My name is Pranab Jyoti Ghosh, I am an Indian physics graduate and
myself have theoretically developed a technology on producing energy
without any kind of fuel. This technology is about producing energy by
extracting heat from atmosphere. This technology is a combination of
processes that are well tested and now in use in different industries
and research projects. I have done everything that I can do by myself.
But for further advance, I need financial and technical assistance. I
specifically want to make a virtual prototype by using data from
different experiments that I have collected from different industries
and research projects and after that get a patent and start licensing
this technology. Those who are reading this message, other than the
venture capitalists, are requested to guide me to persons,
organizations, institutes and others, who can probably take interest
in my work and will help me to make my idea a reality. I am assuring
them that this project is just need to be made and improved. All the
basic experiments had been already done successfully and enough data
had been gathered. In short, it is a new and exciting kind of
technology and as far as I know, nothing like this exists this day.
Can anybody help me to make my idea a reality?
I have posted this idea on some blogsites and got responses like this.
“Violating 2nd law of thermodynamics”, “impossible”, “the vapor
produced will be instantly liquefied as soon as it will be released
into normal pressure etc and other arguments like this. But, when I
have replied them with my logic and put before them the experimental
results, there will be no solid reply thereafter. Actually all the
oppositions come from, in my opinion, from wrong interpretation of 2nd
law of thermodynamics. In this explanation, heat embedded in
atmosphere and ocean around us are part of entropy and trying to
extracting the heat is trying to decrease the entropy of the universe
and as per 2nd law, entropy always increases. But, this is not true,
because machines that can extract atmospheric heat and capable of
converting that into electricity had been invented long ago, before
the birth of Christ. Long ago (nearly 500 B.C), Chinese people
invented a toy that extracts heat energy from the atmosphere and turns
that into motion. Though I called it a toy, because it was never used
for production purpose. But according to the terminologies of physics,
it is an engine, because it converts one type of energy (heat) into
other type of energy (motion). In fact, it is a thermodynamic engine.
You will find the description of that toy on books on popular science.
So, at least there is one example that atmospheric energy can be
extracted and turn into motion energy. I think it is enough to prove
the basic scientific feasibility of my work. In spite of that, if
somebody still complaining that my project violates second law of
thermodynamics. Then I am requesting him to calculate the entropy of
my project. None have tried that yet, because I am sure that if they
do so, they certainly will find that at the end of the process,
entropy of the universe has increased, instead of decreased as they
want the result to prove that this technology violates 2nd law of
thermodynamics. For understanding of the readers, I am giving below a
short zest of my technology.
This project is aimed at producing electricity by using the vast heat
content of atmosphere. The scheme is basically aimed as producing
electricity by extracting heat from atmosphere. In this project, this
is done by using mechanical arrangement similar to heat pump. This
system is used to squeeze energy from huge volumes of air and to
produce temperature difference by which energy can be produced. It is
to be noted that fresh water and salt are added bonus to this project,
as salty brackish water can be used in this project. This is done by
vaporizing water inside an enclosed container named “Evaporator” with
the help of a vacuum pump. As the vacuum pump sucks air from the
container, the water inside began to evaporate and in this process
collects its latent heat of vaporization from water. For that reason,
the water inside becomes colder and heat began to flow in from
outside. Thus in effect, the latent heat of vaporization of water is
collected from outside atmosphere. In the open-cycle OTEC, vapor is
produced in the same manner and on experiment it was found that to
have vapor flow rate of 1 kg/sec, power needed at the vacuum pump is 3
KW. Whereas, the latent heat embedded in 1 kg of vapor is 2.31 MW.
After the vapor is produced, it is heated further with adiabatically
compressed, hot air. After heating the vapor in the Boiler, the hot,
compressed air is passed through the Evaporator to give up its residue
heat to the water inside. The process is the same as that of common
heat pumps sold in the market. And finally, the temp. diff. between
the Boiler and the Condenser is created by suddenly releasing the
compressed air at the Condenser. And thus a system of real efficiency
of >50% is created.
