記課題を解決することができる。The saturated vapor pressure of a liquid rises as the temperature rises. Using this principle, high-pressure vapor can be produced by applying thermal energy to the liquid in the sealed pressure-resistant high-temperature liquid storage container to heat the liquid to the boiling point or higher and suppress boiling. The thermal energy has been converted to high pressure steam and stored as hot water. This high-pressure steam, without reducing the pressure,
Transfer to another low-temperature liquid storage container, pressurize the liquid in this container, discharge the liquid at a high flow rate by the static pressure of this high-pressure steam, operate a power generator such as a turbine, operate electricity and drive Generates power such as force. That is, heat energy is converted into steam pressure, steam pressure is converted into liquid kinetic energy, and power is converted. Since gas bodies such as steam have high compressibility, it is inefficient to operate the turbine with low-temperature steam. On the other hand, since the liquid is incompressible, even when the temperature is low, the energy efficiency when the turbine is operated by the fluid force is high. Therefore, by transferring the pressure of the high-pressure vapor to an incompressible liquid, the pressure causes the liquid to flow out at a high flow rate, and a turbine is operated to convert the liquid into motive power, whereby high energy conversion efficiency can be obtained. The above-mentioned problems can be solved by the above means.

ている。The high-pressure steam produced in the high-temperature water storage container 1 is sent to the water storage container (the former) 7 in which water at room temperature is stored, via the steam transfer system 6 in FIG. Water storage container (A) 7
An adiabatic floating lid 8 is installed on the water surface so as to follow the vertical fluctuation of the water surface. The pressure of the high-pressure steam pressurizes the water via the heat insulating floating lid 8. Due to the heat-insulating effect of the heat-insulating floating lid 8, the water in the water storage container (instep A) 7 is not heated by the high-temperature high-pressure steam, and the high-temperature high-pressure steam is not cooled by the water, so that the pressure drop due to the temperature drop can be prevented. it can.
The pressurized water flows through the water transfer system 9 into the water storage container 10 (B) at a high flow rate. The flow velocity of water is affected by the size and shape of the water transfer system 9, but when pressurized at about 15 atmospheres, a flow velocity of 20 meters or more per second can be obtained. In the middle of the water transfer system 9, 11 turbine turbine-type generators are installed, and the water storage container (A) 7 to the water storage container (B) 10
It is activated by the high-velocity water flowing into the water and generates electricity. By opening the 12 valve of the water storage container (B) 10, the air in the water storage container (B) 10 is released, and the water flows from the water storage container (A) 7 to the water storage container (B) 10 at a constant flow rate. Flow in
A constant electric output is obtained. That is, the energy of the high-pressure steam produced in the high temperature water storage container 1 is converted into electricity by the thermal energy. The amount of power generation is controlled by adjusting the amount of water by the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve 13 of the water transfer system 9. The power generation capacity of the device can be arbitrarily selected depending on the amount and pressure of high-pressure steam supplied, the size of the generator 11, the water transfer system 9, and the like. The high-pressure steam used in this device has a low temperature of about 200 degrees Celsius or less, a pressure of 15 atmospheres or less, and water and steam with a lot of experience can be used, so there are few material and structural restrictions and durability. Is excellent.

Therefore, 14 valves of the steam transfer system 6 are closed to stop the supply of high-pressure steam, and 15 valves of the water transfer system 9 are closed to stop the outflow of water. Then, by opening 16 valves of the water transfer system 9 and further opening 17 vapor release valves of the water storage container (A) 7, water is transferred from the water storage container (B) 10 to the water storage container (A) 7. Is returned.

とする、熱エネルギーを動力に変換する方法。1. High-pressure steam by applying heat energy to a liquid in a gas-tight and pressure-resistant high-temperature liquid storage container capable of storing a liquid and its vapor to heat the liquid above its boiling point to suppress boiling This high-pressure vapor is transferred to an airtight, pressure-resistant low-temperature liquid storage container, the liquid in the low-temperature liquid storage container is pressurized with high-pressure vapor, and this static pressure causes the liquid to flow from the low-temperature liquid storage container. At a high flow rate, the power of this high flow rate liquid drives the power generator to generate power, and after all the liquid in the high temperature liquid storage container has flowed out, the high pressure vapor from the high temperature liquid storage container Of the low temperature liquid storage container is discharged, the liquid is stored again,
The high-pressure vapor is again transferred, pressurized, the liquid is discharged, power is generated, and the amount of the liquid in the high-temperature liquid storage container that is vaporized and consumed is replenished with the liquid and this operation is continued. , A method of converting heat energy into power.
