Abstract

The invention is an energy converter in the form of a closed loop containing a medium that is capable of absorbing heat from an external heat source in a high temperature reservoir and producing AC electricity while delivering a portion of the heat to a cold temperature reservoir and then returning the medium to the high temperature reservoir The converter (fig 1) comprises two half cycles - the first from a hot location to a colder one (118) and the second from cold to hot (120) that are connected to form a complete cycle The external heat source, which provides the required heat to the converter, can be essentially any heat source, e g a nuclear power station, an air condition system, a compressor, etc In one preferred embodiment the heat source is solar radiation and in another preferred embodiment the heat source is a vehicle engine In contrast to conventional industrial power plants, the present system does not use energy consuming machinery such as compressors or pumps The working substance of the energy converter of the invention is a ferromixture, which replaces superheated steam that is usually utilized in conventional power plants to drive a turbine
