Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to the application of emulsification technology and more particularly, to an emulsifier system, which emulsifies a high pressure flow of mixed fluid and gas by means of a cavitation effect.
- Micro air bubbles released from air dissolved water after relief of pressure are intensively and successfully used in water treatment and for other applications. The smaller the size of air bubbles is the longer the retaining time of air bubbles in water and the greater the effect of air bubbles will be. Emulsification occurs when the density of air bubbles in water reaches the peak. For emulsification, the diameter of air bubbles must be reduced to a limited number of micrometers. Therefore, how to obtain air bubbles at a relatively smaller diameter and a relatively higher density is one important subject of pressure flotation.
- Taiwan patent number
245667 - However, due to structural limitation, the size and density of the air bubbles produced by the aforesaid patent cannot reach the emulsification condition.
- The inventor discovered that when a liquid is flowing in a region where the pressure of the liquid falls below its vapor pressure, vapor bubbles will be formed in the liquid. The vapor bubbles will soon collapse and release high energy. This phenomenon is called cavitation in fluid mechanics.
- The inventor further discovered that when a liquid is flowing in a cavitation zone, micro air bubbles will be released from the liquid. Further, when cavitation bubbles collapse, contained air will be dissolved into fine bubbles, at the same time the high energy released due to collapse of cavitation bubbles will produce more air bubbles in the liquid, causing an emulsification effect.
- Therefore, it is the main object of the present invention to provide an emulsifier system, which utilizes the cavitation effect of fluid mechanics to spread air bubbles in water, causing formation of emulsification.
- To achieve this and other objects of the present invention, the emulsifier system comprises a mixing pump, a water source in water communication with the mixing pump for providing a fluid to the mixing pump, a water intake regulator in communication with the mixing pump for regulating the flow rate of the fluid being supplied the water source to the mixing pump, an air intake regulator in communication with the mixing pump for regulating the flow rate of a gas into the mixing pump for dissolving in the fluid being supplied to the mixing pump for enabling the mixing pump to output a high pressure flow of mixed fluid and gas, and a emulsifier connected to the mixing pump to receive the high pressure flow of mixed fluid and gas outputted by the mixing pump. The emulsifier comprises a housing, a partition board mounted in the housing and dividing the housing into a front chamber and a rear chamber, the partition board comprising a plurality of narrow holes disposed in communication between the front chamber and the rear chamber for causing a cavitation effect to emulsify the high pressure flow of mixed fluid and gas when the high pressure flow of mixed fluid and gas is flowing into the emulsifier.
- According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the narrow holes of the emulsifier have a width smaller than 0.3mm so that the cavitation zone takes more than 20% of the cross sectional area of the narrow holes.
- According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the emulsifier further comprises a gap adjustment plate mounted on one side of the partition board and movable relative to the partition board to regulate the passage of the narrow holes, the gap adjustment plate comprising a plurality of narrow holes corresponding to the narrow holes of the partition board.
- According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mixing pump is a centrifugal pump comprising a housing, a pump shaft mounted in the housing, at least one impeller vane rotatable with the pump shaft relative to the housing, and at least one fixed vane affixed to the inside of the housing, the at least one impeller vane and the at least one fixed vane each comprising an outer wheel disk and a plurality of passages cut through the outer wheel disk for the passing of the high pressure flow of mixed fluid and gas axially.
- Other features and advantages of the present invention will be fully understood from the further technological features disclosed by the preferred embodiments, simply by way of illustration of modes best suited to carry out the invention.

