Description

The invention relates to the field of atmospheric physics and applied meteorology, namely to devices for artificially changing atmospheric conditions over a given territory, and can be used to control air temperature during abnormal warming, including in Europe, as well as for the renovation of deserts.

It is known that the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere over 100 years has increased by about 0.74 ° C. Despite the small value of its increase, the negative consequences can be significant and are considered prone to growth with a further increase in the average temperature. Recently, there has been an increase in summer heatwaves, droughts, desert zones, more intense, extensive and air-polluting forest fires, floods, etc. became a real problem for the population of Europe.

In addition to the climate problem in Europe, let us designate the second problem - for the desert.

It is also known that on the sea coast of the desert from May to October, when the air temperature exceeds + 50 ° C, and the water heats up to + 35 ° C, there are no clouds in the sky.

The reason for the absence of clouds with an abundance of marine atmospheric moisture lies in the specific structure of the atmosphere of the coastal desert, generated by its surface heated by the sun. It can be assumed that over the hot surface of the desert in the atmosphere, delaying

layers ("temperature inversions") that prevent the rise of humid sea air to the height of cloud formation.

In winter, from November to March, clouds over the sea and the coast of desert areas are not uncommon, there are also rains. Thus, there is a gap in the water cycle in nature in the summer.

A desert as a geo object is a two-dimensional natural anomaly, thin and flat - there is no heat already at an altitude of 6 km from the surface, frost is overboard; underground in caves is also quite tolerable, and between these "cold weather" - heat, waterlessness and hot sand (clay, stone). Nevertheless, this natural anomaly is stable and successfully expanding, a kind of "ringworm" of the planet. Deserts occupy more than one fifth of the entire earth's land area.

Many acute problems of mankind and Europe will be resolved if the water circuit in the desert zone is restored and greened.

Thus, the local impact on nature in order to regulate the climate in a particular region is an urgent task.

It is well known that it is possible to change the meteorological situation in the region if hot air currents are directed upwards.

Known for the first stationary installation (meteotron) reusable for air temperature control, created in 1961 by Henri Dessen, which contained more than 100 oil burners operating under a pressure of about 60 atm (see Wolfson N. M., Levin L. M. " Meteotron as a means of influencing the atmosphere ”, Moscow, Gidrometeoizdat, 1987, p. 10).

The meteotron is a kind of heat gun that created a powerful stream of warm, moist air and launched it upward.

The disadvantages of this device are:

- the use of burners that pollute the atmosphere due to incomplete combustion of fuel;

- the need to burn a huge amount of fuel, which is economically unprofitable;

- the lifting height of the jets does not exceed 1200 m.

The closest in technical essence to the claimed solution is a device for climate control "Meteotron", designed to heat air over a large area of the earth's surface, including rotary elbows from turbojet engines, united by a common receiver, in which the afterburner is located (see Wolfson N.M. ., Levin L.M. "Meteotron as a means of influencing the atmosphere", Moscow, Gidrometeoizdat, 1987, p. 73.)

The disadvantage of this device is that the ascending air movement plays a major role only at the beginning of the formation of cumulus clouds. Further increase in the size of the clouds depends on the horizontal and eddy influx of heat and water vapor from the environment.

The disadvantage of the meteotron is that after ground heating, an uncontrolled ascending stream appears, which must overcome the descending air currents in the anticyclone and the horizontal wind, “break through” the retarding temperature inversion layer, reach the dew point level and bring with it a sufficient number of condensation centers. If at least one of the conditions is not met, no sedimentation occurs.

The technical result of the proposed solution is to increase the efficiency of controlled generation of high-altitude technogenic cirrus clouds of the Cirrus type by moving ecologically clean atmospheric moisture to the height of the dominance of geostrophic winds with simultaneous cooling of the earth's surface by forming a regional shadow zone over the problem area.

