Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a device for cooling the lower atmosphere, comprising a support sleeve filled with a buoyant carrier gas, wherein at least one air-conducting tube is arranged in parallel in the support sleeve, the lower end of the air-conducting tube being positioned in the lower atmosphere, in particular close to the Earth's surface, wherein the upper end of the air-conducting tube is positioned in the upper atmosphere, in particular in the upper troposphere or in the stratosphere. Background Art

[0002] Devices and processes for mitigating global warming of the earth are known from the prior art, comprising vertical pipes for moving warm air from the earth's surface to the upper layers of the atmosphere. JP2015102291 discloses a pipe that transports warm air from the ground floor of a high-rise building to its roof, where the warm air is discharged, warming the upper layers of the atmosphere, thereby increasing their heat radiation to space, and cooling the air near the earth's surface due to the natural flow between the upper and lower layers of the atmosphere. Other known devices for mitigating global warming move warm air from the earth's surface to a higher position, above a layer in the troposphere with a high concentration of greenhouse gases, which prevent heat from radiating from the earth's surface to space. WO2021038008A1 discloses a device comprising a chimney for moving warm air from the earth's surface through the troposphere and the tropopause to the lower layers of the stratosphere. JPH1070941 describes a pipe for moving warm air from the earth's surface to above clouds, which would otherwise prevent heat from the earth's surface from radiating to space. The disadvantage of these devices (which include chimneys, pipes, tubes, etc. for moving warm air from the Earth's surface to the upper layers of the atmosphere) is that they do not include suitable technical means for synchronous and local cooling of the lower layers of the atmosphere and rely solely on the action of natural vertical flows, which may lead to unpredictable variations in the natural vertical flows of the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in unexpected and undesirable cooling / warming of various parts of the Earth's surface, leading to undesirable atmospheric phenomena and lower device efficiency.

[0003] The object of the present invention is therefore to eliminate or at least reduce the disadvantages of the prior art by means of a device which will allow, alone or as part of a system for mitigating global warming, to effectively cool the lower layers of the atmosphere at selected locations. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the invention is achieved by a device for cooling the lower layer of the atmosphere, the device comprising a support sleeve filled with a buoyant carrier gas, wherein at least one air conducting tube is arranged in parallel in the support sleeve, wherein the lower end of the air conducting tube is positioned in the lower layer of the atmosphere, in particular close to the earth's surface, wherein the upper end of the air conducting tube is positioned in the upper layer of the atmosphere, in particular in the upper troposphere or in the stratosphere, wherein at least one air return tube is assigned to the air conducting tube, the upper end of the air return tube being assigned to the upper end of the air conducting tube, wherein the lower end of the air tube is spaced apart from the lower end of the air conducting tube, and the support sleeve is provided with a connection for filling and discharging the buoyant carrier gas.

[0005] The device cools the lower atmosphere at a selected location by discharging cooled air removed from the lower atmosphere at another, more distant location, thereby minimizing mixing of the removed air with the discharged cooled air and increasing the efficiency of the device operation. In addition, the device eliminates or at least reduces leakage of cooled air into the upper atmosphere and the associated pressure drop of the cooled air at the upper end of the air return duct, thereby further increasing the efficiency of the device operation.

[0006] Preferred embodiments of the device for cooling the lower layer of the atmosphere are subject matter of the dependent claims. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
