CA 2176141

It is disclosed a device for conversion of kinetic energy from an external source, e.g. wind or flowing water, into thermal energy, by means of internal friction in a liquid. The device comprises a pump (2) connected to a shaft (10) receiving kinetic energy front said external source. The pump (2) is provided for pumping the liquid in a circuit (4) comprising a unit (3) for converting the kinetic energy in the liquid into heat. The unit (3) is a throttle valve (3) which decelerates the liquid in the circuit (3) so that heat is generated. The circuit comprises two concentric tubes (32, 33), where a first tube (33) is located within a second tube (32), and heated liquid downstream of the throttle valve (3) is conducted in the inner tube (33), and return liquid upstream of the throttle valve is conducted in the outer tube (32).

Dispositif de transformation en énergie thermique, par frottement interne dans un liquide, de l'énergie cinétique issue d'une source externe telle que le vent ou de l'eau en écoulement. Le dipositif comporte une pompe (2) reliée à un arbre (10) recevant l'énergie cinétique de ladite source externe. La pompe (2) assure le pompage du liquide dans un circuit (4) comportant une unité (3) de transformation de chaleur de l'énergie cinétique du liquide. L'unité (3) possède un étranglement (3) servant à ralentir le liquide dans le circuit (3) pour engendrer de la chaleur. Le circuit comporte deux tubes concentriques (32, 33) dont un premier tube (33) se situe à l'intérieur d'un second tube (32), et le liquide chauffé se trouvant en aval de l'étranglement (3) s'écoule dans le tube intérieur (33) tandis que le liquide en retour se trouvant en amont de l'étranglement s'écoule dans le tube extérieur (32).
