Abstract: The present invention is a system and method of storing various quantities of cryogenic material with lower cost than systems found in prior art. Novel feature of the system is the ability to use minimum amounts of different types of energy to maintain various quantities of cryogenic material. An additional novel feature is the use of common components and materials.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and method of power medium expansion that functions with a rate of efficiency higher than systems found in prior art. Novel features of the system increase the overall efficiency with the use of a power medium that begins the cycle in the liquid state and enters the gaseous state. An additional novel feature is the use of additional heat that may also increase the overall cycle efficiency. Another additional novel feature is recuperating energy that can supplement the phase change of the power medium along with isolating the components from the ambient.

Abstract: A system and method of energy conversion using a mixture of a compressible gas and an incompressible liquid. Systems found in prior art do not convert all of the potential energy. Novel features of the system increase the conversion of the potential energy with a nozzle and turbine in the area where a mixture of incompressible liquid and compressed gas are separated. A turbine is at the exit of the nozzle, where the mixture contacts that turbine. A compressed gas displaces an incompressible liquid below the exit of the nozzle and location of the turbine. Another turbine can be prior to the nozzle to further increase conversion. A novel feature of the method combines waste heat with a compressed gas to increase potential output during expansion which includes driving a liquid pump that moves the incompressible liquid. External energy in waste heat or electricity is captured, converted, or stored.