To achieve the specified technical result in the Cooler for climate control, containing a means for creating a flow of rising air into the atmosphere, according to the invention, it includes 2 or more injectors and 3-33 screw fans with an electric drive

with a capacity of at least 45,000 m ³ / s, and each injector has a housing made of inner and outer walls with a height of at least 180 m, an outlet nozzle diameter of at least 60 m, while windows for regulating air intake are located in horizontal rows along the height of the housing, and screw the fans are located inside the casing in a circle on the bearing ceilings and are equipped with air intake pressure channels, while a vertical cable prestressing system is installed in each injector in the center and in the walls between the walls, an air mass preparation unit is built in, containing tanks for water and water pumps for injecting it into the injected air, the device is also equipped with means for controlling the chemical composition of the transported air masses.

The claimed technical solution allows you to control the temperature of the earth's underlying surface and surface air by organizing high-altitude technogenic clouds (hereinafter referred to as WTO) over problem areas, using for this the available atmospheric moisture of the sea water area and unclaimed thermal discharge from power plants, including nuclear power plants.

WTO is used at the height and in the direction of the geostrophic wind of the region, in order to weaken solar radiation to reduce the temperatures of the earth's underlying surface and the surface air of the region.

Umbrella clouds generated in the troposphere using the proposed technical solution "Cooler for climate control" allows you to reduce the solar load on problem areas, for example, on the territory of Europe. To form high-altitude clouds, a vertical steam-air jet is used from a coastal energy facility modified by injectors, which forms high-altitude (over 6 km) optically dense clouds of the upper and middle troposphere with an area of up to 100 thousand square meters. km, protecting the surface

air from overheating and ensuring accessibility of European territories to Atlantic rains.

At the same time, the use of the accompanying capabilities of heat-discharge power plants (hereinafter referred to as TSES) is advisable. For example, thermal (steam, water, air) energy discharge with a capacity of more than 1000 MW in the presence of a high-rise cooling tower allows high-altitude opaque clouds to be produced - a means for regional correction of anomalous overheating of Europe.

The claimed device is aerothermal, it is intended, firstly, to reduce the temperature of the surface air in Europe, North America and the Mediterranean countries, and secondly, to restore the hydrological cycle in the deserts of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Australia, India, Indonesia, western regions Africa.

The territory of Europe (10 million km ² ) is known to be surrounded by 10 seas on three sides, including from the west. The humidity of the sea air in the hot season can reach η _w ~ 25 g / m ³ .

The natural process that determines the temperature of the tropospheric air depends on the level of solar radiation reaching the earth's surface. Clouds, including the upper layer of the troposphere, can be an effective regulator of direct and scattered total solar radiation. Part of the total radiation is absorbed by the earth's surface, its heat is transferred to the surface air. Another part of the total radiation is reflected from the Earth's surface. Air temperature management during abnormal warming is relevant for Europe in the summer (approximately from May to September).

In addition to the impact on the atmosphere over Europe, the claimed technical solution also makes it possible to return rain and greenery to the deserts through the use of industrial nuclear energy technologies.

The principle of suppressing a barrier from hot air layers with the subsequent penetration of natural low-altitude forms of rain clouds into the coastal area from the sea is schematically shown in figure 1.

In the hot season (Fig. 1, top), air currents from the sea are blocked by ascending (inversion) hot air currents coming from the desert surface. High-altitude technogenic clouds driven by the geostrophic wind (Fig. 1, bottom) reduce the heat flux from the sun, the surface of the "cold desert" loses its ability to generate powerful ascending inversion flows. With regard to air temperature, land and sea will swap places.

There is a circulation of the atmosphere of early spring, contributing to the unimpeded spread of humid sea air masses to the continent. In the evening and at night, the effect of the "cold desert" will intensify.

Low-altitude rain clouds will form over the sea due to intense evaporation in the summer daytime. Seaside surface winds will deliver rain clouds to the continent unhindered and regularly (daily and seasonally).

Due to the process of dispersion of high-altitude clouds in the atmosphere, the shape and dimensions of the WTO and, accordingly, the boundaries of the shadow region on the ground will be changeable. The optimal shape of the "umbrella" WTO (Fig. 1, bottom) is considered a sector with an opening angle of about 15 °.

