Definitions
- the technical sector of the present invention is that of devices for dispersing solid particles in a fluid.
- a dispersing device must make it possible, for example, to overcome the difficulty of preserving certain unstable chemicals over a long period.
- the dispersion of solid in a liquid can, by integration, promote the charge of this liquid (coloring, etc.)
- US-A-4,009,005 describes a method for dispersing a particular solid, trichlorocyanuric and isocyanuric acid, in a particular liquid, sodium hydroxide. For this, we use a reactor containing the liqui ⁇ maintained under constant stirring and the soli ⁇ is introduced using a recycling of the liquid. The dispersion is therefore carried out over time and not instantaneously.
- Patent EP-A-102 333 also describes a method for dispersing a solid using a centrifugation means.
- the dispersion is obtained as above over time and not instantaneously.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a device for dispersing a solid in a low density fluid in which the dispersion is rapid and immediate, inducing a homogeneous and isotropic mixture.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a device for dispersing particles of a pulverulent solid in a low density fluid of between approximately 0.5 and 1.7, characterized in that it comprises a first enclosure containing the pulverulent solid, a second enclosure disposed near the first and containing the fluid and means for generating a pressure of the order of 1 MPa at the level of the pulverulent solid to project it into the fluid, the volume of the first enclosure being less than the volume of the second.
- the means for generating the pressure can be constituted by a pyrotechnic composition confined action ⁇ ing, by the combustion gases generated, a means for projecting the solid into the fluid.
- the first enclosure can be integrated into a cylinder in the vicinity of its end adjacent to the second enclosure.
- the means for generating the pressure can be integrated into the cylinder, the pyrotechnic composition being placed at the other end of the cylinder.
- the projection means can be constituted by a piston extended by an ejection plate and a rod extending within the pulverulent solid contained in the first chamber, the piston being actuated by the pressure of the gases in the cylinder.
- the first and second chambers can be closed in a sealed manner each by a sealed wall successively fractured by the rod, then by the ejection plate to put the two chambers in communication and to introduce the solid into the fluid.
- the first enclosure may be embedded in the second enclosure and may have a weakened bottom, the means for generating the pressure being integrated in the first enclosure.
- the means for generating the pressure may consist of a powder cylinder fixed to a cover of the first chamber and surrounded by a tube fixed at its end closed to the cover, the other end being open.
- the projection means can be constituted by a tubular sheath mounted tight and sliding relative to the tube, the bottom of which covers the open end of the tube, and the neck of which is secured to an ejection plate adjacent to the cover.
- the pyrotechnic composition can be black powder, the powdery solid of talc and the fluid a hydro ⁇ carbide.
- An advantage of the present invention lies in the causes the dispersion to take place in less than 1 millisecond.
- the final product can be immediately used to avoid all risks of accidents due to the use of a pressurized fluid enclosure in the context of a confined exothermic reaction.
- Another advantage lies in the simplicity of assembling the two chambers to implement a reaction between solid and fluid.
- Another advantage is the surprising ratio obtained by mass dispersed over mass by the disperser. This report acquires its full interest in the case of the use of an on-board disperser, for example on board an aircraft.
- Another advantage lies in the aging time which is equivalent to that of the pyrotechnic composition, of the powder to be dispersed and of the receiving fluid.
- FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section illus ⁇ trant another embodiment of the device according to the invention.
- optimization of the disperser is based on two overriding criteria: the unladen mass and the quality of the dispersion.
- the functions "setting in motion” and guiding the piston represent volumes and masses which should be carefully controlled.
- the design of the parts provided rant these functions allows to considerably reduce the mass to vi ⁇ of the disperser.
- the combustion chamber therefore consists of a fixed part (powder cylinder) and a movable part (piston and ejector plate) playing the role of fracturer and disperser.
- the powder holder cylinder is open at one end, which makes it possible, when using the device, to increase the volume of the combustion chamber.
- the adaptation of a powder-holding tube makes it possible to reduce the risks of inadvertent explosion by its installation at the last moment.
- the guide associated with the ejector plate sliding along the fixed part of the combustion chamber, prevents contact between the solid and the gases confined in the chamber.
- the watertightness of the disperser is guaranteed by threads with a gas profile, machined on the parts. Seals at the interfaces are ensured by flat seals to be adapted to the products.
- FIG 1 there is shown a longitu ⁇ dinal section of the device according to the invention where we see a storage element surmounting an expansion part 2 itself linked to a bearing structure 3.
- Part 1 consists of a cylinder 4 comprising three chambers 5, 6 and 7.
- the chamber 5 is said to be a combustion chamber, because it contains the pyrotechnic composition A generating a gas pressure. Its volume is of the order of 300 cm ⁇ t it can contain about 25 g of black powder.
- the black powder is chosen for the simplicity of its ignition, the risk of interaction between the gases and the solid being zero.
