  • Figure 13 shows the head in another embodiment, with more internal channels, and with a different type of supply stem having an internal thread, and the internal channels of the head do not have curved conical tapers.
  • the present invention embodies a special type of head - a dispersion head which is a system of swirl chamber-type nozzles, intended primarily for effervescent flows, i.e. the gas-liquid mixture supplying the head is highly dispersed, and for the regular operation of this head the supply pressure of a two-phase mixture in the range from 3 to 20 bar is sufficient, which is the range of operation of dispersion heads referred to as "low pressure".
  • the head is a system of swirl chamber-type nozzles, i.e., the streams inside the individual channels formed in the inter-vane space conduits of the head move along a helical line to create a strong, unstable vortex aft the stator inside the conical cavity of the taper.
  • the head has an improved design based on the special arrangement and shape of the internal supply channels and the advanced design of the stator structure.
  • the multi-channel mist head for spraying liquids provisioned directly with a fine mixture of liquid and gas, including a supply stem and a sealed dome thereon provided with internal pass-through channels, terminated with egress ducts reaching the face of the dome, according to the invention, is characterized in that the circular in cross section dome 1 (cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal axis d-d of the symmetry of the dome), including the body 5 and the face, especially in a form of a spherical bowl 3, contains in said body 5 several internal pass-through channels, each of them with a variable cross section, i.e.
  • one central channel 10 having an egress duct 4 in the center of a flat, curved or multi-surface bowl 3, located along the symmetry axis d-d of the dome 1, and at least two side channels 11, separate from the d-d axis of symmetry of the dome 1 by a certain distance and also terminated on the outflow side by egress ducts 4 with exits.
  • the longitudinal axes of cylindrical egress ducts 4 are perpendicular to the outer surface of the bowl 3.
  • the arrangement of the exits of the egress ducts 4 on the bowl 3 may be defined by concentrically arranged circles on the surface of the bowl 3.
  • the central channel 10 is then placed in the center of the bowl 3 and in the center of several e.g., 2, 3 or 4 circles, with the side channels 11 placed on their circumference.
  • the number of side channels 11 may be from 2 to 26, for example from 6 to 20.
  • the amount and the location of the egress ducts 4 on the bowl 3 must assure an even and spatially organized plume of the generated mist.
  • the head according to the invention comprises a dome 1 and, on the side of the supply tank, tightly connected to it or fixed in it a supply stem 2, which includes a supply channel 8 ending on the downstream side, widened in relation to the supply channel 8, with a funnel-shaped mouth 9, spanning, in terms of its size, specifically: adjusted in diameter and depth, all the side channels 11, and thus ensuring an even provisioning of the central channel 10 and the side channels 11 in the dome 1 of the mist head.
  • the transition of the supply channel 8 into the funnel-shaped mouth 9 is axially located, and in the exemplary embodiment, it is profiled, lacking sharp edges.
  • a concave accumulator 16 (concave to the upstream side), which ensures even distribution of the supply stream among individual channels, i.e. the central channel 10 and side channels 11.
  • the leak-proof connection of the dome 1 with the supply stem 2 can, as in an exemplary embodiment, be realized by providing the body 5 with a stem flue chamber 17, which is sized and shaped to fit the stem flue 19, i.e., both may for example have a cylindrical shape.
  • the supply stem 2 may be provided with an exterior stem flange 20 located upstream the stem flue 19.
  • the stem flange 20 also has, cut in the body 5, a stem flange chamber 18, of a matching shape and size.
  • the stem flange 20 and a stem flange chamber 18 have closely fitting cylindrical shapes.
  • the supply stem 2 is also provided with means of fixture for connecting it to a liquid fire medium supply source, and, in the exemplary embodiment, it is a crimping shank 6 with grooves for tight fitting a rubber hose on it or a threaded shank 7 which includes an external or internal thread for screwing a suitably threaded supply end.
  • the central channel 10 and the side channels 11 placed in the dome 1 have a particularly designed shape tapering towards the exit.
  • the body 5 On the upstream side, the body 5 has a cylindrical segment of the central channel 14 and a cylindrical segment of the side channel 15, and then in the downstream direction, the cylindrical segments of the central channel 14 and the cylindrical segments of the side channel 15 extend smoothly starting from said cylindrical segment walls, respectively, as the conical taper of the central channel 12 and as the possibly curved conical taper of the side channel 13, then each of ends with an egress duct 4, for example drilled in the body 5, so that these egress ducts 4 have a form of short cylinders abutting the tops of the conical tapers of the central channel 12 and the conical tapers of the side channel 13.
  • the central channel 10 has a longitudinal axis of symmetry passing through the egress duct 4, while the side channels 11 preferably do not have such an axis of symmetry. It will be obvious to a person skilled in the art that it is the best for the central channel 10 and the side channels 11 also to have a circular cross section in their conical fragments, but in the actual implementation there are however limitations due to the method of manufacture of these central channels 10 and side channels 11.