FIG. 1 is a plain view of an emulsifier system in accordance with the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a part of the present invention, showing the structure of the mixing pump. -
FIG. 3 is a plain view of a part of the mixing pump according to the present invention. -
FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the emulsifier of the emulsifier system according to the present invention. -
FIG. 5 is a sectional view of an alternate form of the emulsifier of the emulsifier system according to the present invention. - Referring to
FIGS. 1-3 , anemulsifier system 10 comprises awater source 20, amixing pump 30, awater intake regulator 40, anair intake regulator 50, acheck valve 60, anemulsifier 70 and the necessary piping. - The
water source 20 is connected with themixing pump 30 through afirst pipe 25 to supply water to themixing pump 30. To assure clean water supply, awater filter 21 is installed in the water outlet of thewater source 20 to remove solid matters from water being delivered to themixing pump 30, avoiding blocking of the flow path in the system. - The
water intake regulator 40 is installed in thefirst pipe 25 and adapted for regulating the flow rate of water being delivered from thewater source 20 to themixing pump 30. - The
air intake regulator 50 is installed in asecond pipe 45 and adapted for regulating the flow rate of air being supplied to themixing pump 30 for mixing with water. Thesecond pipe 45 is connected to thefirst pipe 25 between thewater intake regulator 40 and themixing pump 30. - The
mixing pump 30 is kept in water communication with thewater source 20, and adapted for producing a low pressure at the water intake port to induce flowing of water from thewater source 20 into the inside (housing) of themixing pump 30 and to suck in air for mixing with the intake flow of water, so as to output a saturated mixed flow of air and water of pressure greater than 4.0kg/cm2. As shown inFIGS. 2 and 3 , themixing pump 30 is a centrifugal type. Unlike conventional centrifugal pumps, comprising apump shaft 31, animpeller van 33 rotatable with thepump shaft 31, and a fixedvane 34 affixed to thehousing 32 of thecentrifugal mixing pump 30. Theimpeller van 33 has a plurality ofpassages 37 cut through the circularouter wheel disk 35 thereof. The fixedvane 34 has also a plurality ofpassages 38 cut through the circularouter wheel disk 36 thereof for the passing of high pressure mixed fluid of air and water in the axial direction. This will be described further. According to the present preferred embodiment as shown in the annexed drawings, thepassages passages impeller van 33 and the fixedvane 34 can be duplicated to form a multi-step mixing pump for producing a saturated mixed flow of air and water of relatively higher pressure. - The
check valve 60 is installed in thesecond pipe 45 between thefirst pipe 25 and theair intake regulator 50 to prohibit reverse flow of water from thefirst pipe 25 into theair intake regulator 50. Thecheck valve 60 and theair intake regulator 50 can be connected in parallel, forming a combination device. - The
emulsifier 70 is connected to themixing pump 30 through athird pipe 55. As shown inFIG. 4 , theemulsifier 70 comprises ahousing 71, and apartition board 72 mounted in thehousing 71 and dividing the inside space of thehousing 71 into afront chamber 73 and arear chamber 74. Thepartition board 72 has a plurality ofnarrow holes 75. Thesenarrow holes 75 constitute an emulsification path for causing cavitation upon flowing of a flow of mixed fluid of air and water. Because the cavitation effect is produced only at the edge of eachnarrow hole 75, thenarrow holes 75 have a width a below 0.3mm for obtaining a relatively higher proportion of cavitation zone so that the cavitation zone can be greater than 20% of the cross section of thenarrow holes 75. - During operation of the
emulsifier system 10, themixing pump 30 is started to suck in water from thewater source 20 through thefirst pipe 25 and at the same time, to suck in a proper amount of air from theair intake regulator 50 through thesecond pipe 45. When water and air are flowing into thehousing 32 during rotation of theimpeller vane 33, theimpeller vane 33 enhances the pressure and speed of the intake flow of water and the intake flow of air, causing the intake flow of air to be dissolved in water, forming a high pressure saturated mixed flow of air and water. When theimpeller vane 33 is moving the mixed flow of air and water toward theoutput port 39, the mixed flow of air and water flows axially through thepassages vane 34. At this time, the shear effect produced during rotation of theimpeller vane 33 relative to the fixedvane 34 crushes the unevenly distributed air bubbles, causing air bubbles to be evenly distributed in water and shortening the dissolving time of air in water. When the mixed flow of air and water is forced out of themixing pump 30, thethird pipe 55 delivers the mixed flow of air and water to thefront chamber 73 of theemulsifier 70. When the mixed flow of air and water is flowing through thenarrow holes 75 of theemulsifier 70, it is emulsified subject to a cavitation effect, and the emulsified fluid thus produced flows out of therear chamber 74 of theemulsifier 70 through afourth pipe 65 to awater tank 80, or flows back to thewater source 20. -
FIG. 5 shows an alternate form of the emulsifier. According to this alternate form, the emulsifier, referenced by 70a, is substantially similar to theaforesaid emulsifier 70 shown inFIG. 4 with the exception that this alternate form has an additionalgap adjustment plate 76. Thegap adjustment plate 76 is movably provided at one side of thepartition board 72, having a plurality ofnarrow holes 77. According to this embodiment, thenarrow holes 77 are formed on the additionalgap adjustment plate 76 corresponding to thenarrow holes 75 on thepartition plate 72. Further, the width of thenarrow holes narrow holes narrow holes 75 are fully opened. By means of moving thegap adjustment plate 76 relative to thepartition board 72 to deviate thenarrow holes 77 on thegap adjustment plate 76 from thenarrow holes 75 on thepartition board 72, the opening of thenarrow holes 75 on thepartition board 72 is adjusted, and therefore the passage gap b in between thefront chamber 73 and therear chamber 74 can be adjusted subject to different flow conditions. When the flow path of the system is blocked, the passage gap b can be adjusted to the maximum to discharge solid impurities. - Although particular embodiments of the invention have been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the invention is not to be limited except as by the appended claims.