Thus, the principle of regional climate correction for Europe is to control the temperature of the earth's underlying surface and surface air by generating high-altitude technogenic ("umbrella") clouds, using the atmospheric moisture of the sea water area and thermal discharge from TSES.

The prototype of high-altitude technogenic clouds are cirrus clouds of the upper and middle tier, dominating at an altitude of over 6 km, and

their variants are: cirrus dense (Cirrus spissatus, Ci sp), cirrostratus (Cirrostratus, Cs), and cirrocumulus (Cirrocumulus).

The water content (water in the solid phase) of the cirrus cloud is: ηci ~ 0.01 g / m ³ ~ (1/2500) * η _w .

This circumstance is fundamentally important for the proposed aerothermal technology, since it allows large areas to be provided with an umbrella WTO.

The transparency of cirrus clouds depends on its thickness and water content. The index of attenuation of solar radiation can reach 40% or more. The durability of high-altitude clouds varies from several hours to more than a day.

Europe is characterized mainly by "external" moisture circulation, when precipitation occurs due to the transfer of moisture, air masses in accordance with the Rose of Winds.

WTO can be an effective means of attenuating solar radiation in problem areas of Europe over a wide range, in a smooth and reversible regulation mode. The main source of water (moisture) for the WTO is the atmospheric moisture of the European seas, carried by technogenic dynamic air jets to an altitude of more than 6 km.

The cooling of European regions can be carried out under three conditions:

(1) - the presence of natural conditions for the existence of the WTO in Europe;

(2) - the presence of a natural means for transferring the WTO in a given direction;

(3) - availability of technical means for WTO generation.

Let us prove the possibility of these conditions in Europe.

(1) The photographs (Fig. 2) of typical tropospheric jets of warm air of two tower cooling towers of the Gundremmingen NPP (Germany) with a thermal power of more than 2000 MW are visual evidence of the existence of conditions for the existence of an umbrella WTO from TSES in Europe

each, where natural low-altitude and man-made high-altitude clouds, a dense shadow from the formed umbrella WTO, sources and direction of WTO transport are visible in detail. The WTO shape, depending on the high-altitude wind, is close to a sector with an acute angle.

The relatively high temperature and the initial velocity of the warm air jet of the TSES cooling towers in the atmosphere can ensure that it reaches an altitude of more than 6 km. An important factor for the generation of an umbrella WTO is also the minimization of the dispersion of jets of warm air by the surface wind.

(2) The means of directional transfer of the umbrella WTO is the natural high-altitude (geostrophic, "airplane") wind of the upper troposphere. In the northern hemisphere of the Earth, it has a predominantly western direction and a speed from several units to 30-40 m / s. The air temperature at an altitude of 6 to 15 km is minus 10 ° С - minus 60 ° С.

The territory of Europe's shielding will be determined by the location of the technical means for generating WTO in the waters of the European seas, the rose of surface winds and the direction of the high-altitude wind.

(3) Technical means for the generation of WTO (the claimed technical solution "Cooler for climate regulation").

For the practical implementation of the "cold desert" principle, three conditions are also required:

(1) - Actually high-altitude technogenic cloudiness, low-water, relatively long-lived;

(2) - Means for moving TVO in a given direction;

(3) - Means for casting to a given height the volumes of moisture-containing air required to create a WTO.

Let us show the possibility of these conditions in the desert.

(1) High-altitude clouds

High-altitude clouds are a universal natural remedy for regulating the level of solar radiation falling on the ground in wide

limits. Clouds of the upper tier, dominating at an altitude of over 6 km, are suitable for this task. These clouds are inspired by the condensation trails that sometimes form behind high-altitude aircraft (Cirrocumulus tractus).

Cirrus clouds are the tallest of all cloud types. They are formed in the atmosphere at an altitude of 6-15 km, where throughout the year the air temperature is about -20 ... -60 ° C, and these clouds consist entirely of ice crystals. The following types of cirrus clouds are suitable for our purposes: cirrus dense (Cirrus spissatus, Ci sp), cirrostratus (Cirrostratus, Cs), cirrocumulus (Cirrocumulus) and some others.

