TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to at least one heat transfer system which has at least one heat transfer element which can take heat from a heat source and which can transfer said heat to a first fluid, at least one turbine where the first fluid is heated and actuated, at least one pump which provides carrying of the first fluid, passed through said turbine, to said heat transfer element again.

PRIOR ART

In the present art, heat transfer elements are also known as heat exchanger. Most of heat exchangers have been designed for heat transfer between two liquids. However, they are not limited with this, and they can provide heat transfer between substances at different phases. In case the fluids must not contact each other in the exchanger, the fluids are separated from each other by means of a solid wall and by means of this, heat transfer occurs without the fluids mixing with each other. However, there are types where the fluids directly contact each other.

Heat exchangers are frequently used in cooling, air-conditioning, heating, power production and chemical processes. An example to a frequent heat exchanger is automobile radiator. Here, the motor cooling water which contacts a surface of the hot radiator contacts the other surface and is cooled with the passing air.

The problem which exists in the present art is that drive element like pump is used for actuating fluids which exist in the heat transfer units which exist in the systems designed for heat transfer. These elements form inner consumption and consume high amount of electrical energy for actuating the liquid. This leads to increase of operational costs of systems and increase energy consumption and leave unfavorable effects to the environment.

Another problem is that pump is used for providing flow while waste heats are taken by means of heat transfer units in production of electrical energy in organic rankine conversions. Here, since the energy obtained from ORC systems is reduced from the inner consumption, it affects the efficiency. This decreases preferability of operating mechanical systems. As a result, because of the abovementioned problems, an improvement is required in the related technical field.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a heat transfer system, for eliminating the abovementioned disadvantages and for bringing new advantages to the related technical field.

An object of the present invention is to provide a heat transfer system which can enable absorption of waste heat.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a heat transfer system which can enable electricity generation while waste heat is being absorbed.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a heat transfer system where the power, which shall be consumed by the pump, is not outsourced while the waste heat is being absorbed.

In order to realize the abovementioned objects and the objects which are to be deducted from the detailed description below, the present invention is at least one heat transfer system which has at least one heat transfer element which can take heat from a heat source and which can transfer said heat to a first fluid, at least one turbine where the first fluid is heated and actuated, at least one pump which provides carrying of the first fluid, passed through said turbine, to said heat transfer element again. Accordingly, the improvement is that the subject matter heat transfer system comprises at least one movement transfer element where said pump is connected for actuating said pump by the turbine for carrying of the first fluid, at least one magnetic element provided on said movement transfer element for enabling electricity production, and at least one conductor pipe provided around said magnetic element for producing electricity as a result of magnetic field change depending on movement of said magnetic element together with the movement transfer element. Thus, the pump is operated without needing any external energy and at the same time, electricity is produced while heat absorption is being realized.

In a possible embodiment of the present invention, at least one energy unit is provided where said conductor pipe is connected. Thus, produced energy is transmitted and accumulated. In another possible embodiment of the present invention, said heat transfer system comprises at least one second fluid for cooling the first fluid in the conductor pipe. Thus, the first fluid is rapidly cooled.

In another possible embodiment of the present invention, at least one valve is provided between the heat transfer element and the pump. Thus, flow of the first fluid in every direction is prevented.

In another possible embodiment of the present invention, phase changing characteristic is provided by means of heating and compressing the first fluid. Thus, the turbine is rotated by heating the first fluid and afterwards the first fluid is transferred by the pump depending on condensing.

In another possible embodiment of the present invention, said heat transfer system has dielectric characteristic and phase unchanging characteristic by means of heating and compressing the second fluid. Thus, while heat is absorbed from the first fluid from one side, prevention of electricity production is avoided from the other side.

In another possible embodiment of the present invention, at least one transfer chamber is provided wherein the first fluid, which exits the turbine, is kept before entering the pump. Thus, heat transfer and electricity production can be realized together.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In this detailed description, the subject matter is explained with references to examples without forming any restrictive effect only in order to make the subject more understandable.

In Figure 1 and 2, one each representative views of the subject matter heat transfer system (1 ) is given. Accordingly, said heat transfer system (1) has at least one first unit (10) and at least one second unit (20) which can generate electricity while this heat is being absorbed, in order to provide absorption of heat taken from at least one heat transfer element (11). By means of this, both heat absorption and electricity production during this heat absorption can be realized. Among the usage areas of the subject matter heat transfer system (1); the following can be mentioned: any type of heat transfer process, areas where the waste heat exists, HVAC systems, vehicles, systems which obtain heat from solar energy in areas where external heat sources exist.

In the first unit (10) of the heat transfer system (1 ), there is said heat transfer element (11 ). This heat transfer element (11 ) provides transfer of the heat, desired to be absorbed, from an outer medium to the heat transfer system (1 ). The heat, which is desired to be absorbed, is preferably waste heat. Extra energy is not consumed for obtaining this heat. Thanks to this, the heat transfer system (1) produces energy from costless waste heat. For providing this, the heat transfer element (11) used in absorbing heat can be shaped in different types in accordance with the place where said heat transfer element (11 ) shall be used. In a possible embodiment of the invention, the heat transfer element (11) can have a type like plate-type heat transfer, pipe-type heat transfer. The heat absorbed by means of the heat transfer element (11) is transferred to at least one first fluid. Said first fluid is a non-conductive fluid such that when said first fluid is compressed and when its temperature is reduced, it can pass from gas to liquid form in accordance with operation conditions.

