Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2011128898A2] A generator comprising a heat differential module, a pressure module, a conversion module and a heat recovery arrangement; the heat differential module comprising at least a first, high temperature reservoir configured for containing a work medium at high temperature, a second, low temperature reservoir configured for containing a work medium at low temperature and a heat mechanism being in fluid communication with at least one of the reservoirs. The heat mechanism is configured for maintaining a temperature difference therebetween by providing heat to and/or removing heat from the reservoirs; the pressure module comprises a pressure medium in selective fluid communication with the reservoirs of the heat differential module for alternately performing a heat exchange process with the work medium thereof. The pressure medium is configured to fluctuate between a minimal operative temperature and a maximal operative temperature of the pressure medium corresponding to the high and low temperature of the work medium; the conversion module is in mechanical communication with the pressure medium and configured for utilizing temperature changes of the pressure medium for the production of output energy; the heat recovery arrangement is in thermal communication with the heat differential module and configured for absorbing heat from the pressure medium and providing heat to the heat differential module or to the pressure module.