- the characteristics and composition of the black powder used for the feasibility tests are: potential 755 cal / g force 0.250 MJ / kg composition 74% potassium nitrate
- Chamber 6 contains the piston 8 and ensures its guiding.
- the piston 8 is hollow to provide an additional volume of expansion of the combustion gases.
- the seal between the piston 8 and the chamber 6 is improved by the seal 12.
- the piston 8 carries at its solid end a plate 9 and a rod 10 which fixes the plate to the piston.
- the rod 10 extends in the chamber 7 which contains the solid compound B. Its volume is of the order of 300 cm.
- the length of this rod must be at most equal to the length (1) of the chamber 7.
- the length of the piston is such that the stop ring limits its travel via the plate while the seal is still located in the guide chamber. There is therefore no contact between the combustion gases and the pulverulent solid.
- the chamber 7 is closed by a tight wall 11 of low mechanical resistance which must partially break first by the impact of the rod 10 and then completely by the impact of the plate 9.
- the cylinder 4 is kept in constant support on a receiving plate 14 using two tie rods 15 and a support and clamping plate 16.
- the plate 16 has a hole 17 receiving the means for initiating the pyrotechnic composition A.
- the plates 14 and 15 are advantageously provided with circular recesses in which the ends of the piston 4 are positioned.
- the plate 14 also has a circular orifice 18 whose diameter is at most equal to the diameter of the chamber 7.
- the orifice 18 is closed by a sealed wall 13 applied against the plate 14 by a fixing means 19; this last can be presented as shown in the figure by a plate.
- the expansion part 2 essentially consists of a tank 20 containing the liquid C into which the solid B must be introduced. It is arranged opposite the hole 18 bearing on the starting structure 3 in a vertical static use, as shown in the figure. Two tie rods 21 ensure sufficient space between the structure 3 and the plate 14 to allow the reception of the tank 20. In the case of another use, the tank 20 is closed by an adequate means and fixed on the structure 3 or by sealingly applying the plate 14 using the ti ⁇ rants 21.
- the operation is as follows: to ensure the mixture of the soldie B contained in the chamber 7 and the liquid C contained in the tank 20, the pyrotechnic composition A of the chamber 5 is initiated.
- the instantaneous release of gas produced causes the violent propulsion of the piston 8 whose rod 10 successively breaks the plates 11 and 13; then the plate 9 ensures the complete successive rupture of these plates by entraining the solid B and its projection into the liquid C.
- the solid B can be a talcum powder.
- a pyrotechnic substance for the implementation of the motor device allowing a violent dispersion of the solid in the fluid, after fracturing of the wall separating them, makes it possible to obtain a rapid, homogeneous and isotropic mixture. substances B and C.
- a glass tank allowing to visualize the dispersion
- a steel tank provided with several means of measuring the temperature, the pressure and to take samples.
- the total time of dispersion of the talc in 1.68 liters of "FLUXELF” is of the order of 430 ms.
- the pulverulent solid is projected along the axis of the piston 8 also, during the first milliseconds, the dispersion takes place preferably at the expense of the lateral zones.
- the radius of the dispersion cloud obtained is equal to 40 mm.
- the bottom of the tank plays the role of deflector and thus ensures good homogenization of the mixture.
- the part 2 consists of a reservoir 20 containing the liquid A and having a solid wall 23 mu ⁇ denied with an opening at the 'inside which is placed the tank 7 containing the solid B, so as to constitute a compact assembly.
- the seal between the cover 22 and the tank 24 is obtained thanks to the seal 25 and the seal between the tank 7 and the tank 20 by the seal 26.
- the fac ⁇ turation means is here constituted by a tubular sheath 27 soli- Daire in translation of a plate 28 placed inside the tank 7.
- the cover 22 carries a tube 29 screwed to an ex ⁇ end thereon. Inside this tube 29, is placed a powder-carrying tube 30 delimiting with the internal wall of the tube 29 the expansion chamber A.
- the tube 29 is open at one end and receives the support head 31 of the tube por ⁇ te powder 30.
- a nut 32 makes it possible to fix the head 31 to the cover 22.
- the seal between the sheath 27 and the tube 29 is produced by means of the O-ring 33.
- the tank 7 has a groove 34 to facilitate the rupture of its bottom.
- the operation is as follows. After initiation of the black powder contained in the tube 30, the combustion gases generate a pressure at the bottom of the sleeve 27, which causes the translation of the latter relative to the tube 29, the rupture of the bottom of the tank 7. Simultaneously, the plate 28 slides in the tank 7 driving the solid B into the enclosure 20. The bottom of the tank 7 detached and deformed sinks into the liquid C, creating turbulence therein facilitating the mixture, followed by the powdery solid pushed by the plate 28.
- This new concept of solid-liquid disperser based on a pyrotechnic option and on an original propulsion system allows to achieve a rapid dispersion of the solid in the fluid, compatible with the requirements of homogenization of the mixture of reaction speed and mechanical resistance, imposed.
