Definitions

  • the invention relates to the storage of a large amount of energy to be released and used in a very short time.
  • Such storage is known from the document EP-A-0 976 914 .
  • This large amount of energy can also be used to power a steam catapult, an electromagnetic gun or laser equipment.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a system for delivering this large amount of energy in a very short time and usable on a ship.
  • the main object of the invention is a system for storing and releasing a large amount of energy to be released and used in a very short time, installed on an installation comprising at least one thermodynamic machine. delivering, among others, exhaust gases, and propulsion means.
  • thermodynamic machine is a gas turbine.
  • the liquid in the flask is water.
  • the figure 1 schematizes the system for storing and releasing a large amount of energy according to the invention.
  • thermodynamic machine supplying the energy necessary for the operation of an installation, such as a ship, is, in this case, a gas turbine 1 supplying, for example, an electric alternator 2 producing the necessary energy itself. to the operation of the whole ship.
  • the gas turbine 1 Independently of this function, the gas turbine 1 inevitably produces a very large quantity of exhaust gas which is thus recovered by an exhaust pipe 6 supplying a heat exchanger 4 placed in a main balloon 3 in which a large amount of storage is stored. amount of water.
  • the management of the temperature and the pressure of the main balloon 3 can be achieved by means of several valves 5.
  • the water is stored under high pressure, for example 220 to 400 bar, and at a temperature of around 600 ° C. It is thus possible to store several million kilos Joules in a balloon of several cubic meters. In fact, under these conditions, 1 kilo of water can contain 3,300 kilos Joules per kilo.
  • a bypass line 7 is used to let the exhaust gas escape through a chimney 8, when their heat input is not necessary. It is thus possible to heat the water of the main balloon 3 in 30 minutes.
  • the large amount of energy stored in the main balloon 3 must be transformed, for example in thrust to move the ship in a straight line or to rotate very quickly 90 °.
  • the figure 2 shows a ship 20 and its means of propulsion. These include two transverse thrusters 21 being each placed in a transverse channel 22 or 23 and a hydrojet 9 for its main propulsion.
  • the presence of two transverse channels 22, 23, spaced apart from each other by a large distance allows, by arranging the transverse thrusters 21 in each transverse channel 22 or 23, in opposite directions, to obtain a torque on the ship 20. The pivoting thereof is then possible in a few seconds.
  • the hydrojet 9 placed at one end of the ship can also facilitate the maneuver by advancing or retreating the vessel 20.
  • a first is to directly feed a hydrojet 9 through an outlet of the main balloon 3, delivering, by means of a hydrojet nozzle 10, the large amount of energy.
  • a hydrojet nozzle 10 delivers, by means of a hydrojet nozzle 10, the large amount of energy.
  • it has, in a few seconds, a large propulsion force in one or more hydrojets 9.
  • Another solution is to use a high-speed turbine 11 fed by the main balloon 3 and driving a turbopump 12 or another propulsion means, such as one of the two transverse thrusters 21 of the figure 2 .
  • a third solution consists in using an endothermic chemical reactor 16 using one or more reactants which, when raised at high temperature, for example 600 ° C., can release a large quantity of gas that can contribute to the production of a displacement. fast of the ship.
  • any converter of thermal energy into mechanical, electrical or chemical energy can be used with the principle of the exploitation of the exhaust gases in the balloon 3.
  • a secondary balloon 14 placed in the main balloon 3 and containing water can be used. conditions less extreme than those relating to the water contained in the main balloon 3. Thus, it is possible to have a large amount of steam to actuate the catapult 15.
  • the invention does not require additional motor devices to provide and accumulate the necessary energy to be used. Indeed, ships are equipped with a thermodynamic machine operating under the principle of CARNOT and thus rejecting a large amount of exhaust gas often representing two to three times the mechanical power produced by the machine. In the present case, this energy can be used partly or entirely, in parallel with the main energy production which is the primary function of the thermodynamic machine used on the ship. This large amount of exhaust gas can heat a balloon relatively quickly.
