Abstract (en)

[origin: DE10131072C1] Process for heat transformation comprises dividing a steam stream, especially a saturated steam stream, in a vortex device into a heated partial stream and a cooled partial stream. Condensation occurs in the cooled partial stream and after the pressure is increased the condensate absorbs the heat of the heated partial stream and evaporates. The steam after work output in a machine tool is recycled into the turbulent flow. A residual steam quantity consisting of the heated partial stream of the last vortex device (W3) and the spent steam of the last machine tool (T3) is compressed by a steam compressor (K) and fed to a vortex device (W). Preferred Features: The residual steam quantity is compressed to the starting value. Each transformation stage has a turbine (T1-T3).