Their moisture content (ηcs) is very small - only about 0.01 g / m3, that is, only 1/3000 of the moisture content of the air of the southern seas, which is fundamentally important for the implementation of the task. These clouds do not give measurable precipitation. The transparency of such clouds depends on its thickness and water content. The attenuation factor can provide a reduction in solar radiation levels by 10% or more. Cirrus clouds can last tens of hours.

Cirrostratus clouds (Cirrostratus) do not have clear outlines and represent a foggy blanket evenly covering the entire sky, through which only the disks of the Sun and Moon are visible.

(2) A means to move the OBE

The second "means" is the wind, but not the surface wind, the direction and speed of which can change daily, but a stable in direction high-altitude ("airplane", "geostrophic") wind at an altitude of 6 km to 15 km.

Outside the equatorial latitudes and poles of the Earth, this is the high-altitude wind of the upper troposphere of the western directions, its speed varies widely from several meters per second to 30-40 m / s.

Thus, the means for moving the WTO in a predictable direction is almost always and everywhere, and the specific territory of the desert, over which the man-made high-altitude clouds will float, will be determined by the choice of the location of the source of this cloud.

(3) Means for casting to a given height the volumes of moisture-containing air required to create a WTO (the claimed technical solution "Cooler for climate control").

The claimed aerothermal device Cooler (figure 3), containing 2 or more air injectors, provided that it is sea / island or peninsular coastal basing allows:

- to deliver an environmentally friendly moisture-containing product of the natural interaction of the sea and the sun to a height of 2 km and above;

- work for a long time (up to 6 months a year) without breakdown;

- not to depend on surface winds of variable direction;

- to generate, if necessary, also freshwater condensate from the marine atmospheric moisture.

At the same time, the device is resistant to tsunamis and other water stress.

The system of vertical cable prestressing installed in the walls between the inner and outer walls of the injector body (Fig. 4) provides the structural strength of the device.

The minimization of noise from the fans is achieved by mechanical and acoustic separation of the ceilings carrying the fans from the outer walls of the device. Aviation propfans of the SV-27 type with an electric drive can be used as blowing fans.

The density of technogenic high-altitude clouds is regulated by the humidity of the injected air and the performance of the pressure fans, as well as the humidity of the atmosphere in the middle layer of the troposphere over the protected area:

To regulate the humidity of the injected air, a special unit located inside the injector is used for preparing air masses by sprinkling them with natural water (sea, fresh).

The area of the territory covered with technogenic cirrus clouds (at least 500 m thick) is determined by the volume of injected air. The capacity of pressure fans of the SV-27 type (up to 1960 kg / sec of air) is regulated by the angle of inclination of the blades and their rotation speed (rpm).

From the foregoing it follows that the introduced distinctive features affect the specified technical result, are in a causal relationship with it.

The device is illustrated by drawings, where:

- in Fig. 1 schematically shows this principle of suppressing a barrier from hot air layers with the subsequent penetration of natural low-altitude forms of rain clouds into the coastal territory from the sea;

- in Fig. 2 shows typical tropospheric jets of warm air of two tower cooling towers of the NPP "Gundremmingen" (Germany) with a thermal capacity of more than 2000 MW each;

- in Fig. 3 shows a general view of the Cooler device;

- in Fig. 4 shows the device injector (axial section);

- in Fig. 5 shows the device injector (cross-section).

- in Fig. 6 shows a map showing the locations of possible device placement.

The following items are used in the drawings: 1 - injector; 2 - system of vertical cable prestressing; 3 - fans; 4 - load-bearing floors; 5 - units for the preparation of air masses; 6 - windows for air intake regulation; 7 - air intake pressure channels; 8 - air intake cavities for condensation of atmospheric moisture.

