    摘要: A method of energy storage comprises receiving input energy (1) and using the input energy to compress (2) air or other process gas to produce a compressed process gas. The compressed process gas is stored (8). The compressed process gas is expanded (16) to generate output energy (17). Heat is transferred (5) from the process gas, before the process gas is stored (8) as a compressed process gas, to a hydrogen production process (10). The transferred heat is used in the hydrogen production process (10). The hydrogen may be stored (13) and subsequently used to heat to provide heat prior to, during, or after expanding (16) the compressed gas.

    摘要: A floating heat pump system including a superstructure supporting a wind turbine and at least one electric generator mechanically connected to the wind turbine. Wind-induced rotation of the wind turbine causes the electric generator to generate electricity. The generated electricity may be supplied to a power grid, or a portion of the generated electricity may be used to power a heat pump also supported at least in part by the superstructure to extract heat from the ocean or another large body of water. The heat may be stored in transportable thermal storage medium. Heat stored in the thermal storage media may be used at the system or remotely for regional or district heating and cooling, industrial purposes, or to generate electricity.

    摘要: A thermal heat storage system is provided, including a storage tank, a heat injection system and a heat recovery system. The storage tank holds a material for thermal storage. The heat injection system is coupled to an intake on the storage tank. The heat recovery system is coupled to an output on the storage tank and also uses vapor under depressurized conditions for heat transfer.

    摘要: The induction heating device that heats a heating medium includes a rotor having a rotation shaft, a heating part disposed to be opposed to the rotor at a distance, a magnetic flux generating part provided at the rotor to generate magnetic flux for the heating part, and a flow passage provided along the heating part to allow the heating medium to circulate. The flow passage has an inlet to supply the heating medium on one side in a direction along the heating part and an outlet to discharge the heating medium on the other side. The distance between the magnetic flux generating part and the heating part is larger on the outlet side than on the inlet side of the flow passage.

    摘要: An induction heating device includes: a rotor having a rotation shaft; a heating part disposed to be opposed to the rotor at a distance; a magnetic flux generating part provided at the rotor to generate magnetic flux for the heating part; a magnetic flux guide part provided on an opposed surface side of the heating part that is opposed to the magnetic flux generating part to guide the magnetic flux from the magnetic flux generating part to the heating part; and a flow passage provided in the heating part to allow a heating medium to circulate. The magnetic flux guide part includes magnetic substance parts. The magnetic flux guide part has a structure in which the magnetic substance parts and the insulator parts extend along a direction from the magnetic flux generating part to the heating part and are alternately layered along a circumferential direction of the heating part.
