METHOD OF COOLING PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY

Abstract

This is directed to systems, processes, machines, and other means that produce a reduced solution for cooling machinery. The invention can produce a superior coolant, or has a superior ability to reduce or transfer heat through the use of highly reduced water with a high potential of hydrogen and increased production of electrons in a rapid state of disassociation, which produces a highly active (energy) solution with an increased ability to transfer heat. This superior coolant is a cathodic non-corrosive medium, which possesses an increased ability to transfer heat.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/471,882 filed on Apr. 5, 2011.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] This invention relates to cooling systems which utilize a dynamic fluid.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Originally, pure water was used as a dynamic cooling fluid however, water was constrained in it's usefulness by its high boiling point and low freezing point along with a large entropy requirement to cool machinery. Ammonia alleviates some of these concerns, boiling at slightly more than room temperature, and freezing at a much lower temperature. Other kinds of refrigerants have been used, but these refrigerants were limited by high entropy requirements or environmental concerns. The present invention solves this problem.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0004] The present invention includes methods, systems, and other means for a process for creating an electrolytic solution for cooling machinery which comprising an electrolyte combined with water to form an electrolytic mixture. The electrolytic mixture is placed in a container, which contains an anode and a cathode. The anode is electrical coupled to a positive terminal and the cathode is electrically coupled to a negative terminal; where the anode is separated from the cathode by a membrane; [0005] where a reaction occurs when the electrolyte solution reacts with the anode creating an oxidized solution and the electrolyte solution reacts with the cathode creating a reduced solution; [0006] where the reduced solution is then removed from the container and used as the electrolytic solution for cooling machinery.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWINGS

[0007] Having thus described the invention in general terms, reference will now be made to the accompanying drawings, which are not necessarily drawn to scale, and wherein:

[0008] FIG. 1 shows a schematic view of the device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Embodiments of the present invention overcome many of the obstacles associated with refrigerants in individual, commercial or industrial applications, and now will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings that show some, but not all embodiments of the claimed inventions. Indeed, the invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements. Like numbers refer to like elements throughout.

[0010] FIG. 1 shows a schematic of the invention. Electrolyte 10 is added to water 12 to form electrolytic mixture 14. Electrolyte 10 can be any of a large number of known electrolytes; however sodium chloride and calcium chloride are particularly effective. Electrolytic mixture 14 is exposed to a power source comprising positive terminal 16 and negative terminal 18 in container 30. Positive terminal 16 is electrically coupled to anode 20. Negative terminal 18 is electrically coupled to cathode 24. Anode 20 is separated from cathode 24 by membrane 22. After being exposed to anode 20, electrolytic mixture 14 becomes electrified into oxidized solution 26. Similarly, after being exposed to cathode 24, electrolytic mixture 14 becomes electrified into reduced solution 28. For most applications, reduced solution 28 is the better dynamic fluid for residential, commercial and industrial machinery.

[0011] The reaction should continue until reduced solution 28 has an oxidation reduction potential (ORP) of -250 to -700 mV in reference to the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE). Reduced solution 28 should have a pH of 9-14 at that time. Reduce solution 28 is a highly reduced aqueous solution a product is created with unique characteristics that allow a vehicle's cooling system to function more efficiently. With an increased level of (-) electrons and rapid state of disassociation producing an increased transfer of heat with enhanced performance compared with other solutions in the prior art. In some embodiments, the process includes the addition of ionic copper or zinc to be added for additional lubrication.
