CENTRIFUGAL STEAM AND GAS HYDRAULIC MACHINE Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC F04C2/00 

FIELD: engines and pumps.

SUBSTANCE: machine incorporates a tight housing with inlet and outlet holes and shut-off dampers. The said housing is partially filled with liquid and accommodates an impeller to run therein with a gap relative to the said shut-off dampers made in the casing body. The machine is provided with a distribution manifold arranged in the housing on the impeller central part side. Shut-off dampers and the said manifold separate the housing into three parts. The first part communicates, via distribution manifold and rotor channels, with the inlet line along the rotor rotation, while, via the opening provided on the housing periphery, connecting pipeline and distribution manifold, with the rotor channels inlets furnished in the following, along the rotor rotation, housing space provided with outlet opening with outlet line. The third housing space, located along the impeller rotation, communicates, via the casing periphery opening and distribution manifold, with a circulation pipeline incorporating heat exchangers with the rotor channels inlets, the rotor channels outlets entering the same third space.

EFFECT: higher specific output of centrifugal machine and wider applications.
