Abstract:
An apparatus for generating a mist is provided. The apparatus has at least one working fluid supply conduit having an inlet in fluid communication with a supply of working fluid and an outlet in fluid communication with a first mixing chamber. The apparatus also includes a plurality of transport fluid passages, each of which has an inlet adapted to receive a supply of transport fluid and an outlet in fluid communication with the mixing chamber. Downstream of the mixing chamber is a nozzle having an inlet in fluid communication with the mixing chamber, an outlet, and a throat portion intermediate the nozzle inlet and outlet. The throat portion of the nozzle has a cross sectional area which is less than that of either the nozzle inlet or the nozzle outlet. The apparatus enhances the atomization of the working fluid to generate the mist.
Abstract:
A sprayer which inhibits or prevents clogging from occurring in a nozzle when a liquid is ejected from the nozzle includes a nozzle having a first internal tube through which a first liquid passes, and a second internal tube through which a second liquid passes. An external tube is provided in which the first internal tube and the second internal tube are positioned so that the gas passes therebetween. In the sprayer, each distal end part of the first internal tube and the second internal tube includes a gas permeable film impermeable to each liquid, and permeable to the gas.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to glass-fiber-reinforced concrete compositions that may be sprayed, methods of preparing and applying such compositions, devices used in preparing and applying such compositions, and composite structural insulated panels that may be fabricated using such compositions, related methods of manufacture, and building systems employing such panels.
Abstract:
Using a simple structure, a new function is added to a liquid such as tap water by taking a gas into the liquid. The bubble-generating structure of the present invention includes (1) a water-discharging nozzle, which is provided inside a pipe, (2) a receiving member, which is situated a specified distance from the water-discharging nozzle and which includes a flow path for passing liquid emitted from the water-discharging nozzle, and (3) an air hole provided in such a way as to take air into a space between the water-discharging nozzle and the receiving member. By taking in air due to a suction force that is generated when the liquid passes along the flow path, bubbles are generated in the liquid. When such a structure for generating bubbles in the liquid is included in a showerhead, a person taking a shower using the showerhead can have a healthy and comfortable feeling while showering.
Abstract:
Spraying device for a deformable container, with a closing cap with a support to which a dip tube is fastened. The liquid coming from the dip tube upon squeezing the container is mixed with the air from the container and the mixture is led through an opening situated in the cap. The opening laterally connects to a bore which is open at one end for discharge of the mixture to the outside. An air duct ends in the bottom of the bore, situated opposite the open end, with the axis of the air duct running parallel to that of the bore. The air duct is connected to a space which is normally situated above the highest liquid level.
Abstract:
A nozzle for atomizing large volumes of liquid fuel with steam, air or other conventional fluids. Liquid fuel is introduced into the inner body wherein the atomizing medium is admixed through apertures to lower the density of the fuel and effect a spiraling flow through the inner body. The fuel leaves the inner body through a single exit having a flow area not smaller than onehalf the flow area of the main fuel supply conduit where an atomizing medium impinges onto and into the exiting stream to externally atomize the fuel and form a flow pattern that is essentially in the shape of a solid cone. This nozzle provides a solution to fouling problems normally encountered with both commercial grades of liquid fuels and combustible liquid process by-products. The nozzle has performed well with liquid fuels containing suspended solids up to one half inch in diameter and at rates up to 300 gph.
Abstract:
A nozzle for mixing a stream of pressurized viscous material, such as cold liquid asphalt, with pressurized air and thereby discharging the viscous liquid material in a fine spray for coating a surface such as the roof of a building.
Abstract:
Reactor vessel and a feed nozzle assembly for feeding a gas and a liquid into such reactor vessel. The feed nozzle assembly comprises an outer tube supplying a first liquid feed, such as oil, an inner tube supplying a dispersion gas, such as steam, a third tube supplying a second liquid feed, such as biomass, and a nozzle end. A catalytic cracking process wherein two or more hydrocarbon liquids are jointly dispersed into a dispersion gas and jetted via the same feed nozzle assembly into a catalytic cracking reactor.
Abstract:
The present invention involves providing a viscous fluid in a particular format and implementations thereof. In particular, a viscous slave fluid is provided in a particular format, wherein the particular format can be an end result or an intermediate result for the viscous fluid. In the case of an intermediate result, the viscous fluid in the second format may be further processed to a third format. Implementations or applications include supercharged fuel injection systems, methods, and apparatuses for internal combustion, lean-burn oil pre-mixing systems, methods, and apparatuses for liquid fuel combustion, and medical or biomedical devices, systems, and methods.
