Graham Power, a new method of generating power

a new generation method and power technology, applied in steam engine plants, machines/engines, mechanical equipment, etc., can solve the problems of reducing the efficiency of the compression process, affecting the efficiency of the turbine, the generator and the motor, and the inability to meet the needs of the operation, so as to reduce the cost of air conditioning and the effect of useful power and revolutionizing the generation of power

Benefits of technology

[0009] Graham Power is much more than an air-conditioning system. It is a power generating system that has the potential to revolutionizes the generation of power. Graham Power recycles the very fuel that it uses to generate power. Once self-sustaining Graham Power will continue to run until the system is turned off, breaks down or a leak occurs. Graham Power does not consume fuel nor does it release CO2 gas to the environment. It simply draws heat from the surrounding air and transforms it into useful power. In the process of extracting heat from the environment, it cools the surrounding air. This cooling effect is beneficial to the environment.
[0010] Whether the system produce a little or much power it will lower the costs of air conditioning dramatically. If the system proves to be self sustaining it will eliminate the cost of air conditioning. Air Conditioning is the largest consumer of power in the US today. If the system produces excess power it can be designed to produce sufficient power to run a house. No matter how much power this system produces it will make conventional air conditioning obsolete.

Problems solved by technology

The compression process consumes approximately 18 to 20% of the energy produced from the evaporation process, plus inefficiencies and friction.
Normally there are considerable inefficiencies in a turbine, generator and motor.
Once self-sustaining Graham Power will continue to run until the system is turned off, breaks down or a leak occurs.

Embodiment Construction

[0013]FIG. 1 embodies a concept of this invention. Motor / generator 1 is connected by common shaft 13 to compressor 2 and turbine 3. These three components work as follows. When the motor / generator 1 is turned on, valve 10 is opened and motor / generator 1 drives compressor 2 and turbine 3. As the expanding refrigerant gas begins to drive turbine 3, less power is drawn from motor / generator 1. Once turbine 3 generates sufficient power to drive the compressor 2 no power is drawn from motor / generator 1. When turbine 3 generates more power than compressor 2 requires the motor / generator 1 will produce electricity which is feed back into the electrical grid. In most applications the motor / generator 1 will be two separate units, a motor and a generator connected to shaft 13. The embodiment of motor / generator 1 contained herein is designed to convey the concept rather than the engineering details.

Abstract

Titled “Graham Power, A New Method of Generating Power” inventor David Graham. Graham power is a power plant. In its simplest form, it is an air conditioning / refrigerant system which also produces power. This is accomplished by adding a turbine to an air-conditioning system. The evaporation process extract heat from the air and the turbine converts that heat into power. In fact it is a power generating system. Graham Power recycles the very fuel that it uses. Graham Power does not consume fuel nor does it release CO2 gas to the environment. It simply draws heat from the surrounding air and transforms it into useful power. In the process of extracting heat from the environment it cools the air. This cooling effect is beneficial to the atmosphere which is currently overheating.

Description

[0001] Be it known that I, David J Graham, a Citizen of Canada, residing in Edmonton, Alberta, have invented a new method of generating power, which I choose for lack of a better word to call Graham Power. The title of this invention is “Graham Power, A New Method of Generating Power”. This is a utility patent application, under the provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) which was proceeded by a Provisional Application for Patent of the same name filled by David J. Graham on Oct. 24, 2006 Application No. 60 / 853,724. The country code for the priority application is U.S. 60 / 853,724. CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0002] Not applicable. STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0003] Not applicable. REFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING, A TABLE, OR A COMPUTER PROGRAM LISTING COMPACT DISC APPENDIX [0004] Not applicable. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0005] In the thermodynamics of heat engines the working fluid is generally air and CO2. For example in a jet engine the c...
