Abstract

The vortex tube when properly used within a Rankine cycle can produce phenomenal results. This invention functionally describes the preferred vortex tube used to produce superheated vapor from a compressed heated liquid without summoning the additional heat required for latent-heat to effect vaporization. The vortex tube provides superheated vapor to a turbine for generating electricity burning 50% less fossil fuel, also releasing 50% less carbon emissions to the environment. The vortex tube extends the efficient Rankine Cycle temperature range well below 150° F. with the proper refrigerant choice. The physical size and function of the hearing equipment is reduced. The invention delivers new thermal efficiencies for both the Rankine Cycle and the Organic Rankine Cycle.