  • the c - c axis in the curved conical taper of the side channel 13 is drawn along the segment of a circle with radius r connecting the axis of the cylindrical segment of the side channel 15 to the desired location of the base of the egress duct 4.
  • all the egress ducts 4 orientated along the extensions of the curved axes of the side channels 11 are divergent, so that the egress ducts 4 assure a divergent direction of the mist streams being produced.
  • the egress duct 4 of the central channel 10 provides the axial direction of the mist, i.e., along the d-d axis of symmetry of the dome 1.
  • the improvement of the head design consists, as well, in fastening stators 21 at least in part of the internal channels including the central channel 10 and side channels 11, in their cylindrical segments 14, 15.
  • the conical taper cavity of the central channel 12 and the conical taper cavity of the side channel 13 swirl chambers are created.
  • Each stator 21 aligned with the longitudinal axis of said cylindrical segment of the central channel 14 and/or cylindrical segment of the side channel 15 comprises a longitudinal core 22 along the axis b-b shown in Fig.
  • the profiled vane 28 is defined as the distance between the left surface of the vane 26 and the right surface of the vane 27 and is variable, i.e. the profiled vanes 28 are tapered towards the b-b axis of the core 22 - have a curvilinear-conic structure, and are intended to create optimal conduits in the inter-vane space conduit.
  • the profiled vane 28 is as thin as possible and cut perpendicularly and flush with the base of the core 22 as shown in Fig. 11 .
  • the lower (upstream) portion of the left surface of the vane 26 and the right surface of the vane 27 are approximately parallel to each other, if possible, tilted from 0 to 20°, preferably less than 15° away from the direction of the incoming fluid (this is the deviation of the f-f axis with respect to the e - e axis in Fig. 11A ), while in the downstream part both surfaces form a wedge (from the top in Fig. 11A ) because the incidence angle is significantly different between these surfaces (see the g-g axis in Fig. 11A ), each is at an acute angle.
  • the upper (downstream) side of the vane 28 is arched, because the trailing edge of the vane 28 is designed in the shape of a wedge, where due to the incidence angle of the left surface being almost 90° said wedge is bent downward to limit the flow resistance behind the stator 21.
  • each vane 28, on the upstream side is optionally provided with interference locking cogs 24 anchoring the entire stator 21 in the cylindrical segment of the central channel 14 or the cylindrical segment of the side channel 15.
  • the anchoring may consist of pressing a sharp edge of the interference locking cog 24 into the material of the dome 1 adjacent to the stator 21 in this region.
  • Fig. 10A and 10B it is possible to mount and stabilize the stators 21 differently.
  • the dome 1 of the head is an element separate from the stator 21, therefore in order to save on labour cost and take advantage from the 3D printing technology, it may prove beneficial to amalgamate all the stators 21 onto a common base in the form of discus 29 and place this combined element approximately where the b-b line is presented in Fig. 10 , between funnel-shaped mouth 9 and the central channel 14 and the side channels 15 of the dome 1. Therefore, all the stators 21 are placed above the discus 29, where the cylindrical sections of the central channel 14 and the side channels 15 of the dome 1 are extended.
  • the discus 29 has the same number of channels as the number of internal channels (central channel 14 and the side channels 15) in the dome 1 and the diameters of channels in the discus 29 are the same as the diameter of the corresponding internal channels in the dome 1.
  • the channels in the disk are matched in position to the position of the corresponding internal channels of the dome 1.

  • Rack 30 has axial and straight vanes, which abut smoothly the lower edges of the vanes 28 of the stator 21.
  • the supply stream is divided so that the individual streams gain an angular velocity, and each of them leaves this inter-vane space conduit approximately in the direction forced by the g-g axis orientation.
  • variable pitch of the helical line defining the inter-vane space conduits and the increase in the thickness of the vanes 28 downstream toward the point where a "throat" is formed (the narrowing of the width i shown in Fig. 11A ) in the inter-vane space conduit, means, that in this area a decreasing cross section of the inter-vane space conduit, formed between adjacent vanes 28 and additionally confined by the core 22 and adjacent to the vanes 28 walls of the cylindrical segments 14, 15, is attained (as shown schematically by the arrows in Fig. 11A ).

  • the ratio of the cross sectional area (perpendicular to the hypothetical axis of this inter-vane space conduit), at the narrowest point of the inter-vane space conduit (the so-called "throat” - a constriction) to the cross-sectional area of this space on the ingress side (width h shown in Fig. 11A ), near the supply channel 8, is at least 1: 2, for example, it is from 1: 2 to 1: 8, and is 1: 3, 1: 4, 1: 5, 1: 6, 1: 7 or 1: 8.
  • the cross-sectional area of the downstream inter-vane space conduit is not less than the cross-sectional area at the "throat", and preferably, the cross-sectional area of the downstream inter-vane space conduit is greater than the cross-sectional area at that constriction.
  • vanes 28, and consequently also the helix defining the inter-vane space conduits can be right-handed as shown in Fig. 11 , but can also be left-handed.
