Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2018015199A1] A combined refrigeration and power plant (10). The power plant (10) comprises an internal combustion engine (16) an air cycle machine refrigerator (45) driven by the internal combustion engine (16) and configured to refrigerate atmospheric air to provide working fluid to a combined refrigeration and power generation cycle, a refrigerated air storage unit (62) configured to store working fluid produced by the air cycle machine refrigerator; and first and second heat exchangers (15, 27). The first heat exchanger arrangement (15) is configured to exchange heat between a device to be cooled (14) and the working fluid, and the second heat exchanger arrangement (27) is configured to exchange heat between the working fluid downstream of the first heat exchanger (15) in the combined refrigeration and power generation cycle and waste heat from the internal combustion engine (16); and a generator turbine (42) configured to receive heated working fluid from the second heat exchanger arrangement (27), and configured to power an electrical generator (12).
