HYDROJET UNIT Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC F03B13/14 B63B39/08 

FIELD: power industry.

SUBSTANCE: hydrojet unit contains water conduit as system of channels with input water intake holes, vertical side walls and horizontal curved walls in channels cross-section. Water conduit is divided into two or more cascades and in each cascade there are systems getting narrower along flow direction of channels. Each further cascade has bigger height. Side walls of each conduit cascade are made with front and rear edges bevelled along the flow direction. Each conduit cascade has upper and lower outside channels, at least one upper inner channel, one lower inner channel and one central channel. At each side wall of cascades there vertical chambers formed by concave plates along rear edge of vertical side walls.

EFFECT: invention allows improvement of hydrojet unit efficiency at conversion of roll and pitch energy of a ship into hydraulic-jet energy.
