Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving refrigeration and air conditioning efficiency for use with a heat exchange system having a compressor, condenser, evaporator, expansion device, and circulating refrigerant. The apparatus includes is a liquid refrigerant containing vessel having a refrigerant entrance and a refrigerant exit with the vessel positioned in the heat exchange system between the condenser and the evaporator, and means for creating a turbulent flow of liquefied refrigerant. The apparatus further preferably includes a refrigerant bypass path to sub-cool a portion of the refrigerant within the vessel; a disk positioned at the liquid refrigerant entrance to develop a low pressure area on the back side and create a turbulent flow of refrigerant entering the vessel; and a refrigerant valve incorporated into the refrigerant path downstream of the expansion valve and before the coil which develops a vortex that continues through the refrigerant coil.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system for providing energy to a house or group of houses comprising an energy source coupled to a motor, generator, storage battery, and control/monitoring unit, are described. A plurality of different energy sources can be used in conjunction with a power control and generation system that comprises an input interface coupled to a high-efficiency generator and an output interface to either an energy storage unit or output to a power grid. The different energy sources can include solar, wind or water power, compressed gas or internal combustion engine power, or electrical power. For non-kinetic energy sources, a motor may be included as part of the power control and generation system. The input interface of the power control and generation system includes a power conditioning module for optimizing the operating range of the motor. The high efficiency generator outputs AC electricity at a relatively high frequency.