The first fluid is rotated in a closed cycle in the first unit (10). For doing this, at least one turbine (12) and at least one pump (13) are positioned on the first unit (10). Said turbine (12) is the part where the first fluid, whose kinetic increases by means of waste heat, is expanded. Here, rotational movement is obtained depending on passage of the first fluid to gas phase. The turbine is configured to drive the pump (13) by means of at least one movement transfer element (14). The movement transfer element (14) mentioned in the invention is preferably a shaft. The movement transfer element (14) drives the pump (13) by means of the movement energy obtained in the turbine (12). The pump (13) pumps the first fluid, which passes to liquid phase after passing through the turbine (12), by means of the drive obtained from the turbine (12) and again to the heat transfer element (11), and provides continuity of the cycle. Here, since the pump (13) is driven by the turbine (12), any outsourced consumption is not realized.

At least one valve (15) is positioned on the first unit (10). Said valve (15) is preferably a unidirectional check valve. By means of this, during rotation of the first fluid continuously in a cycle by the pump (13), the flow of the first fluid in the reverse direction is prevented. For doing this, the valve (15) is preferably positioned between the pump (13) and the heat transfer element (11 ) and prevents advance of the first fluid towards the pump (13).

There is at least one transfer chamber (16) on the first unit (10). Said transfer chamber (16) receives the turbine (12) and the pump (13) and enables holding of the first fluid therein and absorption of the heat thereof. Preferably the outer wall of this transfer chamber (16) can be made of a steel-like element and the inner wall of this transfer chamber (16) can be made of an insulating material which is resistant to high temperature/pressure. By means of this, during discharge of the first fluid from the turbine (12) and advancing of the first fluid by the pump (13), it accommodates the first fluid.

As mentioned, the second unit (20) enables production of electricity. In order to be able to realize this, there is at least one magnetic element (21 ) at the second unit (20). Said magnetic element (21) is positioned on the movement transfer element (14). Depending on the movement of the movement transfer element (14), the magnetic element (21 ) is also actuated. While doing this, when the condition where the movement transfer element (14) is a shaft is taken into consideration, the magnetic element (21) is continuously rotated around itself. The magnetic element (21) is preferably a non-conductor permanent magnet. Thanks to the magnetic element (21 ), a magnetic energized region is formed around.

There is at least one conductor pipe (22) on the second unit (20). Said conductor pipe (22) provides cooling of the first fluid from one side and enables electricity production from the other side. In order to be able to realize this, the conductor pipe (22) is preferably encircled around the magnet such that at least one part shall be winded. At least one second fluid passes through the conductor pipe (22) and cools and condenses the first fluid discharged into the transfer chamber (16). The conductor pipe (22) can preferably be made of copper. By means of this, both heat conductance and electrical conductance of the conductor pipe (22) are high. As said second fluid, an insulating fluid is preferred which has high heat conductance and which does not change phase when heated. By means of this, by means of rotation of the magnetic element (21) inside the conductor pipe (22), electrical current can be produced.

There is at least one energy unit (23) on the second unit (20). Said energy unit (23) provides accumulation or transfer of the electricity received through the conductor pipe (22). In a possible embodiment of the present invention, the energy unit (23) is a battery. By means of this, the electricity obtained in the second unit (20) can be accumulated. In another embodiment of the invention, the energy unit (23) is connected to the mains supply. By means of this, the electricity taken from the conductor pipe (22) can be transferred to a predetermined location without storing electricity.

In a possible usage of the invention, the heat transfer system (1 ) can be started in two different manners. The first one of these is actuation of the first fluid towards the heat transfer element (11). By means of this, heat transfer begins depending on the movement of the first fluid and the first operation is provided. During this process, since the reverse directional movement of the valve (15) is prevented, the desired beginning movement is given. In another possible beginning movement of the invention, the energy unit (23) energizes the conductor pipe (22), and depending on this, the magnet and the movement transfer element (14) are actuated. By means of actuation of the movement transfer element (14), the pump (13) and the turbine (12) are also actuated and the first operation movement is provided.

After providing of the first movement, the heat transfer element (11 ) provides absorbing of heat from a waste heat source and transfer to the first fluid. By means of this, the first fluid passes from liquid phase to gas phase, and the kinetic thereof is increased. Afterwards, the first fluid is carried to the turbine (12). The first fluid, which hits the turbine (12) flaps, actuates the turbine (12) and the kinetic thereof is decreased. The first fluid, which exits the turbine (12), moves towards the pump (13) in the transfer chamber (16). During this process, the first fluid is cooled again by means of the second fluid moved inside the conductor pipe (22), and heat absorption is completed. Then, the first fluid is advanced to the heat transfer element (11) again by means of the pump (13).

In the heat transfer system, electricity production is also realized besides heat absorption. For providing this, the second unit (20) is operated. At the second unit (20), the magnetic element (21) which exists on the movement transfer element (14) rotated by the turbine (12) is also rotated. Depending on this rotational movement, magnetic field on the conductor wire changes and electrical current is produced. The produced electricity is transmitted to the energy unit (23) and the operation process is repeated in this manner.

Together with all these embodiments, thanks to the heat transfer system (1), both absorption of the waste heat and electricity production are provided. Additionally, while heat absorption is being realized, extra energy consumption by the pump (13) is prevented.

The protection scope of the present invention is set forth in the annexed claims and cannot be restricted to the illustrative disclosures given above, under the detailed description. It is because a person skilled in the relevant art can obviously produce similar embodiments under the light of the foregoing disclosures, without departing from the main principles of the present invention.
