ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for the generation of power and for the generation of higher temperature heat, by using a work process with isentropic compression of a gaseous working fluid, and the expansion of the working fluid with heat addition and expansion adiabatically. Work is supplied to the working fluid during compression and work is extracted during expansion from the working fluid; the difference is the work output for the system. Heat is added into the working fluid during the expansion, and such heat addition may be in steps with compression between such steps. Heat is removed from the working fluid at a higher pressure than the heat addition, with the heat removal at constant pressure normally. Working fluids include air, nitrogen and oxygen.
