GB2293437A - Heat source for boiler - Google Patents

Abstract

A heat source for a boiler comprises a vessel A with a spherical or cylindrical chamber P containing a liquid, electromechanical means E, F for vibrating the liquid and applying a charge to it, and protrusions G which vibrate in sympathy and may also act as electrodes. The liquid may be heavy water, water or electrolyte. The device splits the water into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas, causes cavitation of the gases, and produces heat. Water to be heated is passed through ports B in the vessel body A and can be used for central heating or steam production. Fig 2 (not shown) depicts a simpler arrangement with only one electromechanical vibrator and no protrusions. <IMAGE>

Description

Cavatrox A/1/X and A/2/X Ilcrcar.

Description.

The object of this device is to cause an advanced dissociation action within a confined liquid or gas, hereon termed "the source", ignite resultant gasses immediately they form causing an advanced cavitation effect and transferring the heat given off to aid some form of domestic or industrial heat requirement.

The device will enable the source material to be subjected to high physical and chemical distress aided by the DC current.

The device consists of a strong vessel. The body must be able to contain the hot expanding source material. The body being preferably made of metal to enable the safe containment of the said source which in this example case will be H20 and the object of the enhanced cavitation action.

Within the body there will consist one or more electro mechanical means of vibrating the contained water E and F in A/1/X and E in A/2/X. These said electro mechanical means will have the ability to have the vibrations modulated to various frequencies to aid better control of the device. Though a fix frequency would not stop the device from working on what could be a fixed, desired setting.

The device will have a means of inducing a plus and minus DC current within P the contained environment. Poles L and N in A/1/X or N and R in A/2/X are shown here as the carriers of this DC electrical current though the vibrotones as in G could like wise be used to discharge the DC electrical flow within the contained environment P. Though any plus or minus pole situated with in the chamber P could still have a desired effect.

The contained source material, water in this case should have an electrolyte within it to aid the chemical and physical separation of the constituent parts of H20 in to gas. Such inclusion of electrolyte is not obligatory but would be beneficial to the speed and efficiency of the disassociation of the water element.

Within the body of the device vibrotones as in G A/1/X are so designed to vibrate in sympathy with the adjusted or fixed vibrations of E and F. Said vibrations from vibrotones enabling a greater enhancement of the action of disassociation of the water in to gas, hydrogen and oxygen.

The electro mechanical oscillations combined with the electro chemical advantage of a DC current through water containing an electrolyte represents the optimum working condition for the device.

A means of evacuation of the source material is required as in safety valve J together with a top up system K via D.

1] It is well known that water and other liquids can be split to form gas. In the case of water or H20 it can be dissociated to provide hydrogen and oxygen gas. If this mixture is ignited the gas will detonate and return to the liquid state.

2] To split H20 is possible with a simple apparatus consisting of a direct current with a plus and a minus electrode in a solution containing an electrolyte.

3] The law of conservation of energy as we understand it, tells us that the energy put in to effect the change from water to gas and the energy in the form of heat, given of is in theory the exact amount of energy put in.

4] So therefor there is no net gain. However there are heat losses in the process which this device is addressing to limit to a minimum the loss, in order to extract the maximum energy available in the form of energy transfer.

5] Chemical and physical methods can be used to disassociate water in to gas. It is well known that Sound, vibration, DC current, are able to aid the splitting.

6] A phenomena known as cavitation, affects propellers of high powered boats and submarines, where a particular type of erosion takes place that burns away parts of the propeller in an action thought to be of air forming and collapsing so fast that the heat generated causes high temperate spots and slowly, erosion to the propeller occurs.

7] The energy involved in either cavitation or the previously known methods of dissociation of liquids is high and the net return low.

8] This invention relates to a device able to disassociate efficiently, liquids such as H20 in to hydrogen and oxygen, cause cavitation of the resultant gasses and produce heat.

9] This invention is novel in concept though it takes known phenomena and enhances it to offer a new method of producing heat from energy. There will be no efficiency rates mentioned in this application except to say with development of this device, very useful returns are to be expected.

