Title: Methods and systems to harvest energy from the earth
Inventor: SMITH DAVID RANDOLPH
IPC: F02C1/05
Filed: 2012-03-16
Abstract: The present disclosure provides an engine assembly that is installed below the surface of the earth to harvest the thermal energy of the earth, using a working fluid in a closed loop system, and convert it into electricity, which can be commercialized at the surface. The subterranean engine comprises a hot region and a cold region, and a working fluid that moves between the two regions. The movement and efficiency of the working fluid operates the pistons that drive a generator coupled to the pistons, thereby generating electricity.
