Patent number: 11473817Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for changing the temperature of an environment using a thermally driven system. At least one solute and a solvent are selected such that the mixture of each solute and the solvent produce a negative enthalpy change for heating and a positive enthalpy change for cooling. In some embodiments, a plurality of pumps move the solute and the solvent, and a mixture thereof, among the various components of the present invention. A liquid loop may be coupled with a mixing heat exchanger and an air handler to provide a warm or cool supply air. Further, a process for cooling or heating air using enthalpy change of a solution associated with the dissolution of a solute in a solvent at relatively constant atmospheric pressure, and separation of the solute from the solvent for re-use in the process is disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2019Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Applied Research Associates, Inc.Inventors: Gong Zhou, Aly H.

Patent number: 10752821Abstract: A dry-cooling system useful in absorbing heat from a heat source and related dry cooling methods including a depolymerization cooling unit (DCU) in fluid communication with a polymerization heating unit (PHU). The DCU includes a DCU heat exchanger which receives a polymer and a catalyst, wherein contact of the polymer and the catalyst within the DCU heat exchanger causes an endothermic reaction, converting the polymer to a monomer and drawing heat from a first heat source. The monomer is then withdrawn from the DCU. The PHU includes a PHU heat exchanger, which receives the monomer, wherein contact of the monomer with the catalyst causes an exothermic reaction within the PHU heat exchanger, converting the monomer to the polymer. The polymer is then withdrawn from the PHU for conveyance back to the DCU, and the cycle is repeated.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2019Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Inventors: Aly H. Shaaban, Gong Zhou, Joshua J Mormile
