Filed:

Jan 25, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/627216

Inventors:

Christopher E. Thompson - Simi Valley CA, US
Owen E. Thompson - Simi Valley CA, US

International Classification:

F25D 23/00
F25D 23/06

US Classification:

62271, 62273

Abstract:

An apparatus harvests latent energy and water by adiabatically decompressing a controlled volume of atmospheric air to lower its pressure and temperature below the saturation point of included water vapor, thus causing the water vapor to change state to nonvaporous water and release to the decompressed air thermal energy associated with the change of state. The apparatus then extracts the nonvaporous water, leaving the released thermal energy in the decompressed air. The apparatus then recompresses the decompressed air, which will have a resulting temperature, and thus a thermal energy, greater than those of the initially ingested air, and harvests the recompressed air and its increased thermal energy. The apparatus can also humidify and warm atmospheric air before it is ingested to increase appreciably the amount of harvested thermal energy.
