There is provided an improved energy converting system for converting low temperature heat energy into mechanical energy. The energy converting system includes an absorption system including a carrier fluid and a working medium absorbable by the carrier fluid. Evaporator means receives the low thermal energy and converts the working medium from a liquid to a gas. The gaseous working medium is then absorbed by the carrier fluid, and the concentrated mixture of working medium and carrier fluid goes into a separator wherein the medium and fluid are separated by compression. A condenser means is provided for removing heat from the gaseous working medium and thereby converting the gaseous working medium into a liquid. Energy converting means are provided associated with one of the above means for converting the energy in the system into other forms of energy, such as into mechanical energy.
An energy converting system for converting energy from a relatively low thermal source into useful energy comprising:
