TRIAL SERIES 1

Measurement of the oxygen content of the water The experiments described were carried out on 07. and 08. 01. 2007 in the inventor's private laboratory in Eußerthal, Breitbachstraße 1 carried out.

The Determination of the dissolved oxygen content in the water samples took place by means of the commercial measuring device "GMH 3630" from Matzner Messtechnik, Munich. According to company information the measuring accuracy is +/- 1.5% +/- 0.2 mg / L. The probe was cleaned properly and the device is calibrated according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Two parameters were measured: the oxygen content [O ₂ ] of different water samples and the time course of the same in milligrams per liter [mg / L]. For this purpose, measurements were carried out immediately after the filling of the water samples in the jars, and after one hour and then after 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 hours.

The various water samples were placed in identical, cylindrical 5-liter glass jars bottled, not moved, as well as equal tempered and in a darkened room at a constant temperature of 22 ° C allowed to stand.

to Carrying out the measurement, the probe was placed on each same way very slowly - to a water movement as possible to avoid - on exactly 10 centimeters Water depth lowered and then removed just as slowly. Because of the relatively large water volume of 5 liters are Influencing the measurement results by small movements of the Exclude water.

• Probe 1: unbehandeltes Leitungswasser
• Probe 2: Leitungswasser behandelt mit VV5 mit Trichterglas
• Probe 3: Leitungswasser behandelt mit VV5 freisprühend
• Probe 4: Leitungswasser behandelt mit VV7.3 mit Nachwirbelkammer (entspricht Wirbelkammermodul 50 mit Ausflussmodul 100 von 1)
• Probe 5: Leitungswasser behandelt mit VV7.3 freisprühend (entspricht Wirbelkammermodul 50 von 1)
• Probe 6: Leitungswasser behandelt mit VV5x7-Wirbelstufe (= 1xVV5 + 6xVV5-Stufe)
• Probe 7: Leitungswasser behandelt mit VV7.1–VV7.7 (= 7 Wirbler: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6 und 7.7).

The following water samples were measured (the devices were connected to a normal domestic water supply):

• Sample 1: untreated tap water
• Sample 2: Tap water treated with VV5 with funnel glass
• Sample 3: Tap water treated with VV5 free-spraying
• Sample 4: Tap water treated with VV7.3 with post-vortex chamber (corresponds to vortex chamber module 50 with discharge module 100 from 1 )
• Sample 5: Tap water treated with VV7.3 free-spraying (corresponds to vortex chamber module 50 from 1 )
• Sample 6: tap water treated with VV5x7 vortex stage (= 1xVV5 + 6xVV5 stage)
• Sample 7: Tap water treated with VV7.1-VV7.7 (= 7 swirler: 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6 and 7.7).

VV5 corresponds to the prior art with 2 cylindrical tangential Inlets (vortex chamber feeds) into a cylindrical Vortex chamber, cylindrical outlet hole (vortex chamber outlet) and Funnel glass top - all made in metric masses.

VV7.3 is the new generation vortex chamber module, which most closely resembles the old model VV5 in terms of vortex chamber dimensions, allowing a reasonably direct comparison of performance. VV7.3 corresponds to the third vortex chamber module 50 from 1 which is screwed to a water pipe.

VV5x7 is a series of 7 Wirblern each with the same cylindrical VV5 vortex chamber.

VV7 is a new generation swirl cascade in which the individual Whirl chambers are dimensioned so that they respect their flow conditions (flow pressure, Flow rate, etc.) in an ideal, logarithmic ratio to stand by each other.

Under 'free-spraying' (samples 3 and 5) is understood to mean: From the vortex chamber, the water flowed into a cylindrical Glass vessel of about 20 cm diameter and about 40 cm height, the whirler was in the middle above it arranged. This was a free spraying of the water within about 9 cm around the exit hole of the respective swirler, and at least 8 cm below it.

The geometric shape of the water flowing from the vortex chamber varies with the various vortexers, so that the water meets the walls of the glass container at different heights and at different angles. In the VV5 turbos, the water forms a spray cone with an angle of almost 90 degrees, with the new models of the series VV7 lie no exact geometric shape of the flow give. There are several spray cone into each other or the droplets fill the space below the vortex chamber of different density conical. It is not possible to determine exactly what difference the spraying behavior has in detail with regard to the quality of the water.