The cooler for climate control includes injector 1, which is a hollow reinforced concrete structure (pipe)

a cylindrical shape of the type of a cooling tower, with a height of at least 180 m, that is, 180-600 m, with an outlet nozzle diameter of 40-100 m (Figs. 4, 5).

The selected height of the injector 1 (not less than 180 m) and the speed (not less than 40 m / s) of the humid air outlet ensure the independence of the device operation from the direction and strength of the surface winds. Injectors 1 can be installed 2 or more, depending on the size of the area of the territory protected from solar radiation.

The injector body 1 has inner and outer walls, in the walls between which there is a vertical cable prestressing system 2 to ensure the structural strength of the device.

Inside the injector body 1, there are additional structures of the installation for preparation, control and injection of humidified air to a design height of 2 km and higher.

The central and peripheral aggregate structures are designed to provide air humidity, enter cloud-forming substances (if necessary) and control the quality and safety of the air stream for shaded areas.

Inside the injector body 1 there are 33 pressure-driven screw fans 3 with an electric drive with a total capacity of at least 50,000 m ³ / sec. Pressure fans 3 are located inside the body of the injector 1 along the circumference on the supporting floors 4 (Fig. 5). The minimum number of pressure fans is 3 pcs.

Pressure fans 3 are designed to provide vertical high-speed (up to 40 m / s) transfer of air masses with a total capacity of at least 50 thousand cubic meters. meters per second.

The injector 1 also has a built-in central unit 5 for the preparation and control of air masses with specified properties (temperature, humidity).

Unit 5 is a central cylindrical structure located along the vertical axis of the injector 1,

containing water tanks and water pumps for injecting it, if necessary, into the injected air.

There is also a laboratory for monitoring air masses. Peripheral units located in the space between the outer and inner walls of the injector body 1 are equipped with peripheral fans for air intake and equipment for condensation in the required volume of atmospheric moisture in order to provide unit 5 with natural water of atmospheric origin (Fig. 4, 5).

The device also includes windows 6 for regulating air intake. Windows 6 are equipped with shutters that can be opened or closed by an operator, taking into account weather conditions and the moisture content of the air layers. Air intake windows 6 are arranged horizontally in rows every 20 m along the height of the injector body 1 or at typical (for a given region) heights of air layers most saturated with moisture.

The device also includes air intake pressure channels 7, air intake cavities for condensation of atmospheric moisture 8.

The pressure channels 7 are designed to supply the bulk of the external moisture-containing air to the pressure fans 3 to form a vertical jet in order to generate a WTO. Air intake cavities 8 are designed to receive moisture-containing air from peripheral fans for condensation in the required volume of atmospheric moisture in order to provide the unit 5 with natural water of atmospheric origin.

The cooler for climate regulation works as follows.

The declared device should be located on the coast / islands of the southern sea with a favorable (sea) wind rose, at a distance of no more than 2 km from the NPP. The direction of movement of the technogenic WTO is indicated by the movement of natural cirrus clouds.

For the formation of a technogenic WTO, the claimed device can use the warm moisture-containing air of the southern sea,

evaporation of the discharge channel and cooling towers of nuclear power plants, other sources of moisture. The NPP provides the device's needs for electricity and heat from the energy discharge.

In the injector 1 of the claimed device, through the lower pressure channels 7 to the pressure fans 3 installed on the load-bearing ceilings 8, the bulk of the external moisture-containing air is supplied with the addition (if necessary) of a specially prepared water-air mixture from the outside air and natural water in the unit 5.

Formed by pressure fans 3, a compact high-speed vertical air jet reaches a height of more than 2 km - above the surface wind layer of the troposphere. The further rise of warm moisture-containing air to an altitude of more than 6 km occurs due to the positive temperature difference of the injected air with the temperature of the medium at an altitude of more than 2 km.

At an altitude of over 6 km from moisture-containing air, injected by a device with a capacity of at least 45 thousand cubic meters. m., an optically dense technogenic cirrus cloud of the Cirrus type is formed, shielding an area of up to 100 thousand square meters from solar radiation and overheating. km, which protects the atmosphere from abnormal warming and from the formation of an inversion thermal barrier, providing, for example, the access of Atlantic rains to the territory of coastal deserts and steppes.

