  • Publication number: 20110083462
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for obtaining heat, comprising a first brine circuit (2) in which at least a first brine pump (3) and at least one heat pump unit (40) with an outside register (5) for utilizing heat of the ambient air are arranged, and at least a second brine circuit (7) in which at least a second brine pump (9) and at least a solar collector (8) are arranged, with the second brine circuit (7) being thermally connected with a heat storage reservoir (11). In order to cover the largest possible number of operating states and to ensure high thermal efficiency, it is provided that the first and second brine circuit (2, 7) can be flow-connected with each other via a first valve (24), preferably a mixing valve.

  • Publication number: 20070209780
    Abstract: A combined fluid-air evaporator having at least two separate duct systems is described, through which separate material flows may be conducted, at least one of the two duct systems having a free surface which may be brought into thermal contact with an air flow, and the at least two duct systems being at least partially in thermal contact with one another. Furthermore, a ventilation arrangement for a building is described using the combined fluid-air evaporator, in which a used air flow directed out of the building, which is in thermal contact with an outside air flow via an air-air heat exchanger, comes into thermal contact with the combined fluid-air evaporator, through which a refrigerant and an exothermic fluid pass, the refrigerant circulating in the loop of a heat pump, whose condenser is connected downstream in the flow direction from the air-air heat exchanger in the heated outside air flow, and the exothermic fluid circulates in the loop of a heat accumulator system.
