AUXILIARY HYDROJET DEVICE FOR UNDERWATER VEHICLES Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F03B13/14 B63H11/10 

FIELD: engines and pumps.

SUBSTANCE: invention makes it possible to use water energy for creation of motive force for longitudinal motion of vehicle, where device is installed, during vertical motion of vehicle in water. Auxiliary hydrojet device for underwater vehicles comprises at least two water conduits installed with the possibility of rotation symmetrically in vertical plane relative to longitudinal axis of underwater vehicle. Every water conduit is arranged in the form of nozzles that narrow along with flow direction with outlet openings and inlet water intake openings installed at the angle to longitudinal axis. Vertical walls of water conduit are formed with flat plates. Nozzles are arranged as located between vertical walls of water conduit with curvilinear walls that are horizontal in cross section of nozzles to form rectangular cross section of nozzles. Horizontal curvilinear walls of nozzles are made of plated with smoothly bent section, which is convex relative to longitudinal axis of underwater vehicle and is located near inlet water intake opening. Between smoothly bent sections of adjacent horizontal curvilinear walls at inlet to nozzles, there are plates installed as bent in longitudinal direction, concave relative to longitudinal axis of underwater vehicle and horizontal in cross section that guide the flow.

EFFECT: higher efficiency of water flow energy use, while underwater vehicle with hydrojet devices moves in it.
