DESCRIPTION
BIFASSIC THERMAL TRANSMISSION SYSTEM TECHNICAL SECTOR
This invention is framed within thermal transmission systems by heat transfer fluids spaced through a network of conduits, for use that includes industries such as thermo-solar, cooling and / or heating of engines and / or elements that require thermal transmission beyond the local transmission as well as air conditioning, heating, hot water generation and / or water vapor.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The strong growth and demand for energy of the last decades together with the limitation of resources, its continuous increase and, in turn, the incorporation of relatively new concepts such as ecological footprint and the wintering effect, are developing thermal transmission systems every time in a step beyond the frontier of efficiency, effectiveness and energetic sustainability.
There have been major changes in the improvement of insulators, materials, fluids, accessories and design, although there have been few changes in thermal transfer systems, which originate mainly in two concepts. On the one hand the certification entities and the applicable legislation in thermal installations comprise a very specific field of operation in them, in their transmission systems. On the other hand, the developers of the thermal installation product invest in the evolution of their products in accordance with the applicable legislation, leaving therefore the transfer system and its evolution in an unchanging background, although, a whole new range of products can be developed from a development of it.
The current thermal transmission systems are divided mainly into two groups, those whose thermal exchange cycle develops with a heat transfer fluid in a single state (single phase), generally as liquids and those in

which its heat transfer fluid is presented in two (biphasic) states, generally as liquid vapor.
The two-phase systems basically consist of two systems, those based generally on boilers or exchangers of continuous evaporation of demineralized water and those that compress-decompress a vapor-liquid by means of a motor (compressor). The former, as described above, have boilers or exchangers of continuous evaporation of demineralized water at 100 ° C together with a steam superheater whose final temperature adapts to the needs, with pressures always higher than atmospheric, transferring by high pressure and steam / gas temperature at the points of use-exchange and subsequently discarded into the environment or returned to the generation point, in a semi-closed or open cycle depending on the installation, transferring heat and mechanical energy in some cases throughout the process . In these systems lies the disadvantage of being obliged to maintain high temperatures, higher than 120 ° C to avoid saturation in the circuit, even if there is no demand or it is low, being very inefficient in this state because the various losses tend to stay linear by system operating time. The second group, those that compress-decompress a vapor, generally use heat-carrying fluids referred to as refrigerant fluids, gaseous at ambient temperatures and pressures, in a closed hermetic circuit, where, under the mechanical action of a compressor element they are compressed and liquefied, yielding heat to the reference system 1, and subsequently conducted and expanded again absorbing heat from the reference system 2, its range of primary exchange temperatures are limited to approximate ranges of -40 ° C to 60 ° C, consume great energy during the process Due to the great mechanical work of the compressor, they also have thermal losses due to friction in it and those due to the conversion of electrical energy into mechanics by their motor.
The other group, the most common and most widely used are those systems that work with a heat transfer fluid or mixture of fluids in a liquid state and pressures higher than atmospheric. In general, they are based on the semi-closed circulation of additives demineralized water, which being cooled or heated to minimum and maximum temperatures between 3 ° C and 90 ° C in a cooling device or boiler respectively, is circulated, thus giving up energy Calories all those points of use-exchange. This system has the disadvantages of requiring elements of permanent acceleration of the fluid to flow to the points of use, such as

