DECOMPRESSION MACHINE (SUDARSHAN CHAKRA) SU [good], DARHAN [looking;appearance] CHAKRA [wheel]

A decompression machine to be called SUDARSHAN CHAKRA is a better efficiency of energy conversion method than prior arts i.e. turbine, internal combustion engine & steam engine. Gas or liquid containing intermolecular forces from anywhere is harnessed & released intra-corporally & sequentially to get discharged tangentially from the blades which absorb the momentum of the propellant by pressure drops &/or velocity rises, in order to produce torque force resulting into rotations of axle, which can drive any other machine for production or transfer of energy. This is an action& reaction turbine. Here the idea is to produce circular motion from natural linear motion of the propellants like wind, gas, steam, water, hydrocarbon Etc.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION OF PRIOR ART

This machine is for use in energy sector where different types of conversion machines; to convert potential &/or kinetic energy into kinetic energy of a rotating wheel; using well known techniques' of steam engine, internal combustion engine & turbine arrangements are already existing.

Attempts of using compressed air to run different vehicles appear frequently in news articles. The main hurdle to its market success is the need of a large size of compressed air tank which is mainly due to poorer efficiency of these conversion machines. These well known prior arts conversion machines namely steam engine, internal combustion engine, turbines & jet engine use compressed steam, gas, water & burnt hydro carbon-gas mixtures; to be called propellant; as source of potential energy, which is allowed to strike on the outer surface of turbine blades or piston; to be called receptor; of piston-crank-shaft assembly. These receptors are solid objects & not hollow like SUDARSHAN CHAKRA.

I have no information about any published article or any machine in public, private or commercial use as well as any invention in progress, which utilizes hollow radial or tangential blades attached upon a hollow mini-axle or mega-axle to absorb momentum from the energy stored in the propellant flowing through its internal space to generate kinetic energy of a rotating wheel as a circular motion from a linear motion.

The energy production & transfer is so far done by transferring intermolecular forces stored in gas or liquid (propellant) to a wheel enabled to rotate by direct colliding action of the molecules of the propellant either upon the outer side of the blades of the turbine or upon a reciprocally movable piston-crank assembly inside the cylinder. None of the wheels are enabled to rotate in response to active & reactive forces acting upon the inner side of the blades by intra-corporal flow of intermolecular forces of propellant. The invention set forth here has a novel feature. It is an action & reaction turbine with an intra-corporal flow of the propellant. In all of these methods molecules propel the blades in direction of their own flow, hence may be said to be unidirectional synchronous motion. The intermolecular motions strike for a very brief period of time & some of the molecules may even fail to strike the blades; hence their energy goes in vain in these prior arts. So their output is considerably small as compared to input. In the invention set forth it is seen that rotations of the rotor takes place in the direction opposite to the direction of the flow of the stream; so this is a sum total of the action & reaction forces & may be called a counter directional synchronous motion.

Here the flow comes from back or front side of the blades & strike upon the inner side of the bottom wall; to be called receptor; of the succeeding Tunnel, after taking a U turn to deliver an action of the propellant from its nozzle like tip to be called inducer. Therefore the invention set forth tries to address the issue with novelty as well as efficiency.

This is an action & reaction turbine. The machine gradually allows these forces to get discharged & very large surface area is provided for the action of flow to exert their forces, so the molecules strike more frequently to the blades. Hence more impact of the intermolecular forces are exerted upon the assembly than the prior art therefore more action-reaction response can be generated in the form of output. The pressure & velocity drops can be planned & staged in different Tunnels as the end application needs. In short the energy extracted from the set forth invention would be larger than the prior arts from any given input.

OBJECTS

This will also help to overcome the inertia of the assembly at the beginning of the rotations.
    • [2] It is an object of the present invention to maximize the sum total of the action & reaction forces flowing through the assembly & extract energy with high efficiency, from the energy of the stream with uniform changes of the ordered directions of the Tunnels at different places called Nodes on the blades.

The parts of Tunnel 1, 2, 3 . . . may be formed like converging or non converging nozzle to generate pressure &/or velocity drops whatever is desirable.
    • [5] It is an object of the present invention is extract as much energy as possible by gradual discharge with minimal pressure & velocity of the flow from the outlets by keeping converging nozzle like Tunnels with frequently bending at Nodes having constricted & enlarged diameters of Tunnels to absorb maximum momentum from molecules.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF STRUCTURES OF SUDARSHAN CHAKRA

Assembling stationary parts with junction parts & mobile parts makes a full Sudarshan chakra. Assembling a cavernous mini-axle (2A) with numerous blades (3), two ball bearings, two safety valves (8) & a pulley or gear (6) forms the main central mobile part of the assembly. Then these mobile parts are fixed with in the grip of stationary parts namely a Feeder pipe (7) at mouth bearing and a cylindrical Case (1) & a stand.

The cavernous elongated hollow pipe of any cross sectional shape having an open mouth flange which is to be attached to the outer diameter of mouth bearing; a hollow body with numerous perforations for attachments of blades (3) and a closed tail end with flange for attachment of the inner diameter of tail bearing; may be called mini-axle (2A). This mini-axle (2A) may or may not be supported by mega-axle (2B) if need demands. Two safety valves (8) preferably near the tail are provided to vent out extra pressure. A pulley or a gear (6) is fixed on the outer surface of the mini-axle (2A) preferably midway between the mouth & tail. The blind end of the cavernous mini-axle (2A) may be enlarged like a pouch to create reserve supply if needed or may be attached to another Feeder pipe (7).

