INDUCTION STEAM GENERATOR Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F22B1/28 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: induction steam generator comprises an induction heater, which covers a cylindrical container of dielectric material, communicating with a source of heated coolant and the pipeline of consumed steam, the cylindrical container is filled with metal balls, the pole of balls is fixed at the top and the bottom with the locking grids. Switching on of the induction generator leads to emergence of an alternating electromagnetic field in an induction heater that heats the pole of metal balls with the eddy currents. During the water supply on the coolant source, it fills the space between the balls and is heated by them in the process of heat exchanging. Moving up the pole of the balls, the water boils and forms the steam-water mixture. Drops of water due to inertial forces of curvilinear motion on the channels between the balls get to the surface of the balls and continue to evaporate, and the steam along the channels continues to move upwards heated in the process of heat exchanging with the metal balls.

EFFECT: increase in the steam generation of the steam generator, while ensuring at the output of dry or superheated steam.
