Abstract
A sliding-blade refrigeration apparatus and method which utilizes ambient air mixed with water as the refrigerant medium. A mixture of fine droplets of cool water in ambient air is isothermally compressed in a sliding-blade air-water compressor. Compressed air is separated from the water and adiabatically expanded in a sliding-blade air-motor to perform useful work and produce refrigerated air. Separated water is evaporated in a boiler and during the vapor cycle performs useful work in a sliding-blade steam motor. The spent steam is condensed in a condenser and cool water from the condenser is injected back into the air-water compressor completing the cycle. The rotors of the air-motor and steam motor are connected with the rotor of the air-water compressor and cause simultaneous rotation of the air-water compressor rotor as they rotate. In another embodiment, the rotor of the air-water compressor is rotated by an external power source connected to the shaft of the rotor rather than by the working steam.
