A method and apparatus for converting heat energy to mechanical energy with greater efficiency. According to the method. heat energy is applied to a working fluid in a reservoir (12) sufficient to convert the working fluid to a vapor and the working fluid is passed in vapor form to means (16) such as a generator for converting the energy therein to mechanical work. The working fluid is then recycled to the reservoir (12). In order to increase the efficiency of this process, a gas (He) having a molecular weight no greater then the approximate molecular weight of the working fluid is added to the working fluid in the reservoir (12) and separated from the working fluid downstream from the reservoir.

Méthode et appareil pour convertir l'énergie thermique en énergie mécanique avec une plus grande efficacité. Selon la méthode, l'énergie thermique est appliquée à un fluide caloporteur dans un réservoir (12) en quantité suffisante pour convertir le fluide caloporteur en vapeur, et le fluide caloporteur est acheminé sous forme de vapeur à un moyen (16), tel un générateur, pour transformer l'énergie thermique en énergie mécanique. Le fluide caloporteur est ensuite réacheminé au réservoir (12). Dans le but d'améliorer l'efficacité du processus, un gaz (He) de poids moléculaire n'excédant pas le poids moléculaire approximatif du fluide caloporteur est ajouté au fluide caloporteur dans le réservoir (12) et séparé du fluide caloporteur en aval du réservoir.
