Abstract
A method of transferring heat from a hot fluid to a cold fluid by means of a heat carrying fluid formed from at least two non azeotropic constituents contained in a looped circuit. The hot fluid gives up its heat in an exchanger, this heat being used for evaporating the heat carrying fluid which is then condensed in an exchanger while giving up its condensation heat to the cold fluid. A heat carrying agent reservoir accomodates the heat flux variations and a system imposes a flow direction on the heat carrying fluid.