The following Values of the oxygen content (in mg / L) were determined (measurement time in hours after bottling):

• 2: 13.09
• 3: 15,17
• 4: 21.01
• 5: 18,47
• 6: 19.68

• 7: 18,84

Oxygen content after 32 hours:

• 1: 3.76
• 2: 8,67
• 3: 8.99
• 4: 11,29
• 5: 10,64
• 6: 10,81
• 7: 14,86

The Measurement results can be briefly summarized as follows: The already significant increase in the oxygen content of the old Model VV5 is further illustrated by the new generation of turb generators increased. With starting values of over 18% to 21% compared 13% and 15% provides the new invention Cyclone generation a much higher oxygenation of the water.

Surprised is also the relatively slow drop in oxygen content with the Time to evaluate. After more than a day, the value is still always about half above that under normal conditions maximum value of around 8 mg / L. Oxygen is therefore particularly good with the device according to the invention and constantly dissolved in water.

One There is a clear difference between the values for the respective vortex chamber alone (free spraying) opposite the water filled with funnel glass or Nachwirbelkammer (Discharge module). The funnel of the old model VV5 is capable of Oxygen content compared to the free-spraying Do not increase the vortex chamber - on the contrary: the values are about one-seventh lower at the start of the experiment and drop accordingly lower. Not so with the new model VV7.3: it achieves another by the Nachwirbelprozeß almost 14% higher oxygen saturation compared to the spray-free operation.

If one interprets the values for the free-spraying water as a kind of basic oxygen entry through the main vortex process, one can regard the increase of the oxygen content by the new Nachwirbelkammer as particularly high. According to the research of the past, this is due to the separation of the air and water way on the one hand, as well as the optimal air supply centrally from below to the vortex chamber on the other hand. Further increases are in the execution according to the 4 and 5 expected.

Surprised is that the oxygen content in the 7-er circuits again significantly increased. Because of fluid mechanics Reasons only the seventh chamber sucks air and - at least with the whirlwinds VV5x7 the pressure drops from level to level - probably the oxygen content does not change appreciably.

It It is believed that the water in the first six vortex chambers is changed so that the solubility increases, so that subsequently in the seventh chamber the sucked in atmospheric oxygen is dissolved even more effectively in the water can be.

On In any case, a significant increase in the oxygen input through the 7-stage circuit with the new generation VV7 with 27% compared to nearly 20% for the predecessors of the VV5 series recognizable.

It It is assumed that this observed increase also the harmonic tuning of the 7 vortex chambers is due. By the logarithmically decreasing chamber dimensions can be found in the new VV7 series every vortex chamber in fluid mechanics working optimum range and will not work from the previous ones Whirl chambers "slowed down".

Furthermore is believed to be narrower by the funnel-shaped Injection channels (vortex chamber inlets) into the vortex chamber now a backwater of the water effectively prevented becomes.

One Another factor is the optimal design of the collection areas in the whirlwinds before the water enters the actual Be a whirl chamber. This happens the transition from one Vortex chamber in the next very gentle. An unfavorable Motion control (chaotic-turbulent) is largely avoided.

There the positive effects of water with a high oxygen content - before especially on the intestinal flora - recognized by conventional medicine be documented, the values measured here a significant Improving the quality of drinking water through the VV7 devices. Since oxygen is known only in "alive" = moving Water is found in significant quantities, the high content of dissolved oxygen as clear evidence of estimated an increase in drinking water quality become.

TEST SERIES 2

Measurement of the flowability and solubility of the water The experiments described were conducted from 07. to 12. 01. 2007 in the inventor's private laboratory in Eußerthal, Breitbachstraße 1 carried out.

Since there is currently no defined method for the exact determination of the solubility and flowability of the water, the following chromatographic-like attempt was made:
Various water samples were mixed with the defined amount of a previously prepared plant suspension and stirred briefly. Immediately thereafter, an equal width strip of blotter paper was dipped in the various blends. The mixture then rose at different rates in the capillaries of the blotter paper and deposited the entrained ingredients of the plant suspension at different levels above the water surface. Measured 4 times after every 30 minutes running time. The differently colored paper strips were then visually evaluated and quantified.

