Definitions

  • a rotary heat pump is known in which the centrifugal acceleration of the rotor is used to generate different pressure or temperature levels. Heat at a high temperature is removed from the compressed working medium and heat at a comparatively low temperature is supplied to the expanded working medium.
  • the rotary heat pump has internal heat exchangers and external heat exchangers, which are arranged essentially parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotor. The inner heat exchangers are set up for heat exchange at a lower temperature and the outer heat exchangers are set up for heat exchange at a higher temperature.
  • This type of rotary heat pump has significant advantages over stationary heat pumps. The disadvantage, however, is the high design effort of the known rotary heat pump. In addition, there is a need for improvement with regard to the rotor dynamics, which in the prior art is impaired by the mechanical connection of the individual components. Finally, there are always efforts to further increase the efficiency of such rotary heat pumps (COP - Coefficient of Performance).
  • the present invention therefore sets itself the task of alleviating or eliminating at least individual disadvantages of the prior art.
  • the aim of the invention is preferably to create a rotor which combines low design effort with high efficiency.
  • first and second rotor plates are provided, wherein the first and / or the second rotor plates have the compression channels, the expansion channels, the first heat transfer channels for the working medium and the second heat transfer channels for the heat transfer medium, the first and the second rotor plates along their Main extension levels are connected to each other.

  • the first and second rotor plates are stacked in contact with one another and connected to one another at their meeting main extension planes.

  • the rotor element can be realized from the first and second rotor elements in different designs, in particular also with smaller dimensions. This has the advantage that production can be simplified and a weaker drive machine can be used. Compared to the discrete heat exchangers in the prior art, the heat exchanger surfaces available during operation of the rotor can also be increased. The integral design of the rotor element also allows the number of sealing points to be significantly reduced.

  • the working medium can thus be distributed via the inlet openings to the flow channels within the first rotor plates.
  • the working medium then flows along the flow channels to the outlet openings, at which the working medium is led out of the rotor element.
  • the working medium In the flow channel section leading to the outside, the working medium can be compressed by the effect of centrifugal acceleration in the rotating state of the rotor. In the inwardly leading flow channel section, the working medium, also due to the centrifugal force. Heat can be transferred between the working medium and the heat transfer medium in the flow channel cross section that runs essentially in the circumferential direction.
