The principles of thermodynamic heating.

Author(s) : LORENTZEN G.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

The world will face a very serious situation with regard to energy supply towards the end of this century and at the beginning of the next, as the oil supply gradually runs out. The large new energy sources such as fusion or solar energy, will not be operative on a sufficient scale until well into the next century. In the meantime, economic use of energy will be crucially important. The possible application of thermodynamic heating methods in the form of cogeneration and heat pumps is most important. The paper discusses the economics of such systems under different conditions as they exist in both water-power and heat-power countries.
