ABSTRACT:
A heat engine that rotates on a shaft set at an angle to the lines of force of a gravitational or centrifugal field. Elongated chambers (divers) are arranged radially and about the shaft with their long axes parallel to the shaft. There are an equal number of hot and cold divers. Each cold diver connects through its base, so a liquid may flow between, with other cold divers located about the shaft. Each hot diver connects through its base, so liquid may flow between, with other hot divers located about the shaft. Each cold diver is connected from its top, so that gas may pass between, through a suitable regenerator to the top of one warm diver. The so-connected pairs of divers are arranged so that the warm diver is always ahead of the cold diver some phase angle 19 radially about the shaft. The divers are filled approximately 1/2 full of liquid and 1/2 full of a gas. As the shaft turns the phase angle causes the gas to flow from warm to cold to warm diver. The expansion of the gas in the hot diver pushes the majority of liquid to the other side of the shaft. The gravitational or centrifugal field causes a turning motion. Heat may also be pumped from a cold source to a hot source by turning the engine backwards.