First a suspension of plant ingredients was prepared by several green leaves and colorful flower leaves various plants - about 50 grams - in a mortar finely triturated and with 50 ml of an equal mixture of ordinary dishwashing detergent, household spirit (with an ethanol content of 94%), acetone-based nail polish remover and commercial brush cleaner (turpentine substitute) mixed were.

These Mixture became intense again for 5 minutes in a sealed glass jar shaken and then through an ordinary tea strainer poured from wire mesh. The suspension now obtained therefore contained all of the plant leaves of the organic solvents dissolved out substances and particles up to a size of about 0.5 millimeters.

It It was assumed that in the suspension due to the used nonpolar and emulsifying organic solvents a whole series of substances was dissolved, which in ordinary Water would not go or at best would go bad. Many biological macromolecules are only colloidally soluble.

Around to prevent different settling of parts of the ingredients the pipette was constantly moved with the solution and the time from the preparation of the mixtures (inputting the plant suspension into the water samples) until the start of the experiment (immersion of the blotter paper strips into the mixtures) within less than 10 seconds.

Around Inequalities in paper structure were excluded the strips used in the comparative experiments each cut from the same sheet of paper.

The various water samples of 100 milliliters (ml) were taken with each exactly 1 ml of the above-mentioned plants suspension mixed. All mixtures thus prepared were uniform in identical glass vessels tempered directly next to each other.

Around Differences in flow behavior due to temperature differences was ruled out about 1 minute after the beginning of the Running test in all 5 sample tubes measured the temperature. Deviations of a maximum of 0.1 degrees Celsius were detected, which lies within the scope of the measuring accuracy.

Of the entire experiment became identical 5 times on 5 consecutive days repeated, the suspension of plant parts each new was manufactured and naturally certain fluctuations subject. This led to the resulting Color samples varied slightly in each trial. However, the results analogous, only one experiment is shown here by way of example.

As not otherwise expected in a chromatography experiment some of the ingredients of the sample mixtures are reasonably closed gangs on the way up. Although no chemical Analyzes were created, may well be assumed that namely the green band on the chlorophyll or the Chloroblasts, the yellow-red stripes on the xanthophylls, the dark streaks due to the deposition of anthocyanins is. It should be noted, however, that the chemical identity of the individual fabrics thanks to the characteristic color of the bands, and their analogous arrangement on all paper strips not from Meaning is.

On All papers showed clearly the same characteristic Color stripes and thus represented good measurement parameters. The different colored bands stood with respect to yours Track always in the same proportion to each other, so that for the test evaluation only one band was measured at a time.

For this the yellowish-red strip of xanthophylls was used because the green stripe was usually a bit uneven Length - which may vary attributed well decomposed chloroblasts or free chlorophyll is - and therefore made the reduction to an average value difficult. The dark stripes of the other plant ingredients varied something stronger in the different trials and became therefore also rejected as too uncertain.

The Determination of the values after 30, 60 and 90 minutes was carried out by photographic Capture and subsequent evaluation of the images Measuring the characteristic band to 0.5 mm. The values for the travel of the bands at the last measurement (after 2 hours) were measured directly from the blotter paper. For this purpose, horizontal lines were on the measured with the eye, on the entire paper width average flow front or Distance drawn.

to Determination of the run height reached up to the time of measurement was independently the three subjects respective blotter or its photo submitted, with the proviso, an average value for the route to determine the yellowish color strip. The measured values thus obtained in no case differed by more than a millimeter. These Measurements were arithmetically averaged and then went as a value for the running distance in the table. The Examiners were in no case aware of what they were measuring had.

VV5 corresponds to the prior art with 2 cylindrical tangential Inlets into a cylindrical vortex chamber, cylindrical Exit hole and hopper attachment - all in metric Mass produced.

VV7.3 is the swirler of the new generation, concerning the dimensions of the vortex chamber most likely the old model VV5 corresponds, so that a reasonably direct comparison the power is possible.

VV5x7 is a series of 7 Wirblern with each same cylindrical vortex chambers and thus corresponds to the prior art.

VV7 is a swirl cascade of the new generation according to the invention in which the 7 individual We belkammern are dimensioned so that they are in terms of their flow conditions (flow pressure, flow rate, etc.) in an ideal, logarithmic relationship to each other.

