Process and equipment for transforming heat at a relatively low temperature into power or energy

Abstract From the Canadian patent

The invention relates to a process for transforming heat having a low temperature, wherein said heat is used for heating a condensable primary fluid which participates in a binary thermodynamic cycle and wherein thereafter this fluid is expanded for producing motive power or thermic energy having a higher potential, and an equipment for putting into practice the said process which comprises a superheater in which the, fluid carrying the heat to be transformed and the primary fluid circulate, and an expansion device for said primary fluid. - 1 -
