METHOD OF TRANSFORMING HEAT.
Application filed September This invention relates to an improved process for transfo ming heat and is in the nature of a continuation in partof the inventions set .iorth in my prior application, Serial No. 570,015 filed June 22, 1922. \Vhile the process is equally and identically applicable to heating or to refrigeration, 1t. is herein set forth in its application to refrigeration.
In my improved process, a refrigerant, liquid at ordinary or room temperatures and atmospheric pressures, is caused to give off vapor while in thermal proximity to the thing to be cooled, by raising its own internal or partial vapor pressure relative to the total external pressure instead of merely reducing the external pressure of its own va por upon its surface as was heretofore co1nnion practice. This is accomplished by ex panding into the liquid one or more rapid currents of a mixture of vapor and a1r or other gas substantially insoluble in and mert to the liquid. The voids or bubbles of air fo-rmed'within the liquid filled, by Daltons law, with the vapor of the liquid extend the surface, break up the liquid, and liberate the vapor, thus cooling the remaining liquid from which the heat of vapor1zati'on necessarily comes.
This invention further consists in an improved method of removing the va orized refrigerant from contact with its liquid. Instead of merely maintaining a reduced pressure upon the refrigerant at some distant point as was formerly essential, I may carry away the vapor along with and mixed in the rapid currentof inert gas which liberated it within the liquid.
A further ii'nprovement embodied in this invention is the method of reversing the phase of the refrigerant or reliquefying it. This 1 may accomplish by sulliciently reducing the volume of the mixed gas and re- 'l'rig ra1i.t vapor in contact with a second body of refrigerant in the liquid phase which is kept near ordinary temperatures by thermal contact with an external medium such as air or water. It is unnecessary to compress the refrigerant much above one atniosphere since, as before stated, I may use a substance normally liquid at common or room temperatures and atmospheric pres- 25, 1925. S eriaI No. 58,558.
sures, which separates as a dew in the case of a homogeneous liquid such as ethyl oxide or chloride, or may be absorbed into a weaker solution in case the chosen refrigerant is a complex liquid such as ammonium hydroxide.
This invention further includes the improved method of returning the reliquefied refrigerant to the refrigerating zone. This step I may perform by simple gravity, since the total pressure upon therefrigerant is not prohibitively higher at one point than at another.
This invention also includes the complete or closed cycle resulting from the'substantiallycontinuous repetition of the above described processes in a single approximately closed system.
The accompanying drawings illustrate possible applications of the invention in practice. For clearness, only simple combinations of elements are shown which may easily be elaborated by anyone skilled in the art.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is one form of apparatus for transforming heat in accordance with my improved process and Fig. 2 is a view of simplified and more practical arrangement of apparatus. For the sake of clearness certain of. the parts shown in both figures are partly cut away.
Both figures illustrate'types of apparatus adapted to apply this process by bringing into contact with a relatively stationar 1iq uid in the refrigerating zone, a high velocity air current, and by moving the liquid to a higher level and restoring it to its original condition by the action of a relatively stationary mass of gas pressed against it. Liquids of the type of ammonium hydroxide, consisting of solutions or loose combinations of a and a liquid, are employed partially to fill the system and the remainder of the system is filled with a gas substantially inert to and insoluble in the liquid. In the case of ammonium hydroxide air may be used as the inert gas.
The operation of the apparatus disclosed in Fig. l is as follows: The vessel 1 and its connecting system comprising the interchanger 8 and the air lift column 5 are filled with aqua ammonia to the dotted line. The fan or centrifugal compressor 3 is started and air from its outlet is forced through pipe 4, air lift column 5 where saturated vapor is added, pipe 6 and suddenly expands into the liquid in 1 super-heating the vapor and forcing ahead of it any liquid in the pipe. The now virtually superheated vapor and air mixture forms an emulsoid with the liquid, and evaporation from the enormously increased liquid surface into the voids results in lowering the temperature of the liquid, below the point practicable to reach by merely removing the vapor by the conventional method. Continuing to the surface the bubbles break and the ammonia is carried rapidly away along with the air to the fan 3 through the exchanger 2-(S.
The separation of the gas from its solution in 1 results in cooling and diluting the solution, and this cooler and weaker and consequently heavier solution is drawn oil through the pipe 8 which, with the pipe 7, forms a double-pipe heat-exchanger, into the column 5. Here the mixed air and ammonia gas from the fan 3, by the well known air-lift principle lifts the liquid to the air level in the upper part of 5. Meanwhile the weakened solution brought into contact with ammonia gas redissolves the gas added by the slight reduction in volume resulting from the pressure of the fan against the liquid head. The liquid in the column'5 does not boil. It is merely lifted gently upward in contact with the walls of the vessel while each particle of it is brought into contact with the gas by a circulatory movement. The heat of solution-the complement of the heat which was abstracted from the liquid in. 1-is imparted to the walls of the vessel 5, whence it may be transferred and utilized or rejected as desired. From the upper part of the vessel 5, the now strong aqua ammonia flows by gravity through the heat-exchanger 7-8 back to the vessel 1, and the mixture of air and unabsorbed ammonia is forced into pipe 6, into and through the aqua ammonia in vessel 1 as before, thus completing the cycle.
To operate the apparatus shown in Figure 2, the refrigerator pipe 'eoilll, and the condenser eolumn 15, are properly filled with aqua ammonia and the fan or pump 13, of any well known type adapted to handle gas and liquid (such as the Nash Hytor for example)-is started. The airand vapor,-
with some liquid, are taken into the pump from coil 11, through pipe 12 (which with pipe 16 forms a heat interchanger), and are discharged at a somewhat higher total pressure into condenser vessel 15, whence the llquid overflows into pipe 16, and is carried along with the air vapor mixture, through the interchanger, back into coil 11. The total pressure on the l quid in 11 is higher than that on the liquid in 12 by the equivalent of the resistance of the pipe 16, which, if insufficient for some particular temperature requirement, may be increased by restricting it as shown at 17. As the aqua ammonia travels upward through coil 11, carried by and emulsified with the air vapor mixture, it gives off ammonia and grows colder, and this cooled and weakened liquor cools the strong liquor coming from the condenser 15 at the condensing temperature, and then passes along with the air-vapor mixture into the pump. Thus there is maintained a circulation of aqua ammonia in contactwvith air, between the two bodies of liquid, and the aqua ammonia is alternately weakened and strengthened in the members 11 and 15 respectively, while absorbing heat in the former and ejecting heat in the latter. It will be understood that the partial ammonia pressure falls through the member 11 and rises through the member 15, though the total pressures therein may be practically constant, due to the time required for the ammonia to leave the liquid and enter the air, and to separate from the air andbecome absorbed in the liquid, respectively.
In utilizing my invention for heating purposes the column 5 of Fig. 1, or 15 of Figure 2, is placed in the room to be heated and the vessel 1 of Fig. 1, or the coil 11 of Fig. 2 may be placed outdoors, thusmaking a very economical heating system since the operating energy required is that represented by the difference in outdoor and indoor temperature and the outdoor heat is simply stepped up to the desired temperature by mechanical power. The losses inevitably attending the high-temperature combustion of fuels as a source of low temperature heat are hereby eliminated.
The. process as applied to refrigeration simplifies the art beyond all comparison with prior processes. Working at practically atmos'pheric pressure throughout, this invention not only cheapens the plant in first cost, but renders its operation economical and safe to a degree hitherto impossible.