circulating pumps, and since the kinematic water viscosity Kquida is relatively high, there are large losses in the forced circulation of the fluid associated with the mechanical work of the circulating pump, in addition to a large dimensioning of the conduits in relation to that same phenomenon, although it also requires the installation of elements that allow the expansion of the incompressible nature of the liquids according to the temperature variations thereof. Gravity and changes in liquid density are also used in some cases according to their temperature (thermosiphon effect), although they do not require a mechanical element accelerating the fluid, the kinematic viscosity of the liquid together with the small variation in the density of the same for each degree of temperature, makes this system a bad alternative when efficiency and effectiveness are requirements to be taken into account, since they require high emitter-receiver temperature gradients and therefore high thermal losses in the emitter.
As you can see a single phase (liquid) thermal transmission system although conceptually its theoretical operation is simple, it is not so its installation and continuous service since it requires various elements that decrease its efficiency, effectiveness, reliability, durability and intrinsic safety.
Therefore, it is the object of the present invention to develop a thermal transmission system that overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks, developing a system such as the one described below and is reflected in its essentiality in the first revindication.
EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION
Having said the above and taking into account, among others, the difficulties presented in the current technique, the invention constitutes a two-phase thermal transmission system with improved characteristics to the previous ones, based on the technique of thermal exploitation of the tendency to thermodynamic equilibrium of fluids and Your steam pressure
Considering first, that all liquid / steam absorbs / yields a large amount of energy in the form of heat based on a change from liquid state to steam or vapor to liquid, in process that is quantified with the physical concept of latent heat of a fluid based on its enthalpy of change of state, and that this design also uses not only energy in the form of heat based on its change of state of its fluid but

also its specific heat in both states. Therefore, it is a hybrid system of the previous ones that has outstanding characteristics between both gas-vapor and liquid thermal transfer systems at the same time.
Considering that any liquid is capable of being evaporated in the absolute ford from the known as triple point, that there are infinite molecular groups both pure and mixed that are stable and safe liquids with calorific capacities, serving as an example, liquid water, which weighs It seems striking, it has a boiling temperature in the ford of 1 ° C. On the other hand, liquids in a liquid state confined in a constant volume can maintain their liquid state at very high temperatures since their own steam balances the pressure to a stable point or what is known as thermodynamic vapor pressure equilibrium, if Well this effect has a limit at a point known as the critical point, where the vapor-liquid cannot coexist as clearly differentiated elements, in case of water this point is from 22 Mpa. of pressure and 374 ° C. Therefore, pure water can be used, as an example in this two-phase thermal transfer system with an operating temperature range of 1 - 374 ° C.
Together these concepts, and considering a single constant volume equal to the sum of several volumes distanced in space, but connected to each other by means of pipes, describes what then composes the inventive innovation with industrial application as a thermal transfer system .
Basic system components:
- A heat transfer fluid capable of existing in the range of temperatures and operating pressures in two states (liquid and steam).
- A heat emitter with thermal transfer capacity to the fluid (steam) (radiator, exchanger, serpentm, fan coil, split, etc).
- A heat receiver with thermal transfer capacity to a fluid (liquid) within a closed system (solar collector, boiler, encapsulated electrical resistance, motor, device to be cooled).
- Round trip interconnection pipes.
- Load / service valve.
- The acceleration of the fluid in a liquid state towards the receiver by the gravitational action or other device that replaces it.

The functional explanation of the invention starts by considering the physical elements that constitute the total volume of the thermal transmission installation, as set out in the figures and as claimed, therefore the receiver, transmitter, outgoing pipe, pipe of return and valve of load in closed position, form a unique closed and hermetic volume. Together these, it would be necessary to understand the heat transfer fluid as a fluid that may exist within the range of operation, as a liquid in the liquid state and vapor (two-phase), therefore, free to occupy the entire volume of the installation in its liquid form and soda, which in practice is achieved by emptying the system and its subsequent integration by means of the load / service valve, or by integrating the fluid previously, and bringing it to a temperature at which its vapor pressure is higher than atmospheric and purge the air contained by accessories added for this purpose, such as traps.
Once the installation gathers the basic elements as claimed in such a way, that it is calculated that the volumetric capacity of the heat receiver is occupied of the fluid in a liquid state and with free steam output, therefore leaving the rest of the installation occupied by the vapor of the fluid, this will tend to constantly balance its thermodynamic state of pressure and temperature, henceforth PT, as long as T> P is complied with with respect to its characteristic curve of thermodynamic equilibrium PT saturation, considering as pure heat fluid, or those azeotropic and zeotropic mixtures.
Taking into account the above and from it, the circuit obeys three different possibilities of operation:
- Operation 1, temperature of the heat receiver equal to that of the heat emitter:
The fluid in the receiver is at the same temperature as the emitter, both being coincident with the equilibrium vapor pressure for a given temperature, there is no thermal exchange and the system remains in thermodynamic equilibrium with its own vapor.
- Operation 2, the heat receiver is at a higher temperature than the heat emitter:

