Alternate condensation process.

I found this patent roughly twenty years ago, meaning it is now safely in the public domain. I just thought I would toss it out as something interesting to contemplate. Any patent with an assignee of Babcock-Hitachi is bound to have some kind of thought involved, even if it may not be practical for implementation in light steam ... or is it?

This power cycle is combination of Rankine cycle and a absorption refrigeration chiller/cooler.

Yup,

Related to the lithium-bromide refrigerant systems I learned about in the Navy. Always seemed a bit weird to have a refrigerant system with no compressor and the cooling input energy was live steam.
