。With the above configuration, a low boiling point fluid is introduced into the loop of the condenser/secondary evaporator 5. When the water intake pump λ is operated and the surface seawater of the ocean L is introduced into the evaporator 5 through the water intake pipe 3 and the water conduit pipe, the low boiling point fluid is vaporized in the evaporator S. This steam is fed to the turbine 7 by opening the large mouth valve g, and electric power can be obtained from the generator 6 by driving the turbine 7. The exhaust steam after Turbits operation is sent to the condenser 7.
2, on the other hand, the water intake pump t is operated to pump deep seawater, which has a lower temperature than the surface seawater, to the water intake pipe /θ,? The turbine exhaust steam is condensed and liquefied by being introduced into the condenser/2 through the rtI water pipe/l. This condensed low-boiling fluid is returned to the evaporator 5 by the working fluid pump/3.
