DISPERSION SYSTEM, TREATMENT METHOD AND CHEMICAL REACTION APPARATUS
20220176329 · 2022-06-09 · ·

A microsphere cavity that forms a whispering gallery mode is used. By vibrationally coupling a whispering gallery mode being one of kinds of an optical mode to a vibrational mode of water or a liquid other than water, ultra strong coupling water or a liquid in a vibrational coupling state is generated. A first example is to acquire aerosol in which water itself or a liquid itself other than water constitutes a micro-water sphere cavity or a micro-liquid sphere cavity (50) and is a dispersoid. A second example is to acquire colloid or emulsion in which a micro-dielectric sphere cavity (53) is a dispersoid and water or a liquid other than water is a dispersion medium.

FLUIDIC OSCILATORS
20220168697 · 2022-06-02 ·

A fluidic oscillator includes at least one inlet port (57) in communication with at least two outlets (61) via a nozzle region and two outlet conduits (58, 62), the two outlet conduits being separated from each other by a splitter region. Each outlet conduit includes a resonance chamber (60) in fluid communication with the conduit. The resonance chambers contribute to controlling the oscillation of the device. The fluidic oscillator is operatable in an acoustic switching mode.

11167253 · 2021-11-09 ·

An apparatus configured to generate generating water having nano bubbles of molecular hydrogen on demand. The apparatus is connected to a water supply with a valve and has a pump which supplies pressurized water to a venturi gas liquid mixer that also receives a supply of Hydrogen gas. The mixed hydrogen gas/water steam is provided to a nano bubble generating apparatus that uses cavitation to generate nano bubbles of Hydrogen in the water. The Hydrogen nano bubbles have diameters of less than 200 nm and a concentration of up to 1.2 ppm. Further the concentration remains with 85% of the output concentration for at least 12 hours.

OPTIMIZING DRILLING MUD SHEARING
20230149869 · 2023-05-18 · ·

Viscosity and other properties are determined at desired temperatures in drilling mud and other fluids by using a versatile cavitation device which, operating in the cavitation mode, mixes and heats the fluid to a specified temperature, and, operating in the shear mode, acts as a spindle for application of Couette principles to determine viscosity as a function of shear stress and shear rate. The invention obviates the practice of adjusting rheology of a drilling fluid by passing it through the drill bit. Drilling fluid may be managed by a “straight-through” method to the well, or by placing the cavitation device in a loop which isolates an aliquot of known volume and circulating the fluid through the loop including the cavitation device. A controller may be programmed to manage the viscosity and other properties at various temperatures by controlling the power input and angular rotation of the “spindle” (which has cavities on its cylindrical surface), and feeding viscosity-adjusting agents and other additives to the fluid. Data may be collected from the loop and used in the “straight-through” mode until it is determined that conditions require a new set of data, or the loop may be used continuously. The system may be used with a supplemental viscometer, density meter, and other instruments.
