ENTRAINMENT COMPRESSION SYSTEM FOR JET ENGINE
20220136435 · 2022-05-05 ·

A jet engine uses an entrainment compressor within a housing to compress intake air. The compressed air is routed to a combustion chamber where it is ignited. A portion of the exhaust is directed outward for thrust and a portion is rerouted through an energy feedback system to one or more entrainment nozzles within the compressor housing. The exhaust acts as motive fluid to mix with the intake air. The motive fluid imparts energy to create the compressive capability of the jet engine. A startup system is configured to generate startup motive fluid selectively routed through some or all of the entrainment nozzles to initiate a stable idle flow of motive fluid. Some of the entrainment nozzles may include combustion chambers to further enhance the compressive capability of the jet engine.

The present invention discloses a compressor comprising: an outer pipe being connected from an outside to pass through the vessel; an inner pipe being closely inserted into the outer pipe; a compression mechanism including a suction hole formed of a blind hole and a suction valve in the suction hole. The suction valve includes a seal on a side facing an opening of the suction hole to seal an entire end of the inner pipe on a side facing the suction valve when the compressor stops.

Pump having liquid blades and an associated method of pumping

A pump and method for pumping a gas are disclosed. The pump comprises a rotor and a stator. At least one of the rotor or stator comprises at least one liquid opening configured for fluid communication with a liquid source. The liquid opening is configured such that in response to a driving force exerted on liquid from the liquid source a stream of liquid is output from the opening, the stream of liquid forming a liquid blade between the rotor and the stator, gas confined by said stator, said rotor and said liquid blade being driven through said pump from a gas inlet towards a gas outlet.

Liquid-injected screw compressor

A liquid-injected screw compressor includes: a casing that houses a screw rotor and a bearing, and has a suction port and a suction chamber connected to the suction port; a suction throttle valve that is installed at the suction port, and has a housing; and an intake-gas bypass system that establishes communication between a primary side and a secondary side of the suction throttle valve. The intake-gas bypass system includes: an intake-gas bypass flow path that is provided in a wall section of the housing, and has a primary-side opening section opening into the primary side of the suction throttle valve, and a secondary-side opening section opening into the secondary side of the suction throttle valve; and a first check valve arranged in the intake-gas bypass flow path. The intake-gas bypass flow path has an external opening section that opens to an outside of the housing and that allows insertion and withdrawal of the first check valve. Thereby, it is possible to make the system that communicates with the suction chamber in the casing and is provided with the reverse-flow inhibition mechanism a pipeless structure without impairing advantages of external pipes.

Vane pump

A vane pump includes a housing, a rotor, a vane and a reed valve. A position at which the sliding direction of the vane with respect to the rotor is inverted from outward to inward is defined as a reference position, and a section of the pump chamber on the discharge hole side with respect to the reference position is defined as a discharge section. A pressure relief groove is disposed in a portion of the bottom wall portion corresponding to the discharge section with a clearance secured between the peripheral wall portion and the pressure relief groove. When the vane overlaps the pressure relief groove, a pair of the working chambers communicate with each other via the pressure relief groove.
