Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 105 words
In a heating method wherein a gaseous solute is dissolved in a solvent to release heat of solution in the vicinity of an area to be heated, the resulting solution is heated to release gaseous solute from the solvent, the released solute is condensed to form liquid solute and to release heat of condensation in the vicinity of the area to be heated and evaporating the resulting liquid solute at a location removed from the area to be heated, the improvement comprising using a fluorocarbon selected from the group consisting of dichloromonofluoromethane, monochlorodifluoromethane, trifluoromethane and monochloromonofluoromethane as the solute and 2-(t-butoxymethyl) tetrahydrofuran as the solvent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 105 words
In a heating method wherein a gaseous solute is dissolved in a solvent to release heat of solution in the vicinity of an area to be heated, the resulting solution is heated to release gaseous solute from the solvent, the released solute is condensed to form liquid solute and to release heat of condensation in the vicinity of the area to be heated and evaporating the resulting liquid solute at a location removed from the area to be heated, the improvement comprising using a fluorocarbon selected from the group consisting of dichloromonofluoromethane, monochlorodifluoromethane, trifluoromethane and monochloromonofluoromethane as the solute and 2-(t-butoxymethyl) tetrahydrofuran as the solvent.
