Abstract

This invention is a spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids which represents the rotating part of the machine that can operate as a pump, compressor or turbine for all types of fluid. The spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids has a body (1) with an inlet (2) for the flow of fluids that continues in a spirally enclosed tube (3), and ends on the rim (4) of the body (1) with the fluid outlet. With an additional combustion chamber (5), fuel supply system (6) with ignition and an electric starter generator (7), the spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids becomes a centrifugal jet engine for liquids or gases.

Description

HELICAL NON-BLADED ROTOR AND ENGINE COMPRISING SUCH A ROTOR
This invention, based on a snail shell, is a spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids used in a rotor compressor, propeller, ventilator or turbine for all types of fluid which, with additional structural units such as a combustion chamber with a fuel pipe, ignition device and a drive motor with generator, can become a centrifugal jet engine. The innovation belongs to international patent classification class B 63H 11/00. The technical problem for which the submitted invention provides a successful solution is the construction design of this type of machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids that permits operation by substituting the laws of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics governing blades in turbines, propellers, ventilators and compressors with the aerodynamics of fluid in a pipe. This system is much simpler at all speeds and can operate at high temperatures. As the spiral component of the machine for gaseous and/or liquid fluids according to this invention can operate as a rotor turbine or compressor, by adding a combustion chamber with a fuel pipe, ignition and starter, the function of a compressor and turbine can be combined, thus obtaining a centrifugal jet engine. In familiar solutions to this particular technical problem blades are used in turbines, propellers, compressors and ventilators (axial or centrifugal). Blade aerodynamics and hydrodynamics are limited to a narrow band of fluid speed for a still acceptable laminary flow and efficiency. Furthermore, blades do not withstand high temperatures and therefore limit the temperature of combustion in gas turbine engines. Consequently, to achieve acceptable operating efficiency these machines require a large number of individual parts and components and become too large and complex mechanically. The spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids in this invention removes the deficiencies of familiar solutions by working on the principle of the most simple fluid dynamic in a tube (funnel, duct, conduit, channel, siphon) and is a single construction element that can be used as a rotor for a ventilator, propeller or turbine or become a centrifugal jet engine with just one rotating part with the above mentioned auxiliary parts. As there are no turbine blades and consequentially no temperature limits in combustion, efficiency can be very high indeed. This invention will be explained in more detail using an actual example and figures as follows: Figure 1a Spiral component of the machine for gaseous and/or liquid fluids with a single tube cross-section; Figure 1 b Spiral component of the machine for gaseous and/or liquid fluids with a single tube from above; Figure 2 Cross-section of centrifugal jet engine with spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids with a single tube. The spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids is shown in Figures 1 and 2. The component block or body (1 ) has one or more coaxial inlets (2) that continue to one or more spiral tubes (3) of arbitrary length, which end at the outlet ring (4) on the rim (surface) of the body (1 ). When the body (1) is rotated, the centrifugal acceleration of the fluid is drawn into the inlet (2) through the enclosed spiral tube (3) towards the outlet (4) on the rim of the body (1 ). In this case the spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids acts like a propeller, pump, ventilator or compressor. When a fluid flows into the inlet (2) at a certain speed, the spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids acts like a liquid or gas turbine because the fluid emits energy while passing through the spirally enclosed pipe (3) of the body (1 ). With an added combustion chamber (5) and fuel supply system (6) with ignition and an electric starter generator the spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids becomes a centrifugal jet engine in which a part of the spiral tube (3) of required length before the combustion chamber becomes a ventilator, and the other part of the spiral tube (3) after the combustion chamber a gas turbine. Full combustion is enabled at high temperatures and with high efficiency due to the flow of air with no blades. The benefits of the spiral machine component for gaseous and/or liquid fluids according to this invention are revealed primarily in the small number of parts, the possibility of operating with a broad range of fluid speeds, and with an added combustion chamber the possibility of combustion at high temperatures. It can also be used as a centrifugal jet engine for liquid or gaseous media if a substance that starts an exothermic reaction with the input medium is injected into the combustion chamber.