The optical evaluation of the impregnated blotter strips or their photos resulted in the following (average) measured values for the yellowish-red xanthophyll strip [in millimeters], after 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes, staggered according to samples: Running distance [in mm] after running time [in minutes] graduated according to samples [1, 2, ...] corresponds to average value [in%] Walking distance after 30 minutes: 1: 38.50 2: 41,17 3: 43.00 4: 44,33 5: 50.50 100.00% 106.93% 111.69% 115.15% 131.17% Walking distance after 60 minutes: 1: 65.50 2: 69.00 3: 72.33 4: 74,66 5: 85.00 100.00% 105.34% 110.43% 113.99% 129.77% Walking distance after 90 minutes: 1: 83.33 2: 88,17 3: 91.50 4: 93.83 5: 106.67 100.00% 105.80% 109.80% 112.60% 128.00% Walking distance after 120 minutes: 1: 95,17 2: 100.50 3: 104.33 4: 106.67 5: 121,17 100.00% 105.60% 109.63% 112.08% 127.32%

First It is noticeable that the values after longer Runtime no longer in the same ratio the respective reference value. This is how the lead falls from 31% of sample 5 after half an hour to just over something more 27% off after 2 hours. That means: the increase of the flowability through the vortex process decreases with time.

reason This could be an increasingly larger will be the influence of other factors - such as Evaporation, the removal of substances from the blotting paper (Glue?). It would also be conceivable to explain something Generally occurring early decay of the vortex effect. Here would have to to investigate where the deterioration is coming from.

• 1: 100,00%
• 2: 105,92%
• 3: 110,39%
• 4: 113,46%
• 5: 129,07%

An average of 4 measurements in 2 hours was made. An average increase in the fluidity of the respective fluidizing water compared to untreated tap water results as follows:
Average walking distance, all 4 measurements [in percent]:

• 1: 100.00%
• 2: 105.92%
• 3: 110.39%
• 4: 113.46%
• 5: 129.07%

at All attempts were the speed at which the color fronts spread to the top, in the treated with vortex technology water samples significantly above the reference sample. If you take the untreated Tap water (sample 1) as a reference value of 100%, as revealed easy for the old swirly ones (sample 2 = VV5-water) Values that were at least 6% higher.

The Solubility and flowability of water The new generation of vortexes (sample 3 = VV7.3) has been increased by over 10% increase. That's compared to the previous model a further increase of over 70%.

Yet the new, harmoniously harmonized 7-stage swirling cacade stands out more clearly from the 7th stage of the old generation. It excels with absolute values of over 29% the already achieved increase from 13% again by almost 14%, an increase in performance by more as the double equals.

at the simple experimental design was not possible, reliable Information about the amount of water samples in solution taken and transported in the blotter paper strip To make substances. Striking was however - already with the old swirly VV5 series visible and even more so in the case of the new Swirly-generation VV7 striking - much more intense Coloring the strips on the blotting paper. she corresponded - not only perceived subjectively, but by a total of five other people were identified right away - in like the other flow rate measurements and tracking.

It is believed that in further experiments for the total amount of substances dissolved in water is a clear one Increase for the new swirly ones - and already one moderate increase for the old VV5 models would.

Already with the simple experimental arrangement was a significant increase the fluidity and solubility of VitaVortex VV7 water with biological molecules in colloidal solution detected.

It It should be remembered that the lying in the micrometer range Particles of the suspension extremely heavy - just the best colloidal - go into solution and become the largest Resign part in a relatively short time. For simple preliminary tests with other, well water-soluble substances such as table salt, table sugar or commercial ink, could neither increase the content of dissolved foreign substances in VV7-water untreated tap water are detected, yet significant Differences in an analog chromatography-like Attempt.

With In other words, in any case, excellent water-soluble Substances does not show any quality difference of the water samples to light. In the case described here, however, with the used - for Molecular relationships - very large and correspondingly poorly soluble substances from cellular Structures, already the VV5 water and even more the VV7 water its significantly improved flowability and solubility clearly prove. In other words, the improvement the solution behavior in water is only at the lower end to document the solubility scale, not at their upper end.

in the With regard to innumerable chemical and technical applications in the industry, where it is on the solubility the water arrives and with the VV7 whirler certainly achievable Reduction of solvents, emulsifiers, etc., presumably time to be saved in the corresponding processes, as well as the associated conservation of the environment and resources arise many fields of application for the invention Liquid atomiser.

