Ocean water pressure energy generation system

Abstract

A rigid cylinder structure is vertically positioned at sea bottom,so that the top of the cylinder's surface is at a depth of 300 meters below sea surface. This surface constitutes the upper face of a piston which moves within the cylinder,when it is exposed periodically by way of a shiftable opening & closing valve,which is located at the top of the cylinder,it intervenes,then exposes the piston at regular intervals to sea water pressure of 30 atm. Being basically a Pascal Hydrolic system,this pressure is transmitted through a pipe to a larger area piston,but in addition to the Pascal system, the multiplied pressure is in turn is used to pressurize a gas above it & compresses it to {fraction (1/9)} of it's initial volume. The result of compression is a 14 fold temperature increase-adiabatic. The high pressure & high temnperature as is then contained in a closed cycle second upper volume,which has just the exact dimensions for the gas which is compressed to {fraction (1/9)} of its initial volume. Here,the temperature & pressure is maintained constant as a result of a special valve & repeated compressions which supply additional pressure,which at each compression peak,lets pressure input in,but does not let a pressure loss when large piston makes its downward,hence decompression motion. Also within this volume is the spiraling pipe which attains thermal equilibrium within this space which contains the working gas. And the working gas,which has no condensation throughout the repeated cycles turns the turbines. Having no condensation & on the contrary being very strongly insulated,system eliminates the loss of internal energy. The minor loss of internal energy is more than compensated with each compression. Compressing a gas repeatedly every 40 minutes,to a fraction of it's initial volume & thereby to increase the temperature of the gas without any burning process & hence without any exhaust-greenhouse gas emission problems & without the need for very complicated & expensive equipment, system utilizes a natural and abundantly available,non-variable Renewable source;the Sea Water Pressure as the input force to the system. Which is converted repeatedly to a multiplied mechanic force to obtain pressure. These main features are what the system-invention presents as what is new in the art.
