Definitions
- This invention is a centrifugal pump or compressor in which the blades are carried by a rotary housing surrounding a stationary difiuser section between the blades and the fluid outlet. It wfll pump any fluid, liquid or gas. Compactness is achieved by having the diffuser section extend radially inward from the tips of the blades. Other advantages are reduction in disc friction losses between the fluid and stationary parts of the pump, elimination of seals and reduction in slip between the fluid and the impeller blades.
- Two pumps may be mounted on opposite sides of a turbine rotor and used as a two propellant turbo pump system for rocket engines.
- FIG. 1 is a longitudinal section through a preferred form of turbo pump and FIG. 2 is a section on line 22 of FIG. 1 through one of the turbine buckets.
- the fluid to be compressed enters through an inlet 1 and is discharged through an outlet2, the discharge being taken from an annular discharge structure 3 surrounding the inlet structure 4.
- the inlet and outlet form the part of a stationary structure supported by mounting flanges 5 and 6.
- the inlet leads to impeller blades 7 carried by a rotatable housing 8 having axially spaced end walls 8a, 8b and a connecting peripheral wall 80.
- the blades 7 are fixed to the end wall 8a with the inner ends adjacent the center of the housing and the outer ends adjacent the peripheral wall of the housing.
- the edges of the blade 7 remote from the wall 8a may be connected by a shroud 9 having a running clearance with a wall 10 of a toroidal section 11 fixed to the inlet structure 4.
- the parts 9 and 10 pro vide a labyrinth seal which prevents or minimizes leakage.
- the housing is rotated by a turbine wheel 12 fixed to Wall 8a.
- the driving fluid for the turbine is supplied through an annular chamber 13 having nozzles 14 directed toward the turbine buckets "15'.
- the fluidbeing pumped is in contact with the hub of the turbine wheel and acts as a coolant.
- This is a significant advantage in gas turbines.
- the turbine buckets are anchored in the turbine wheel by axially extending dovetails 15a as shown in FIG. 2. Axial displacement of the blades is prevented by the shoulders 8d on the housing. This is particularly advantageous when there is a compressor on each side of the turbine whel as contemplated in FIG. 1, as this eliminates the use of bucket locking tabs.
- the fluid In passing through the blades 7, the fluid rotates at the same speed as the housing so that upon being discharged fro-m the outer ends or tips 16 of the blades the fluid has a very considerable increase in energy. Part of the in crease in energy is due to centrifugal force but ordinarily the greater part of the increase in energy will be the rotational energy of the fluid about the axis of the pump.
- the fluid In the region between the tips 16 of the blades 7 and the diffuser vanes 17, the fluid is rotating at high velocity but since the casing is rotating at the same speed as the fluid, slip is minimized. Since there is negligible slip, the rotational energy of the fluid is recaptured by diffuser vanes '17 carried by wall 18 of the toroidal section.
- the outer tips 19 of the diffuser vanes 17 are presented to the discharge tips 16 of the blades 7 and are inclined in the usual manner so as to convert the rotational velocity of the fluid into static pressure.
- the inner ends of the vanes discharge to the annular pasageway 3 leading to the outlet 2.
- a seal 25 is provided between the wall'22 and the rotating housing but this seal is not necessary unless the fluid being pumped is a gas.
- the seal protects the bearing 26 on which the rotary housing may be journaled.
- the pump has high capacity in a small space, first because the diffuser acts throughout the entire circumference of the rotary housing and second because the diffuser extends from the outer part back toward the axis of the rotary housing.
- the pump is adapted to high speeds because the fluid is uniformly distributed about the axis of rotation.
- the blades 23 and diffuser vanes 24 constitute a centrifugal pump which produces a pressure sufficient to more than balance the pressure created by vanes 7 and thus prevent any leakage.
- a controlled fluid level is maintained in the region between the walls 8b and 22.
- each pump When a pump is mounted on each side of the turbine wheel, each pump may handle a difierent fluid, e.g. pump on both sides of the turbine for two propellant turbo pump system used in rocket engines; pump on one side and an air compressor on the other side, discharge air from compressor may be burned and expanded through turbine to provide power for both compressor and'pump or other auxiliary equipment other than pump; compressor on both sides of turbine.
- This arrangement may be used for turbocharger or turbojet engine.
- the ex ⁇ haust gases from an internal combustion engine drive the turbine which in turn'drives the compressor to compress air to the engine whereas in a turbojet, the discharge gases from the compressor are burned and passed through the turbine and used for thrust.