  • the stator 21 may optionally be slightly wider at the base, in the upstream portion, to be press-fitted in the cylindrical segment of the central channel 14 and cylindrical segment of the side channel 15.
  • the widened base of the stator 21 and optionally the interference locking cogs 24 ensure effective fastening of the stator 21 at the seat.
  • the upstream side is the bottom side in the figures and the downstream side (mist plume exit) is the top side in the figures, where the terms “upper” or “lower” are used in this specification to follow the convention described.
  • Fig. 1 shows the head in the first embodiment of the invention, where the dome bowl has a spherical shape and all the egress ducts are cut through this one, common, spherical shell of the bowl, along with an indicated curved side channels allowing for a divergent (non-collision) layout of the individual streams coming out from the egress ducts, and thus the mist streams generated in the side channels of the head similarly diverge one from the other.
  • Fig. 12 shows the cross section of the dome with the central channel oriented axially with respect to the head body (along the marked d-d axis), and the egress duct of the side channel is deviated from this axis by an angle ⁇ ranging from 10° to 45°, especially from 15° to 30°, such as from 18° to 21°.
  • the cylindrical segments of all internal channels are oriented parallel to the d-d axis of the head.
  • Another embodiment of the invention is also possible, in which some, or all the egress ducts together with the internal channels of the dome are oriented parallel to each other and may have axially symmetric conical tapers or curved conical tapers, and this is also a non-collision arrangement.
  • some of the internal channels it is possible for some of the internal channels to have cylindrical segments oriented parallel to the d-d axis of the head, and to some at an acute angle to this axis.
  • Fig. 13 shows an embodiment of the invention where only a part of the internal channels in their cylindrical segments are mutually parallel and extend in the direction of the axis d-d of the head.
  • the illustrated dome bowl contains a flat central surface surrounded by a second, oblique circumferential surface, the extremity of which is lowered from the central flat surface.
  • some or all the side channels may be shaped like a central channel, i.e., they may have a longitudinal axis of symmetry extending through the cylindrical segment of the channel, and further through a conical taper as far as the egress duct (symmetrical channel).
  • This variant of the invention may not require the conical tapers of the inner side channels to be curved, i.e., there will be no channels with a curve-guiding axis c - c as shown in Fig. 12 .
  • the flat central surface of the bowl contains one central channel and six symmetrically positioned side channels around the central channel, all seven channels being identical in shape, and curved-profile channels are absent in this area.
  • the cylindrical segments of the internal channels located on the oblique, circumferential surface of the bowl are placed at an acute angle of up to 45° in relation to the aforementioned d-d axis of the head.
  • the angle ⁇ described above may be even greater than 30°, e.g., from 10° to 60°, or from 30° to 45°.
  • the head according to the invention comprises refined pass-through internal channels, modified by inserting a specific-type stator, but it does not have to include only such channels. It may also include other types of channels, without stators, e.g., known channels with a typical structure, e.g., symmetrically conical tapering along their entire length until reaching the egress openings.
  • the head according to the invention may comprise a combination of the refined channels according to the invention and other channels, being advisable that e.g., channels of a known type be arranged e.g. in pairs symmetrically, alternating with the refined channels, or alternating in concentric circles: on one circle just one type of channels, and another type of channels on the other circle, etc.
  • the mist head according to the invention has a specific, improved structure and works as an effervescent nozzle, but it generates mist even in the regime when, due to an increased concentration of gas in the two-phase flow, there is virtually no proper liquid supply to the head and ensures proper performance with single-phase provision at pressures above 8 bar.
  • a) internal channels are designed as rounded throughout in their entire space
  • egress ducts are designed in a non-collision arrangement, i.e. the component mist streams generated in each channel do not collide with each other, and at the same time a widened mist plume is provided
  • c) at least some of the channels are provided with a stator which divides the supply stream and then drives the component streams in a helical motion, with the stator over the predominant segment amounting to at least 3/4 of their run has tapered intra-vane conduits to improve the quality of the mist being produced.
  • the process leading to obtaining a high dispersion rate of the mist plume is organised in several stages inside the body of the dispersion head; first, the liquid stream is divided into individual streams upon entering different channels of the head, then, each individual stream is further subdivided upon entering separate conduits of the inter-vane spaces - formed by the stator vanes and the wall.
  • the medium accelerates significantly until passing through a narrowed in relation to the channel width throat (constriction), and gains a significant angular velocity component, therefore upon exiting the inter-vane spaces individual tributaries converge and just aft the vanes primarily by way of warping and stretching the interface (by distorting the gas bubbles) a very intense fragmentation of the interface takes place while a highly unsteady self-constricting vortex of refined phase mixture rushes towards the egress duct. Finally, within the area egress duct the droplets of the mist stream undergo a final breakdown under the action of both, the centrifugal force and the eruption of fine gas bubbles contained in the mixture.
  • the head according to the invention can be used in several types of devices, in particular fire extinguishers, e.g., in diverse types of mist extinguishers.