To prove the industrial applicability of the claimed device, we present the following estimates.

Let us estimate the stable visible dimensions of the WTO (in the form of a sector), taking one day for the conditional time of the optical existence of the "substance" of the technogenic umbrella cloud, as well as the amount of sea air that must be constantly "blown out" to a height of 6 ÷ 5 km, that is, we find the productivity source of the WTO.

For example, v = 5 m / s (18 km / h), a technogenic cloud will spread over a distance of R = 24 * 18 = 432 km in one day.

Let's estimate the area of the 15 ° -sector: S _WTO = π * R ² * 15 ° / 360 ° = 24 thousand km ² .

The volume of the WTO with a thickness of 0.5 km will be: V = 24000 km ² * 0.5 km = 12 thousand km ³ .

The water contained in the WTO (with a cirrus water content ηcs = 0.01 g / m ³ = 10 t / km ³ ) will weigh a lot:

M = ηcs * V = 120 thousand tons

The debit for maintaining the existence of such an "umbrella" is:

Q _WTO = M /(24*3600)=1.4 t / s.

If we use the air of the water area of the tropical seas as a "feedstock" (with a moisture content η _w = 30 g / m ³ = 30 thousand tons / km ³ ), then the productivity (by air) Q of our WTO source should be at least:

Q = M / η _w = 120,000 (t / day) / 30,000 (t / km ³ ) = 4 km ³ / day ≈ 50 thousand m ³ / sec.

For high altitude wind velocity v _s = 20 m / s performance Q must be at least 200 thousand. ³ m / sec.

Accordingly, the dimensions of the WTO are as follows:

R _WTO = 432 km * 22/5 = 1900 km,

S _WTO = π * R ² * 15 ° / 360 ° = 470 thousand km ² .

The volume with a thickness of 0.5 km will be:

V = 470 thousand km ² * 0.5 km = 235 thousand km ³ .

We will consider the values Q _min = 50 thousand m ³ / s and Q _max = 200 thousand m ³ / s (corresponding to the distances R _min = 432 km and R _max = 1900 km), the lower and upper bounds of the required air flow rate to maintain the WTO ...

Introducing energy costs.

Based on the value Q _max = 200 thousand m ³ / s, we estimate the power N required to reach an air jet of heights of 6 km or more. Let the initial diameter of the air stream D ₀ = 60 m, 80 m and 100 m.

To ensure the value of Q _{max, the} initial jet velocity should be no more than v ₀ = 70 m / s, 40 m / s and 25 m / s - this is the air speed in the subsonic wind tunnel. Vertical air jets of such output parameters, according to an estimate using the well-known Priestley formula, can reach heights of more than 10 km in an unstratified atmosphere.

The high initial air velocity minimizes the tilt and diffusion of the air jet in the presence of surface wind.

The power required to provide such output parameters of the jets is calculated by the formula N ~ (π / 8) * ρ * D ₀ ² * v ₀ ³ , where ρ is the air density. It can be seen that the power will amount to 70 megawatts or more, which are quite realistic for a nuclear power plant.

Depending on the required area of solar load attenuation in the territory shielded by the WTO, and the number of injectors, typical European CHPs and NPPs with a capacity of 100 ÷ 1000 MW can be used as an energy source for electric fans.

As injectors 1 of the device can also be used tower cooling towers of nuclear power plants, modernized for the functions of combining thermal discharge and generation of umbrella WTO.

The modernization of the cooling tower consists in equipping its tower with blocks of electric fans 3 of the required capacity to ensure the flow rate and speed of air at the outlet from the nozzle sufficient for the rapid passage of the barrier layer of the surface wind and low clouds, that is, for the dynamic rise of the cooling tower air to a height of over 2 km.

Further rise of air from the cooling tower to the height of the geostrophic wind (over 6 km) will occur through the natural ascent of the air jet due to the significant temperature difference between the air from the cooling tower and the surrounding air.