The preferred material of the vortex chamber modules and the outflow module is copper tin bronze (CuSn8) and / or ECOBRASS (R) produced by the Company WIELAND-WERKE AG, Graf-Arco-Str. 36, D-89079 Ulm, Germany is available. ECOBRASS (R) has the advantage of being extreme pure of toxic substances, such as lead, is. Furthermore The material is very hard and short-chipping, resulting in a high Achieve manufacturing quality and manufacturing accuracy. CuSn8 has the advantage of having its resonance properties gives good results, because its inner damping the Occurrence of unwanted resonance effects with the vertebrae reduced or prevented.

According to one Embodiment of the invention, the vortex chambers and preferably the entire liquid atomizing device or the liquid flow path an orgasmic African Shaping have. Preferably, in a vortex chamber and preferably in the entire liquid atomizing device or the liquid flow path straight lines, Right angles and / or flat, parallel surfaces and cylindrical or conical interiors avoided. Preferably come almost exclusively organic curved Forms based on radii and ovals, if possible Approximate hyperbole.

By the organic shape becomes resonance effects of the solid material optimized and cavity resonances suppressed. That reduces the information of the water to a minimum.

The vortex geometry according to the invention with more than two and in particular three Wirbelkammerzuläufen or inlet nozzles allows compared to the prior art with two tangential injectors a significant increase the entire vortex dynamics - both what the flow velocity concerns, as well as with regard to the hierarchy of primary, Secondary, tertiary vertebrae etc ..

Tapered trained (for example, milled) injection channels or Wirbelkammerzuläufe increase compared to the known from the prior art cylindrical holes the amount of water per time (at the same pressure) that can flow into the vortex chamber. It can thus be achieved higher injection speeds and a lower dynamic pressure. The hyperbol form of a naturally occurring water vortex can preferably be approximated with radii.

By funnel-shaped narrowing vortex chamber inlets or injection channels in the vortex chamber according to the invention a Backflow of water before the vortex chamber effectively be prevented. As a result, the water is no longer as in the state the technology by resonance effects aufschaukelnden pressure peaks exposed, the experience shows the water quality influence negatively. This results in a harmonization of the injection process.

If several vortex chambers are arranged in series - so-called stepping - the optimal design of the catchment spaces in the vortexers in front of the vortex chamber has an effect. As a result, the transition from one vortex chamber to the next is particularly gentle. An unfavorable motion control (chaotic-turbulent) according to the invention in particular in the embodiment according to 1 largely avoided. An optimized transition between several vortex chambers can be realized.

According to the invention For example, seven different, mounted in series one behind the other Whirl chamber modules are provided, the dimensions of the vortex chambers in an ideal way - logarithmically smaller becoming - coordinated. As a result, according to the invention each Swirl chamber work in the flow-mechanically optimal range and will not - as in the prior art with several identical vortex chambers - from the previous vortex chambers "Thwarted". A consistently high flow pressure of the Water is guaranteed in all seven vortex chambers.

By the curvature of the vortex chamber wall to the outside the swirl is due to the injection of water into the tangential Inlets reinforced again. The arched ones Walls set the inflowing water lower Resistance. This already captures the main vortex outside with much higher speed at what proportional to the final speeds to be achieved. It Thus, according to the invention higher Flow rates.

The embodiment according to 1 generates a significantly higher suction power potential than the prior art. This results in a higher suction power. The conversion of pressure into suction (explosion - implosion) thus happens more effectively than in the prior art.

According to the invention in the outflow module a complete separation of the air and waterway can be achieved, because the air supply into the vortex chamber can not at the outflow module from the middle down more done through the exiting water jet, but through its own channel from the side outside. Using a supply nozzle is for example a feeder of pure oxygen via a hose possible, which leads to a significantly increased oxygen input.

The enables separation of the paths according to the invention it, instead of supplying air or oxygen, too other media - such as oils or colloidal ones Solutions - to be sucked into the vortex chamber. There is the possibility of a mixture formation (z. As suspensions, emulsions). The molar ratios lie there - depending on the viscosity of the sucked Medium between about 1 and 10%.

These particularly simple but intensive mixture formation of different media opens up completely new fields of application according to the invention the mere drinking water treatment addition - about the production of drinks by means of sucked fruit or aroma essences, the production of stable emulsions for oil baths, Lotions, for spas (with the addition of medicinal herbal oils Etc.).