10] The Cavatrox is a device for producing heat, which could be likened to an industrial or domestic heating boiler.

11] The device which will be referred in some cases as CTX in following descriptions is an invention that will allow the dissemination of H20 or other suitable liquids or gasses such as D20 in to their constituent parts freeing the gasses in a manner that produces heat within the device.

12] The device in essence produces heat, similar to that of any gas or oil fired boiler that can heat water to enable the warming of spaces or domestic water.

13] The CTX Effect [Will be referred to as the CTX/EFJ allows the device to heat up any liquids or gasses which are passed through the heat exchanger of the device to enable the heating of water or the production of steam in order that the energy can be used to aid other process due to the heated liquids or gases.

14] The CTX/EF is clean in all respects as it does not emit either carbon monoxides as with the burning of carbon based fuels or require radioactive elements that are dangerous. As in the case of H20 the Oxygen Hydrogen gas which is released, is immediately burned within the confinement of the device with a microscopic implosion of the gasses as they are released, turning the gases to water [or what ever suitable liquid or gas is used within the devices 15] The source material is not depleted as a small percentage of it is in constant change back to the base source material.

16] Drawings A/1/X and A/2/X are essentially spherical containment environment vessels as seen at P with outer body A designed to surround the spherical environment with a heat exchanger designed to incorporate ports as seen in B. This will allow liquids or gasses to be passed through to transfer the heat from body A.

17] C is a pressure vessel and acts as a reservoir [not to scale] which contains the same working fluid or gasses that exists within the environment. C is required for topping up the environment in certain situations.

18] D represents a non return valve stopping pressure from P but the means for the flow of top up fluid between C and P.

19] E and F are high frequency electromechanical devices able to be fixed or adjusted to various speeds of vibration within the environment A/2/X shows only one.

20] Within the CTX A/1/X are shaped protrusions, these vibrotones G will move in sympathy to the high intensity vibrations from parts E and F. However this application does no wish to limit the principal of the CTX/EF with the design as mentioned and is shown in drawing A/2/X that there are no vibrotones shown in this design though the efficiency and liquids or gasses used within each of the two devices will give different efficiency readings.

21] J is a safety valve. This will allow any gasses following an over pressure situations from within the confined environment area to be expelled.

22] K is the connection between C and the environment P, via the non return valve within pasage way D.

23] L and N represents the two poles within A/1/X and a single pole at N within A/2/X.

24] M in A/1/X shows the highest activity area in the boost phase.

25] 0 shows the outer field of the environment.

26] P the contained Environment.

27] R as seen in A/2/X shows a partial sphere shape opposing N within the environment.

28] The device can be manufactured in several shapes so it would be impractical to mention all of them here in this application.

However here is mentioned the principal main requirements of the device, which are, a containment, able to with hold high pressures.

That the containment is strong and be able to dissipate heat with a heat exchanger. The materials must be able to withstand the intense heat of an oxygen/hydrogen burn, as for H20 within the confinement area.

That the high frequency osculations are variable, for optimum efficiency, though a fixed osculation might be desirable in certain circumstances.

The osculations be generated by one or more devices incorporated within the design and where vibrotones as indicated at G are included in to the design they too are designed in durable material. That the device be able to generate a high frequency vibration within the environment area to aid the dissemination of the material within the environment.

The device can be designed either in a spherical containment as seen in this application or in a tubular form so that the containment is long with stop ends, or even a race track design where the containment is within various sized circular tube containment. The device requires a safety valve to release gas should there be a situation of over heating as indicated via J.

A pressurized top up system as indicated at C is desirable to enable the speedy reuse of the device though the principal of the working of the CTX does not demand its inclusion.

29] Tha CTX can be used as a: a] Central heating boiler b] Steam producer, to power mechanical devices.

c] To produce heat to activate processes which are either electromechanically or electrochemically operated.

Claims (1)

1. CLAIMS.

   1] The CTX A/1/X which has been revered to is a device that will allow the dissemination/disassociation of H20 or other suitable liquids or gasses into their constituent parts changing the state of the source material and this example case of H20, hydrogen and oxygen in a manner that cavitation occurs to the resultant gasses to produce heat.

