Definitions
- This invention relates generally to the transformation of the kinetic energy into electrical power, more specifically to a method and system for the generation of electrical power by storing compressed air associated to the movement of objects or bodies and the usage of said stored compressed air for the actuation of a motor/generator set.
- Oil refineries can pose huge threats to the environment.
- Harvesting, processing, and distributing fossil fuels create problems such as oil spills, massive fires, soil poisoning and decrease air quality.
- offshore oil drilling may create a hazard for aquatic organisms and big spills can affect miles and miles of shorelines.
- Coal mining methods, particularly mountaintop removal and strip mining, have been causes for concern.
- Transportation of coal requires the use of diesel-powered locomotives, while crude oil is typically transported by tanker ships. Each of these requires the combustion of fossil fuels.
- environmental-awareness groups are encouraging consumers to shy away of oil, coal and nuclear generated power in favor of cleaner alternatives such as sun-powered cells and windmills. Windmills while a clean alternative based on a free resource, it is dependent of weather behavior to a point at which if air currents are non -existent, power will not be generated.
- One prior art attempt provides a regenerative heat storage compressed air power system wherein the heat of compression is stored underground in a compressed air storage cavern when it is cooled and thereafter stored in an air storage cavern. When energy is needed, the air is drawn back through the heat storage cavern where it is heated and then applied to assist in the heating of gases passing between the turbines.
- Another prior art attempt provides a method of electricity production wherein a plurality of windmills turn air compressors and the air is stored in a storage tank sealed by water and is available for work such as driving an air turbine to operate an electric generator. It is also known to use a wind operated heating system wherein wind, through a cyclic control device, communicates with heat storing liquid in pipes stored in a thermally insulated tank.
- the fluid in the pipes begins to oscillate in a motion which produces viscous dissipation and heat which may be distributed to an enclosure.
- the prior art also provides a heating and cooling system capable of using solar heat.
- a tank of liquid is heated by solar heat which in turn warms stones in a container.
- a blower circulates air from a space to be heated through a filter into the container where the stones warm the air. The warmed air is then circulated back to the space to be heated.
- the invention comprises a movement absorption element that selectively directs air into a pipeline system whenever said movement absorption element is actuated.
- the pipeline system is interconnected to a compressing device which facilitates the flow of air into an air storage tank.
- a motor/generator set is connected to the air storage tank through the pipeline system. The motor/generator set is configured to provide electrical power to an exterior load when said motor is actuated by the compressed air stored in the storage tank.
- V is the volume [m3] of the vessel containing n moles of gas, n is the amount of substance of gas [mol],
- R is the gas constant [8.314472 m3 Pa K-l mol-1],
- T is the temperature in kelvins [K].
- R The ideal gas constant (R) depends on the units used in the formula. The value given above, 8.314472, is for the SI units of pascal cubic meters per mole per kelvin, which is equal to joule per mole per kelvin (J mol-1 K-I ). Another value for R is 0.082057 L atm mol-l K-1)
- R has a different value for each different unit of pressure and the other quantities used.
- the compressed air electrical power generator can be of great use to a small entity as the air that is compressed and later stored may not only come from the power generated by windmills or water currents, but from a foot operated pedal or a car weight-operated apparatus installed on a driveway or road.
- the compressed air is stored for later use and may be use as a back-up way for powering a house that is primarily served by the local electricity supply company.
- FIG. 1 shows an energy conversion system according to a preferred embodiment of invention.
- FIG. 2 shows a macro diagram of the energy conversion system according to a preferred embodiment of invention.
- Fig. 1 shows a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
- the system of the present invention comprises a movement absorption element 1 that generates a movement every time a force is applied against any of its surfaces.
- the movement absorption element 1 experiences a linear compression/decompression effect every time a force is applied against one of its surfaces.
- at least one movement absorption element 1 is adapted to be position below a street road 7. When a vehicle 8 travels over the road 7, the weight of the vehicle 8 imposes a gravitational linear force against the road which in turns applies a proportional force against the movement absorption element 1.
- additional movement absorption elements 1 can be adapted to be positioned below other surfaces.
- an additional movement absorption element 1 is positioned below a sidewalk 10.
- a pipeline system 2 is interconnected to said movement absorption elements 1 to allow the flow and distribution of air throughout the system
- a compressor 3 is connected to said pipeline system 2 and adapted to direct to flow of air to a storage tank 5 which in turn is connected to a motor/generator set 6.
- the motor/generator set 6 comprises a pneumatic motor and an electric generator.
- other types of motors could be used such as : thermodynamic and hydraulic motors depending on the application.
- the output of the electric generator is selectively connected to supply electrical energy to an external load 11.
- FIG. 2 shows a general diagram of the power conversion system of the invention.
- the first part of the invention is represented by block 1.
- the movement absorption element of the invention can be implemented in a variety of embodiments. For example, it can be positioned below a parking lot, so that the vehicle traffic imposes the necessary weight to actuate the movement absorption element. In another embodiment, it can be selectively connected to a railway so that the weight and/or the movement of a train actuates the movement absorption element. Alternatively, the motion generated by windmills or the flow of water at a dam can be advantageously used to actuate the movement absorption element. It is also envisioned, that the movement absorption element can be adapted to a flexible fluid pipe system.
- the flexible pipe When installed in a residential environment, every time a person actuates a fluid flow regulating element such as a water faucet or shower or uses the washer machine; the flexible pipe will be compressed/decompressed. The compression/decompression effect will actuate the movement absorption element according to the invention.
- the concept of the invention is to combine all the direct and indirect movement received in any direction to generate electrical power by means of the inventive concept.
- the compressed air is directed to a storage tank 5.
- the compressed air can be directed to any storage element.
- a storage element can be adapted to positioned inside a power distribution pole or any kind of utility pole such as cable TV, telephone or telegraphic poles, inside a wall of a residential or commercial structure, or below ground or road level.
- the storage tank 5 is adapted to be integrated into existing structures.
- the storage tank unit may be disposed in or on any surface of a structure, such as a roof, a ceiling, a wall, a column or a floor of commercial or residential structures.
- the air stored in the tank is directed to a motor/generator set 6 to produce electrical power usable by any external load 11.
- the generated power can be directly connected to residential/commercial structure to serve as a primary power source. Alternatively, it can be connected through an electrical transfer switch in order to provide backup or supplemental power to any residential/commercial structure. It is also envisioned, that the electrical power generated by the system can be connected to a utility power distribution/transmission system to supplement the power grid and/or sell it to the utility power company.
- Another embodiment of the invention uses the inverse polarity to repel two magnets.
- One of the magnets is disposed on a substantially bottom portion of a vehicle and the other magnet is disposed on the top portion of a movement absorption element. When the vehicle is right above the movement absorption element the magnets will repel each other, thus causing the movement absorption element to be pressed down and to go back to its original position once the vehicle is substantially far.
- Another of the embodiments of the invention utilizes pressurized air with temperatures lower than its surrounding environment to provide with an air conditioning sub-system. Field tests show that the temperature of the environment was lower as measures were taken closer to the storage tank. On large- scales vectorial energy conversion systems, some of the cold air could be redirected to an air conditioning sub-system. An additional benefit will be savings on electricity consumption due to the fact that no electrical energy will be needed to cool down air or water.
- Another embodiment of the invention utilizes the counterweight of an elevator system to move a cylinder/piston arrangement.
- the movement of the cylinder/piston arrangement generates the air that can be compressed and stored for electrical energy generation.
- a system of weights is disposed on the body of the storage tank unit The weights are moved by a small amount of compressed air leaving the storage tank unit Movement of the weights will cause air to be generated, this air can also be used to generate power
