Tapered-ring vortex chamber for extreme acceleration of the vortex medium

摘要

The side walls of the tapered-ring vortex chamber extend inwards in a funnel shape, so that they form a tapered ring with the circular outer wall. The vortex material injected through the outer wall at an angle to form a vortex can flow out in the vicinity of the vortex core, because the funnel walls are open at that point. Conventionally, the vortex chamber narrows towards the vortex centre with the square of the approach. Due to the tapered-ring shape, the chamber space tapers inwards also in the width of flow, so that the inward narrowing of the space goes with the cube. As a result, the vortex medium in the tapered-ring vortex chamber is subjected to an extremely high acceleration. Industrial utilisation in: 1. centrifugal separation equipment, 2. pre-acceleration of the propellant medium for liquid turbines and pre- and re-acceleration for gas turbines, 3. pulsed combustion chambers with vortex acceleration, 4. pulsed combustion turbines, 5. ultrahigh-speed small turbines and 6. extreme high-speed water turbines with a blade drive for cutting by vortex water. The drawing shows the tapered-ring vortex chamber with an air cushion antechamber for liquids, to reduce the inflow resistance. Tapered-ring vortex chamber with air cushion antechamber for high-speed liquid turbines: 1. Vortex liquid in the tapered-ring vortex chamber and in the air cushion antechamber with the centrifugal force rising outwards. 2. Injection orifice into the air cushion antechamber. 3. Air cushion antechamber. 4. Air cushion buffer space. 5. Compressed-air feed, if necessary. 6. Overflow ring orifice. 7. Vortex outflow orifice. 8. Turbine shaft. 9. Open outflow chamber. IMAGE
