Abstract (en)

[origin: US4422297A] Mechanical power is generated by a process comprising (a) progressive vaporization of a mixture of fluids, (b) expansion of the resultant vapor, (c) condensation of the vapor and (d) recycling to step (a) of the liquid phase obtained in step (c). The heat exchanges are effected counter-currently, thus providing parallel evolutions of temperature. The condensation is effected in a temperature interval of from 7 DEG to 30 DEG C.