The optimal type of cooling towers that ensure the ecological purity of the WTO environment and the minimum consumption of fresh water seem to be

tower "dry" cooling towers supplying only thermal energy to the atmosphere.

The problematic territory of Europe (from Portugal to the Black Sea) is about 70-85% of the entire area of Europe, or about 8 million km ² . For screening with the help of the WTO such a territory may require, according to condition (2), about 60 injectors, grouped in 12 declared cooler devices on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea (Fig. 6).

Depending on the severity of the negative effects of anomalous warming, it is possible to update the locations of the proposed devices on the map of Europe and the sequence of their organization. Considering that the maximum length of the Iberian Peninsula with an area of about 600 thousand km ² from west to east is 1200 km and its location between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, the presence of European deserts (Tabernas, Monegros, etc.), it is advisable to use the WTO to cool Spain from placing devices near TSES on the Atlantic coast of Spain and Portugal. Nuclear power plants on the Atlantic coast of France can be especially effective for large-scale WTO shielding of the territory of Europe during the expansion of the global warming zone from the Sahara to the Baltic Sea.

Introducing the environmental benefits and features of the device.

The cloudy-atmospheric load of the claimed device on the climate of the regions is completely reversible, regulated and controlled, in contrast to extraterrestrial and expensive "lens" or "screen" methods of regulating solar radiation or any chemical-toxic effect on the cloudiness and atmosphere of Europe by spraying aerosols on based on sulfur and other elements.

Due to the cooling of the surface air during the operation of the device to create shading (screening) of the territory of Europe,

influx of rain clouds from the seas and an increase in precipitation in the hot season.

Thanks to the high-altitude "cryogenic" distillation of the WTO (similar to natural high-altitude clouds of marine origin), the "settlement" of something protected from the sun is excluded.

The jet transfer of large volumes of air is usually accompanied by a low-frequency background noise. The design of the injector walls of the device maximally compensates for the indicated acoustic effects.

The process of operation of the device with cooling tower injectors is completely controllable, it allows you to change the structure and optical transparency of the WTO, as well as the characteristics of its operation until the termination of the generation of the umbrella WTO, continuing to operate on industrial condensation of atmospheric moisture to supply clean natural water for household and drinking purposes.

The high-altitude cloudiness generated by the device has a density and area of coverage that is systematically controlled by humans, which is not feasible with other cloud formation and management methodologies.

The uninterrupted operation cycle of the device based on the TSES makes it possible to use the atmospheric moisture of the seas to eliminate the static nature of the internal moisture circulation, when precipitation is no longer enough due to less moisture evaporated from territorial reservoirs and lands (forests) with a decreasing moisture content of the soil.

The device uses absolutely free means to correct the climate: the unlimited atmospheric moisture of the water area of the seas and the thermal discharge of power plants, useless for mankind and the environment.

For the desert, the claimed device is a nuclear power plant operating on its upgraded

cooling tower injectors. The thermal power that went into the evaporator of the cooling tower is recovered here to heat the injected air up to 40 ° C in order to increase the buoyancy of the air stream.

The height and performance of the cooling tower injectors must ensure that the station is independent of surface winds.

The devices can be used as energy sources for the injectors (depending on the area of the shaded areas) of nuclear power plants with a capacity of 600 ÷ 1200 MW.

Compact modular nuclear power units, 200 MW each, 3-5 pcs. ideal as energy sources for the claimed device, guaranteed and uninterrupted supply of energy for many years.

Atomic devices for influencing the atmosphere can be used primarily in the desert areas of Australia, Iran, India, the deserts of North and South America, South Africa, the coastal zones of the Sahara Desert, as well as in the deserts of the Middle East and the Arabian Peninsula, washed from the west by the seas.

The territories of countries washed by the seas from the east, for example, China, can also be included in the list of promising ones for regional climate correction using the proposed device if there are stable high-altitude air currents in their atmosphere in the east.