In this case, the fluid contained in the receiver receives energy in the form of heat, increasing its temperature and pressure according to its characteristic PT diagram, but because the steam is free to circulate towards the heat emitter with lower pressure and temperature, fulfilling the thermodynamic imbalance in the T> P receptor, this thermodynamic deviation of the fluid in the receiver is compensated by evaporation of the fluid, whose molecules with more energy are vaporized and transferred as saturated steam or superheated steam due to pressure differences across the pipes going to the emitter / s, transporting energy qualifies equal to the enthalpy of vaporization characteristic of the fluid plus the specific heat of the superheated steam.
Once the steam has reached the emitter, the inverse thermodynamic phenomenon occurs to the receiver (T <P of thermodynamic equilibrium), the vapor molecules in contact with the surface of the emitter yield calorific energy, condense, decrease their volume and therefore creates a depression that is compensated with the arrival of more steam from the receiver (dramatically), therefore in the emitter heat energy is delivered based on its enthalpy of condensation, specific heat vapor phase and specific heat in liquid phase.
When liquefied, there is a supply of steam from the receiver, a large difference in vapor-liquid densities, and a difference in height between the two, the design of the circuit together with the action of gravity (or another device that replaces it), the fluid returns to the receiver where the cycle is repeated until it reaches the state of thermodynamic equilibrium PT or the temperature of the receiver is reached T <P equilibrium.
- Operation 3, the heat receiver is at a lower temperature than the heat emitter:
In this case, considering that the thermodynamic imbalance T> P is met in the emitter, the inverse phenomenon does not occur because there are no liquid molecules in the liquid state that vaporize and perform the cycle, there is a difference in densities in the phase emitter-receiver steam, but the circulation based on that difference is blocked by the same density of the liquid in its return pipe that does not allow steam to flow to the receiver, so the inverse thermal exchange from emitter to receiver is zero.

Thanks to the characteristics described, a thermal transmission system is achieved that
widely innovates the current technique, possessing an extended industrial applicability
with the following characteristics that among others includes:
- It is exempt in its basic form from permanent rotary moving parts and / or circulation pumps, therefore, it has greater reliability and efficiency than liquid phase systems with such elements.
- Very low maintenance, without loss or reposition of fluid, less accessories to maintain.
- Adaptability to certain facilities that were previously designed to work with thermal transmission systems in a liquid state.
- High rates of thermal transfer due to the low kinematic viscosity of heat transfer vapor, low thermal gradients between emitter-receiver even over long distances> 25m.
- Wide ranges of temperature and operating pressure as well as applicability for infinity of pure heat transfer fluids and mixtures (Water, methanol, butane, hexane, ethylene glycol ...) It does not require additional expansion devices, because the contained vapor is a compressible fluid before the liquid expansion.
- Hermetic.
- Operating capacity at pressures both higher and lower than atmospheric.
- The diameters of the necessary transfer pipes are smaller in size, comparing the same thermal transport capacity of the traditional liquid phase systems due to the low kinematic viscosity of the heat transfer vapor of this system.
- They have superior efficiency and effectiveness in thermal transmission per kg of transmitted fluid compared to forced circulated systems as well as thermal convection (thermosiphon)
- Irreversibility of thermal transport between heat emitter to receiver without accessories.
- Applicability for both emitters and multiple heat receivers installed in parallel and series.
- Greater homogeneity in the thermal distribution in different thermal emitters affected by large differences in heights-distances to the heat sink.
