- Appl. No:
17/193695
- Application Filed:
March 05, 2021
- نبذة مختصرة :
A heat recovery system includes a compressor, a solar panel, and a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger in fluid connection to form a closed circuit. The compressor is configured to facilitate fluid movement in the fluid circuit between the solar panel, the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger. The solar panel includes a plurality of solar cells connected in parallel, and each solar cell includes a plurality of metal tubes for fluid to pass through. A temperature sensor is mounted within each of the solar cells and configured to measure temperature inside the respective solar cell. Each solar cell is connected to the circuit via a respective pressure valve, and the status of the pressure valve is configured to depend on the measurement of the temperature sensor in the respective solar cell.

- Claim:
1. A method of recovering heat and energy comprising: feeding excess heat and waste products emitted as a result of fuel combustion into a mixing chamber comprising a first heat exchanger coupled with a fluid containing conduit circuit; feeding air into the mixing chamber for initiating a reaction with the waste products to produce a reaction product with potential energy; effectuating heat energy exchange through the reaction product and excess heat interacting with the first heat exchanger, whereby temperature and pressure of fluid within the first heat exchanger and fluid circuit connected to the first heat exchanger rises; pressurizing fluid by a compressor contained in the fluid circuit, by utilizing heat energy from the exhaust gas and waste products emitted as the result of fuel combustion and by utilizing thermal energy obtained from a solar panel; and exchanging heat energy by forcing air over a second heat exchanger that is in fluid communication with the pressurized fluid containing conduit circuit exteriorly of the mixing chamber.
- Claim:
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the solar panel includes a plurality of solar cells connected in parallel.
- Claim:
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein a temperature sensor is mounted within each of the plurality of solar cells, and configured to measure temperature inside the respective solar cell, and wherein each solar cell is connected to the conduit circuit via a respective pressure valve, and the status of the pressure valve is configured to depend on the measurement of the temperature sensor in the respective solar cell.
- Claim:
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein a respective pressure valve is configured to open when the measurement of a respective temperature sensor in a respective solar cell is above a certain threshold.
- Claim:
5. The method of claim 3 , wherein a respective pressure valve is configured to close when the measurement of the respective temperature sensor is below a certain threshold.
- Claim:
6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the solar panel further includes a bypass channel for fluid to pass there through when all the pressure valves are closed.
