DEVICES CONTROLLED BY GRAVITATION HEAT TUBES FOR GENERATING COLD AND / OR WARM BY MEANS OF A REACTION BETWEEN A SOLID BODY AND A GAS.

摘要

Device for producing cold and/or heat by solid-gas reaction, intended to be used, for example, for air conditioning, including reactor chambers, each chamber being intended to contain a reagent formed from a mixture of a salt and an expanded product which is a good thermal conductor, the reagent being able to react through absorption with a gas according to an exothermic reaction, the device including moreover, a passage for a fluid to be cooled and a passage for a fluid to be heated. According to the invention, the device includes reactor chambers connected together pairwise, the transfer of heat between the reactor chambers and with the fluid being afforded by heat pipes of the gravitational type.
