Abstract

1323872 Water-jet propulsion unit MINISTRY OF DEFENCE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR 12 Jan 1971 [23 Oct 1969] 52063/69 Heading B7V A marine propulsion unit, e.g. for hydrofoil and hovercraft, comprises an annular duct 1 attached to the hull of the craft by a hollow strut 2 down which air or other gas passes into a circumferential plenum 3 from whence it passes into the duct 1 through a group of holes 4 flush with the smooth inner surface of the duct 1. Within the duct 1 is a rotor 5 having a single row of blades 6 and carried on a streamlined central hub 7 which is supported from the duet by streamlined struts 8. The gas introduced into the water flowing within the duct 1 is distributed reasonably uniformly in small bubbles over the whole cross-section to produce a homogeneous two-phase flow which acts as a compressible fluid. The shape of the after portion of the duct is such as to cause this compressible fluid to expand thereby converting the pressure head within the duct into a velocity head at the duct exit. The channels formed between the blades 6 of the rotor 5 gradually deepen radially in the downstream direction to provide some or all of the extra volume occupied by the added gas. The gradual deepening may be due to the shape of the central hub 7 (Fig. 2, not shown) and this gradual deepening may be supplemented by a step in the duct surface upstream of the holes 4 (Fig. 3, not shown). In this latter arrangement, the water flow separates from the wall to produce a free water-gas interface which breaks up and thus induces rapid mixing of the gas and water. In either case, the distribution of the gas through the water is aided by the radial pressure gradient arising from the circumferential velocity compoment of the water.
