Re: compressor for wind powered heat pump
[quote= the motor being driven off the turbine will not work kinetic, induction and magnetic losses /////////////// wind turbine powered compressor has even more energy loss. quote]
Captnfixit ,
Yes I know we worry about losses but what if the
energy source is free (ignoring equipment costs)
You're younger than me but I'd swear I can hear when
a refrigeration man's brain gears are starting to turn
We deal daily with converting high priced electricity
to mechanical power then change that to gas/liquid
changes of state to move heat and then educate
ourselves to design the most effecient system
and fans to deliver de-superheated air to the heat source
If you reverse - engineer that process (without the ***** stage) you have a wind generator
Refrig people already know how the cycle works
We humans spend thousands on equipment to heat
and cool our homes and businesses then pay the rest
of our lives for the energy to run it (ignoring equipment costs)