   2] In the case of H20 the CTX effectively parts the bond between hydrogen and oxygen liberating the two gases that, within the environment [P] of the device ignite giving off heat then return to the liquid state. This is called the CTX/EF within this document. This action being repeated on a continuous basis with no appreciable loss of liquid or gasses with in the device.

   3] The CTX is designed to allow minimum energy input, in the form of electricity with energy output in the form of heat. The efficiency of, energy in, energy out is dependent on the differing materials required to be disassociated within the CTX.

   4] The CTX is a vessel that contains a liquid in this example case of H20. This application does not however limit it to the water compound . Other applications can be made using the basic principal of the CTX, aided by the electrochemical electrophysical action within the confinement of the environment P to produce a variation of the CTX/EF.

   5] The CTX may require an electrolyte to aid the chemical electrophysical action to help aid the parting of the liquid bond in an enhanced action.

   6] However this application does not limit the action of the CTX by requiring an electrolyte or that of having to induce a DC current through the environment to obtain the CTX/EF. However an electrolyte and a DC current will be mentioned as part of the process in the following as it represents the optimum working method.

   7] The water plus electrolyte within the CTX is subjected to high frequency vibrations at an adjusted speed and power setting that with the aid of a Direct Current adjusted to the correct power setting between poles L and N will produce the CTX/EF In essence using H20 will be a microscopic dissemination of the water causing oxygen/hydrogen implosion due to the electrophysical influence generated by the electromechanical devices as indicated at E or E/F the speed of dissemination being controlled to avoid blowout and shut down.

   The description of PRINCIPAL OF OPERATION 10] The CTX works in the following manner. The environment [area P on the drawing] is subjected to the restraint of the device being a sealed mechanical unit. Manufactured to form a vessel able to confine pressure and be able to dissipate heat which is achieved by a flow of either water or other liquid or gasses able to absorb heat from the example ports as seen at B.

   11] The CTX will heat up quickly and is so designed with a heat exchanger built around the core [or environment] the shape and design of the method of drawing off the heat is open to change however there are ten ports as B in this illustration that will indicate the principal of the working of the device.

   12] Within the device there are two poles L and N each have the ability to be vibrated at variable high frequencies with the ability to deliver a boost power surge as required and able to discharge a DC current through the source material between them in area M.

   13] The mechanisms to help achieve this is indicated by the two devices marked E and F which can be either AC or DC powered to generate the vibration frequency required but each ideally being able to carry a DC charge to the poles L/N and energise through the H20 via the electrolyte the gap M being the bridge and highest electrical zone. The DC current can be transmitted by two poles within the environment though poles L N represent optimum position.

   14] Poles L and N can either be the same length or as shown L is a little shorter. The effect is that the oscillations between the two poles can be modified and unbalanced due to an adjustable length in order to gain the correct and required working field that will be generated while in action. Incorrect position of poles L and N will result in either non function or excessive heat causing a possible blow out or damage to the device or possible detonation.

   15] The device containment area is the environment where the field is set up to persuade the oxygen atom to dislodge due to the electrophysical action. The oscillations of L/N set up sympathy rebound oscillations with the vibrotones marked G these being fitted to all surfaces with in the environment all pointing in toward the centre forming the inner field at their tips.

   16] The tips of the vibrotones form the boundary of the inner field within the environment. In this form the water within the confinement and specially within the inner field is subjected to immense stress with the water moving faster in some areas of the confinement than others, thus forming an electro static charge between platelets of water. This action together with the electrolyte contained within the confinement water will, aided by the constant DC charge from the two poles produce the CTX/EF though without the electrolyte or constant DC current it is still possible to obtain an effect of useful proportions.

   17] The high speed of action within the environment in the inner field M will produce oxygen and hydrogen gas which will be ignited by the vigorous action of the containment liquid aided initially by the direct current which can be a stepped or penthouse charge for control, though this device will work on a simple DC charge through any plus and minus electrode placed within the environment. Using the poles L/N is the optimum position with this type of design.

