Pumps have been around for over 2000 years. There are many
kinds of pumps such as piston, centrifugal, rotary, vane,
gear, and screw. Likewise there are many different types of
turbines. The one thing they have in common is that they
have voids that collect liquids or gases and transport them
from an input to an output. If all the voids are filled each
time and all are transported to the output then it can be
said that they have 100% volumetric efficiency. To do this
they must be positive displacement, which most pumps are
not. The Green Pump/Turbine (TGP) is unlike any pump or
turbine, but there are certain commonalities.
TGP
has a drive shaft.
TGP
transports liquids or gases from an input to an output.
TGP
has positive displacement but there the comparisons end.
TGP
can have three or more transport mechanisms, each with its
own shaft. It can have multiple inputs and outputs. It has
well over 100% volumetric efficiency. With three or more
rotors the center rotors can be made to perform multiple
operations in each 360 degree cycle. The outer rotors can be
100% efficient while the rotors between can perform two or
more operations per rotor segment for each 360 degree
rotation. This requires two or more inputs and outputs.
There is one other aspect of the design that sets it apart
from all others: The rotor segments touch and then roll, one
against the other to produce a seal with very little wear
and vastly reduced friction. There are tip seals which vary
their pressure with the amount of pressure required to
perform the sealing operation. These seals also can
compensate for wear, so long life with good sealing action
is assured. The volume output per volume of the pump is
greater than all other positive displacement pumps.
THE VIDEO OF OUR PATENT PENDING ROTORY PUMP
In the above video we filmed a small
version of TGP. The rotors are 4.8 inches in diameter, 2.94
inches deep and displace 115+ inches cubed per revolution.
Note that 1000ml is equal to 61.0237 cubic inches. This is
why it took 2 beakers of about 1000ml to show the 115 cubic
inches were displaced in one 360 degree cycle. Note some oil
was left in each input port vessel. Each
of the acrylic vessels are 6 inches high, 6 inches in
diameter and 5 ½ in inside diameter each.Volumetric efficiency requires
two parts to be known, one is the output and the other the
volume of all the voids in the turbine. The voids are filled
with the first beaker of 1100ml as 67 inches cubed. If we
could show more resolution in the video you could see the
oil filled the voids and no bubbles were left. Note I had to
rotate the rotors to expel the bubbles. The amount
transported was 2.125 inches in each of the two output port
vessels. The surface are of the vessel is 23.76 inches
squared x 2.125 = 50.5 x two vessels = 101 inches cubed. The
output also filled the two output ports with a combined
volume of 3.75 inches cubed for a total of 101 + 3.77 =
104.75. The volumetric efficiency would be 104.75/67 =
156.34%. Anything over 100% would be considered impossible
until benefits of 3 or more rotors are factored in.
