Abstract:
The object of the invention is an apparatus (50) for magnetic treatment of fluids, comprising a substantially cylindrical housing (6), having a bottom wall (61), a top wall (62), and a sidewall (60) running around the circumference of the bottom wall (61) and of the top wall (62) of the housing; at least one inlet opening (2, 3) and at least one outlet opening (4) formed in a wall of the housing (6); at least one magnet (8) connected to the housing (6), wherein the magnetic field of the magnet intrudes into the housing; wherein one or more inlet tubes (30) are connected to the one or more inlet openings (2, 3), wherein the inlet tubes are at least partially tangential at least in the proximity of the inlet opening. As a result of this configuration, the velocity vector of the fluid to be treated has a significant tangential component during most of its travel through the apparatus and thus the fluid crosses the magnetic field lines of the magnets having their magnetic axes oriented parallel with the centerline of the housing such that the angle formed between said field lines and said velocity vector is large.
Abstract:
A system and method in at least one embodiment for separating fluids including liquids and gases into subcomponents by passing the fluid through a vortex chamber into an expansion chamber and then through at least a portion of a waveform pattern present between at least two rotors and/or disks. In further embodiments, a system and method is offered for harnessing fields created by a system having rotating rotors and/or disks having waveform patterns on at least one side to produce current within a plurality of coils. In at least one embodiment, the waveform patterns include a plurality of hyperbolic waveforms axially aligned around a horizontal center of the system.
Abstract:
A magnetic screen assembly (13). The assembly (13) is to be located in a duct (10) to screen a flowable substance passing in a direction (11). The assembly (13) has a screening position (A) so that the substance passes through the screen, and a cleaning position (B) at which the screen assembly (13) is spaced outwardly relative to the housing (12) to facilitate cleaning of the assembly (13).
Abstract:
Methods and systems for detecting and/or collecting particles are disclosed. At least some of the particles are electrically charged by a charger (122). At least some of the charged particles are collected by a collector (140). Information indicating the number of the detected/collected particles based on measured electrical charges of the charged particles is obtained by a processor (170).
Abstract:
To provide a treatment method having excellent purification effect, in which impurities having high ionicity in a silica powder can be removed in a short time, an apparatus thereof, and a purified silica powder. A purification method of a silica powder comprises making a silica powder into a fluid state; contacting a purified gas to the silica powder in the fluid state at high temperature; and thereby removing impurity components of the silica powder. In the method, the silica powder in the fluid state is positioned in a magnetic field region. Further, the silica powder is contacted with the purified gas, while applying voltage to the silica powder by an electric field generated by moving of the silica powder. Preferably, the silica powder in a fluid state is positioned in the magnetic region of 10 gausses or more, and contacted with the purification gas at a temperature of I000° C. or more.
Abstract:
A method for separation of isotopes includes vaporizing a sample having two or more isotopes of the same element. A stream of atoms is generated from the vaporized sample. One or more light waves are applied to the stream. The one or more light waves are tuned to convert one or more specific isotopes in the flowing stream to a set of one or more magnetic states. A magnetic field is applied to the stream, deflecting atoms in the stream based on their magnetic states. Isotopes are collected based on their deflections (or lack of deflection).
