Spontaneous Flow Heat Pump

Jean-Luc BROCHET writes: PACES : The Alternative Energy - "Paces" is a new high performance electronic process. Not a traditional heat pump fitted with some electronic gadgets to improve its output, but a truly revolutionary process totally unused up to now. There are no moving parts, not even a moving fluid in it.
"Paces" is an electronic process because the pump's fundamental element uses, for its development, micro-electronic techniques.
The principle consists in attracting the gas neutral molecules onto a so-called "electrostatic" plate, to accelerate them and heat the plate. An intense electric field is applied in a capacitor with micro-pores covering the plate. The neutral molecules are polarized and accelerated when they penetrate these micro-pores where the intense electric field exists. Each molecule accelerates and absorbs electrical energy when it enters into a pore, but in turn decelerates and gives off an equal amount of energy upon its exit from the pore. The molecules, by going back and forth between the plates, continually give off and take energy, thus resulting in a total consumption equal to zero.
The gas fluid does not undergo any change of thermodynamic state, contrary to all other heat pump processes. A thermodynamic cycle remains at the level of each gas molecule, but not at the level of the entire set of molecules.
But there is more to this new process, it is not just heat pump process added to an already long list: These new characteristics also enable some new applications. Besides the traditional heat pump applications, this process makes it possible, due to its excellent coefficient of performance, to produce electricity by cooling the environment. For instance, if the Rhine was equipped with heat exchangers into which diverted water could flow, thus cooling its temperature by just one degree, an average of 9000MW could be produced, that is to say the equivalent of several nuclear power stations.
Please note that this process would also enable both electricity and fresh water to be produced from seawater, an interesting application for areas of the world where water is a scarce resource.
Provided we have at our disposal an ecological process for producing electricity, it would become conceivable to produce hydrogen in great quantities; vehicles would be hydrogen powered. Ozone, CO2 or any other type of pollution would become a thing of the past.
It is will most probably be the energy source of future generations, ecological par excellence, inexhaustible, powerful yet completely harmless, stable and steady (contrary to the sun and the wind); an invention capable of re-launching the world economy, in particular giving impetus to the currently depressed new technology sector.
However, you have probably noticed that this invention requires advanced technology, and the few French laboratories capable of developing this process have proven inaccessible to independent researchers such as myself. Besides, the invention's claimed qualities, the revolutionary aspect was very often interpreted as 'utopian' by examiners, even before to have read document !
Weary of doors being shut in my face and tired of battling against concept fixed for the past two centuries, it is for these reasons that I have now decided to place this project within the hands of the international scientific and technological community, in order to give the best chance of success to the invention.
Initial development requires the construction of a prototype, three possibilities are described on the website. As there is no longer legal protection abroad, anyone is free to experiment and to market, as he or she wishes, in all other countries outside of France.
Please help me to spread the word about this project, for example through scientific forums on the Internet. This will allow you to receive feedback and gather other opinions.
Your participation, even the most modest, will be of use. To those of you who help bring this project to see the light of day, all of humanity will be indebted.

(User Info | Send a Message) | This is a tremendously exciting concept, and looks completely workable.
Unlike so many of the "free energy" concepts, it requires no new physics and no mysterious energy from the vacuum, etc. It is a simple heat pump that operates by creating an electrostatic field gradient. Heat flows (by means of a neutral polarizable gas) from a colder to a hotter plate because of the electrostatic field without destroying the field or requiring energy input.
Note the similarities to the gravitational electrolysis concept which was posted here some time ago. That used a gravitational field to create a separation of charge which absorbed heat energy from the environment to separate the hydrogen and oxygen out of water while producing electricity.
Both concepts use the energy in a field to run a heat pump without the necessity of adding energy into the field. Both are completely workable IMHO, though Brochet's may be simpler to implement, and more elegant in that it needs no moving parts. |
