ROTOR APPARATUS FOR GENERATION OF ACOUSTIC OSCILLATIONS WITHIN FLOWING LIQUID Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC B06B1/20 

FIELD: mechanics.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to devices for generation of acoustic oscillations in flowing liquid and may be used for performance and intensification of different physicochemical, hydromechanical and heat-and-mass transfer processes within a "liquid-liquid" system. The rotor apparatus for generation of acoustic oscillations in flowing liquid contains a housing with nipples for medium inlet and outlet, a rotor and a stator with channels in the cylinder side walls mounted concentric inside the housing, a cover, a sonic treatment chamber, a drive. A headpiece with axial channels in mounted on the inlet nipple so that to enable its reciprocal motion. The rotor butt-end surface on the side of inlet of the medium being treated forms an axial clearance with the headpiece butt-end surface, the clearance value defined by the expression Z=ξ(ν/ω)^0.5 , where ξ=1.976 is relative axial clearance; ω - angular rate of rotation of the rotor, 1/s; ν - kinematical viscosity of the medium, m²/s.

EFFECT: reduction of energy expenditures related to performance of physicochemical, hydromechanical and heat-and-mass transfer processes as well as their efficiency improvement.