   18] In some devices it will be beneficial for the vibrotones to have a dual use in that it will function in its physical sense of being able to vibrate in sympathy with and powered by F/E oscillations and also act as an electrode for the DC current.

   Each or chosen vibrotones being either plus or minus, the vibrotones being manufactured in a manner to allow it to be an electrically insulated unit, and able to conduct a DC charge to the tip, and form in unison with other vibrotones of either plus or minus polarity, the tips forming the circumference of the inner field to the environment.

   19] Within the areas marked 0 within the environment, is the outer field where the resonance is less intense due to the firm fixings of the vibrotones, the tips being able to flex in sympathy with the power input of F/E.

   20] The CTX is designed to produce, in this example, Oxygen and Hydrogen and ignite the resultant gas at an early stage in the cycle immediately it changes form by the release of the oxygen atom and within a millisecond burn and implode [sometimes described as the cavatational effect] the resultant gas will return to its previous state of being a liquid and releasing heat in the process. Some gasses will have the same properties. The cycle being effectively controlled will result in no appreciable loss of H20 or other source material and only require control, as described in this document to continue the cycle within the environment.

   21] The hot area will initially be within area M though after initial start by boost power from F/E and the adjusted boost DC current between poles L/N across field M will then require a drop in power resulting in the majority of the inner field being subjected to the energy input of both F/E and the DC current with less effect within the outer field as described thus forming two connected but opposing fields within the containment. The CTX/EF will continue for a short duration should the power be discontinued to either the DC circuits or that of either E or E/F this will allow an on off sequence to help control the working temperature within the device and help eliminate erosion due to the high microscopic but prolific oxygen hydrogen burn, in the case of water, that will be taking place within the environment.

   22] The shape of the device in essence, as drawn, is that the environment is a sphere within a heat exchanger around it, the shape of the heat exchanger not being critical in describing the principal within this patent. It ought to be said that the environment can be of any internal shape that produces the same effect. The vibrotones can be like wise designed in many forms that can achieve the same effect of activating the CTX/EF As an example of a different design that will achieve a the CTX/EF as seen in drawing A/2/X there are no vibrotones within the device and that there is a partial sphere shield R and one power source E. The effect is similar, but less pronounced to that of A/1/X. The design using R to deflect the power within the containment produces two areas of differential stress within the liquid that of the area around N and that of the area behind R causing the dissemination to occur. A Direct Current via poles R and N are required to boost start the device. A/2/X type design will render it a sturdier device and be less likely to fail by heat errosion or failure of the vibrotones due to fatigue.

   23] In the event of a blowout where the liquid or gasses can not be contained due to an over pressure situation, J will release the pressure safety valve and stop all working action of the Device.

   24] J can be connected to mechanical means to also cut any power input to the device as a further safety measure.

   25] In the event of a blowout container C will have top up source material to be able to prime the environment ready for a restart. Passage way K is the means of injecting the required material in to the environment area and has a non return valve at D to contain the high working pressure within the device.

   Container C is a pressure vessel able to serve the environment at the pressure it requires to prime the device to the correct level.

   26] It is important to take away the heat produced as the device will heat up quickly. The controls mentioned are most important in order to mute the action of the device. The changes that will do this are to: A] Reduce the power input to poles L/N via devices F and E B] Reduce DC current to poles L/N C] Supply a step or penthouse DC currant to poles L.N.

   D] Unbalance the field at P by reducing the length of one or both poles at L or and N.

   E] Reduce pressure in the environment by venting pressure safety Valve J which will blowout environment and cease field action.

   F] Pulse the electricity on off via L/N or as B above in conjunction to control heat out put.

   F] Use a combination of the above to control the device to serve at what ever heat output is required.

   27] The CVX will function with other liquids within the environment such as D20 where different settings of power input and heat extraction is different to that of ordinary H20 the principals of the action will not however change. Though efficient control of the device will differ markedly with different liquids gasses or electrolytes.
