The paper deals with a non-conventional energetic unit equipped with a cooling combustion engine designed as an element for qualitatively new equipment to achieve a more efficient utilization of energy chemically bound in fuel of the combustion engine by transformation of heat into cold via thermocompression. A simple example illustrates the advantage of a non-conventional energetic system from the point of view of a more efficient utilization of primary energy, i. e. the energy chemically bound in fuel.
A new possibility of utilization of ICE cooling medium thermal capacity is its connection with the independent sorption cooling equipment by thermal pipe. Such a configuration avoids the use of a utilizable thermal gradient. This disadvantage of connection of the classical combustion engine with sorption cooling equipment is solved by a cooling internal combustion engine. Its basis lies in the fact that the chambers of the cooling jacket are simultaneously generator of the sorption cooling equipment. The classical engine becomes the sorption cooling equipment. Such an engine can be used for combined generation of electric energy, heat and cold. Cold can be used for the cooling of an engine charging air and for air conditioning of ships equipped with such an engine and cooling of food.
