Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1582826A1] A heat pump for cyclic vapor compression comprises a supercritical high-pressure side, a direct vaporizer (1) low-pressure collector (2), compressor, gas cooler (4) and throttle (5) all in series in a working fluid flow. The direct vaporizer is embedded in the earth with evaporating lines thermally contacting the earth. An independent claim is also included for an operating process for the above.
