion the net head is reduced by the above Value on approx. 2/3, i.e. to 19.62 kW.

b) Power generation using this invention Example b-I: pressure = 1.6 MPa

The size of a device is z. B.

• b1) Volume of the filling space 25 :
  L = 3.2 m
  B = 2.0 m
  H = 1.0 m
  The volume of the filling space 25 is thus 6.4 m³.
• b2) Volume of the compression container 9 :
  The volume of the compression container 9 results from the following components:
  • - the height HH = 2 m
  • - The area of the translation prism 8 - z. B. 400 cm² (20 x 20 cm)
  • - The lower surface of the compression container 9 (on the pressure line 20 ), it is = 7600 cm² (87.2 x 87.2 cm).
    The volume of the compression container 9 is thus 800 dm³ (m = 800 kg).
• b3) The necessary water volume in the vertical guides 5 a is also 800 dm³.

This means that under the condition - 1 m³ water inflow per second - that 8 m³ are required to fill this device with water. The filling of a device thus takes 8 seconds. Now for the necessary explanations and requirements for energy conversion:
V 1 - The outflow speed w from the compression container 9 is dependent on the volume (mass) of the filling water 25 = 6.4 m³ = 6400 kg and the area of the translation prism 8 = 400 cm².
V 2 - The volume (mass) of the flooded compression container 9 is 800 dm³ = 800 kg.
V 3 - The volume of water required to lift the pressure plate 4 from the lower stroke end point T 2 to the upper stroke end point T 1 is also 800 dm³ (eg 4 vertical guides with H = 2 m and A = 1000 cm²).
V 4 - The duration of energy conversion in a device is 8 seconds - analogous to the duration of its filling.
V 5 - The pressure in the compression container 9 is calculated from the following factors:
The pressure in the compression container 9 is the quotient of the mass of the water lying in the filling space 25 and the area of the translation prism 8 .

The pressure p generated in the compression container 9 thus corresponds to a water column of 160 m (h = 160 m). The outflow rate w is according to the Torricelli discharge formula:

Since according to the requirement - V 2 - the mass of the compression container 9 is a water quantity of 800 kg and according to the requirement - V 4 - the duration of the energy conversion is 8 seconds, a mass of 100 kg of water is used for energy conversion per second.

Due to friction, pressure losses, etc. is also as in the example a) a loss factor of actual performance theoretical performance in the amount of 2/3. This results in a power value of 104.6 kW compared to 19.6 kW the conventional energy conversion processes, d. H. concrete an increase to 5.3 times.  

Example b-II: pressure = 6.4 MPa

In this example, the same device as in example bI is used for theoretical investigation, with the only difference that the pressure is increased to 6.4 MPa by reducing the area of the transmission prism 8 to 100 cm 2. The requirement - V 5 - is changed in the following form:

The pressure p generated in the compression container 9 thus corresponds to a water column of h = 640 m.
Initial conditions of energy conversion:
V = 800 kg = 0.8 m³
h = 640 m
t = 8 s

This power is also multiplied by the loss factor 2/3, so that the power value of 418.6 kW in the invention Device is generated. This value corresponds to at least a 20-fold increase compared to all conventional hydropower plants among the same starting conditions.
