Device for the production of cold and/or heat by solid-gas reaction
First Claim
1. Device for producing cold and/or heat by chemical reaction comprising at least four reactors, each containing a salt capable of reacting chemically with a gas, a vessel intended to receive the gas from the reactors and a vessel intended to deliver the gas to the reactors, the device being arranged so that, during the chemical reaction, two reactors are at the same higher pressure level and two reactors are at the same lower pressure level, the device additionally comprising a heat transfer fluid circuit intended to transfer heat between the reactors which are at the same pressure level, wherein the heat transfer fluid circuit is closed and connects the four reactors, this circuit additionally comprising a cooler and a heating device for a fluid in the heat transfer fluid circuit.

Abstract
A cooling and heating device using a chemical reaction comprising at least four reactors, each containing a salt capable of chemically reacting with a gas, an enclosure for receiving gas from the reactors and an enclosure for conveying gas to the reactors. The device is arranged so that, during the chemical reaction, two reactors are at the same higher pressure level, while two reactors are at the same lower pressure level. According to the invention, the device also comprises a heat-transporting fluid circuit for transferring heat between the reactors, operating at the same presure level.
