Characterization of a Horizontal Vaporization Boiler using energy of a pair of friction steel-bronze

Abstract

The study and development of alternative technologies that allow the use of non-conventional energy has led, in the field of mechanical and energy, research into new boilers that are adaptable to the primary energy source in order to better exploit the same avoiding intermediate transformations of energy that could reduce efficiency. This study focuses on the Horizontal Vaporization Boiler, which harnesses the energy of friction during rotation, it can be applied as a use in wind turbine or high inertia motors braking systems. There have been several controlled experiments to obtain data to perform basic statistical study on the operation of the built prototype. Similarly, the mathematical model is presented for stablish the numerical results based in experiments with the prototype and complementarily, the equation describing the operation of the boiler.