B? WW 3,093,084 Patented June 11, 1963 P MP George Derderian, 239 W. 8th St., Erie, Pa. Filed Feb. 21, 1961, Ser. No. 90,717 7 Claims. (Cl. 10387) This invention is a centrifugal pump or compressor in which the blades are carried by a rotary housing surrounding a stationary difiuser section between the blades and the fluid outlet. It wfll pump any fluid, liquid or gas. Compactness is achieved by having the diffuser section extend radially inward from the tips of the blades. Other advantages are reduction in disc friction losses between the fluid and stationary parts of the pump, elimination of seals and reduction in slip between the fluid and the impeller blades. Two pumps may be mounted on opposite sides of a turbine rotor and used as a two propellant turbo pump system for rocket engines.
In the drawing, 'FIG. 1 is a longitudinal section through a preferred form of turbo pump and FIG. 2 is a section on line 22 of FIG. 1 through one of the turbine buckets.
The fluid to be compressed enters through an inlet 1 and is discharged through an outlet2, the discharge being taken from an annular discharge structure 3 surrounding the inlet structure 4. The inlet and outlet form the part of a stationary structure supported by mounting flanges 5 and 6.
The inlet leads to impeller blades 7 carried by a rotatable housing 8 having axially spaced end walls 8a, 8b and a connecting peripheral wall 80. The blades 7 are fixed to the end wall 8a with the inner ends adjacent the center of the housing and the outer ends adjacent the peripheral wall of the housing. The edges of the blade 7 remote from the wall 8a may be connected by a shroud 9 having a running clearance with a wall 10 of a toroidal section 11 fixed to the inlet structure 4. The parts 9 and 10 pro vide a labyrinth seal which prevents or minimizes leakage. The housing is rotated by a turbine wheel 12 fixed to Wall 8a. The driving fluid for the turbine is supplied through an annular chamber 13 having nozzles 14 directed toward the turbine buckets "15'. The fluidbeing pumped is in contact with the hub of the turbine wheel and acts as a coolant. This is a significant advantage in gas turbines. The turbine buckets are anchored in the turbine wheel by axially extending dovetails 15a as shown in FIG. 2. Axial displacement of the blades is prevented by the shoulders 8d on the housing. This is particularly advantageous when there is a compressor on each side of the turbine whel as contemplated in FIG. 1, as this eliminates the use of bucket locking tabs.
In passing through the blades 7, the fluid rotates at the same speed as the housing so that upon being discharged fro-m the outer ends or tips 16 of the blades the fluid has a very considerable increase in energy. Part of the in crease in energy is due to centrifugal force but ordinarily the greater part of the increase in energy will be the rotational energy of the fluid about the axis of the pump. In the region between the tips 16 of the blades 7 and the diffuser vanes 17, the fluid is rotating at high velocity but since the casing is rotating at the same speed as the fluid, slip is minimized. Since there is negligible slip, the rotational energy of the fluid is recaptured by diffuser vanes '17 carried by wall 18 of the toroidal section. The outer tips 19 of the diffuser vanes 17 are presented to the discharge tips 16 of the blades 7 and are inclined in the usual manner so as to convert the rotational velocity of the fluid into static pressure. The inner ends of the vanes discharge to the annular pasageway 3 leading to the outlet 2.
There is some opportunity for leakage of liquid between the wall 8b of the rotating housing and the wall 22 attached to the diffuser vanes 17. This leakage is prevented by blades 23 attached to the inner surface of the wall 8b of the housing and difluser vanes 24 attached to the outer surface of the wall 22. The combined effect of the blades 23 and difluser vanes 24 is to return any fluid to the region between the tips 16 and 19 of the blades and difluser vanes.
A seal 25 is provided between the wall'22 and the rotating housing but this seal is not necessary unless the fluid being pumped is a gas. The seal protects the bearing 26 on which the rotary housing may be journaled.
The pump has high capacity in a small space, first because the diffuser acts throughout the entire circumference of the rotary housing and second because the diffuser extends from the outer part back toward the axis of the rotary housing.
The pump is adapted to high speeds because the fluid is uniformly distributed about the axis of rotation.
From one aspect, the blades 23 and diffuser vanes 24 constitute a centrifugal pump which produces a pressure sufficient to more than balance the pressure created by vanes 7 and thus prevent any leakage. Thus a controlled fluid level is maintained in the region between the walls 8b and 22.
When a pump is mounted on each side of the turbine wheel, each pump may handle a difierent fluid, e.g. pump on both sides of the turbine for two propellant turbo pump system used in rocket engines; pump on one side and an air compressor on the other side, discharge air from compressor may be burned and expanded through turbine to provide power for both compressor and'pump or other auxiliary equipment other than pump; compressor on both sides of turbine. This arrangement may be used for turbocharger or turbojet engine. In a turbocharger, the ex{ haust gases from an internal combustion engine drive the turbine which in turn'drives the compressor to compress air to the engine whereas in a turbojet, the discharge gases from the compressor are burned and passed through the turbine and used for thrust. I v
The compressor will run as a turbine, in which case the driving fluid is supplied through the outlet 2 and dis-' charges through the inlet 1. This is the reverse of the fluid flow when operated as a compressor.