The blades (3) are hollow bow shaped structure having any cross sectional & longitudinal sectional shapes like round, oval, elliptical, triangular, square, rectangular or polygonal. This variable part is attached to a hollow mini-axle (2A) or mega-axle (2B) with angular orientation. The larger opening of the blade (3) near mini-axle (2A) is called inlet. The smaller opening near the Case (1) is called outlet. The hollow space inside the blade (3) is called tunnel, which is subdivided into Tunnel-0, Tunnel-1 and Tunnel-2 . . . . The blades (3) bend clockwise, anticlockwise spirally up or down as one proceeds from inlet to outlet. There are sudden modifications in the course of tunnel called node (3a) at the junction of Tunnel-0-1-2-3 . . . . The aim of keeping nodes (3a) is to bring about pressure & velocity drops to transfer momentum as well as to carry forward the conserved momentum for next momentums' transfers.

All the nodes (3a) upon each blade (3), which are most proximal to axle& axis may be grouped and named as node-A. The next distal group of nodes (3a) upon all the blades (3) may be called Node-B. The next distal group of nodes (3a) upon all the blades (3) may be called Node-C etc so on & so forth . . . . Similarly the parts of the tunnels (3b) of all the blades (3) may be grouped as Tunnel-0 between axis and Node-A, Tunnel-1 between Nodes (3a)-A & Node-B, Tunnel-2 between Node-B & Node-C, so on & so forth . . . .

The blades (3) of Sudarshan chakra can be regrouped into numerous modules according to their plane of attachment to the mini-axle (2A) or Mega-axle (2B). The group of blades (3) attached to the mini-axle (2A) or mega-axle (2B); in one cross sectional plane may be defined as a module. These modules may be named as Module-1, Module-2, and Module-3, so on & so forth Each module may contain a variable number of blades (3), but they are identically oriented & balanced upon the mini-axle (2A) or Mega-axle (2B). The member blades (3) of each module spread out uniformly either in the same plane or traverse across neighboring planes to orient spirally up or down. Hence the relationship between axis & any given part of a blade (3) is identical with the corresponding part of any other blade (3).

In other words the blades (3) are designed in such a way that Node-A of each blade (3) is oriented at the circumference of an imaginary cylindrical wall around the axis and Tunnel-1 of each blade (3) is as tangential as possible to that imaginary cylindrical wall having imaginary radius joining Node-A to & axis. Similarly Node-B of each blade (3) is oriented at the circumference of another larger imaginary cylindrical wall around axis; and Tunnel-2 as tangential as possible to that imaginary cylindrical wall, upon an imaginary line as a radius joining Node-B to the axis. Again Node-C of each blade (3) is oriented at one larger circumference of an imaginary cylindrical surface & Tunnel-3 as tangential as possible to that surface upon an imaginary radius joining Node-C & axis . . . so on & so forth . . . .

The hollow space within the blades (3) called tunnel is further subdivided into different parts as follows. The part of tunnel most proximal to axis from inlet to Node-A may be called Tunnel-0, which can be in radial to tangential orienting direction of the mini-axle (2A) or the mega-axle (2B). The next distal group sections of tunnel from Node-A to Node-B may be called Tunnel-1 which is tangential to imaginary radius joining the axis to Node-A. The next distal group of sections of tunnels (3b) from Node-B to Node-C may be called Tunnel-2 which is tangential upon an imaginary radius joining Node-B to the axis of the axle. Similarly the next distal group of sections of tunnels (3b) from Node-C to Node-D may be called Tunnel-3 which is tangential upon an imaginary radius joining Node-C to the axis. So on & so forth . . . . Hence all the sections of tunnel namely Tunnel-0, Tunnel-1, Tunnel-2, Tunnel-3 etc., so on & so forth . . . are all outside the mini-axle (2A) and radial to tangential in direction. The tunnels (3b)′ diameter may be constricted & enlarged at the nodes (3a) depending on the need. The inner shape of the tunnels (3b) may or may not be made like converging, non-converging or diverging nozzle to effect pressure &/or velocity drops & absorb the momentum of molecules from propellant. The objective of providing numerous Nodes (3a) like A, B, C . . . so on & so forth & Tunnels 1, 2, 3 . . . so on & so forth, is to absorb as much momentum as possible within the blades (3), so that the loss of energy at the outlets (3c) is minimal.

For practicality of operation one more axle which may be called Mega-axle (2B) can be planned & applied for better stability. This new layer to be called Mega-axle (2B) is interposed between mini-axle (2A) & the blades (3), so that the mini-axle (2A) & Mega-axle (2B) needs to be attached with each other by a leak proof ring gasket. The blades (3) are attached to Mega-axle (2B) instead of mini-axle (2A). Hence a cavernous mini-axle (2A) opens into Mega-axle (2B) & Mega-axle (2B) opens into Tunnel-0 of the blades (3). The cross section of the blades (3) may be kept circular, oval, elliptical, triangular, square, rectangular or polygonal, as the end application needs. Practically Tunnel-0 can be attached at any angle from radius to tangent to the Mega-axle (2B) Tunnel-1, 2, 3, 4 - - - may be attached to Mega-axle (2B) by Pillars for better stability.

In the given example of drawing no. 2, 3, 4 there are three blades (3) in one module. Each blade (3) has Tunnel 0, 1, 2, 3, Tunnel-0 begins at inlet & ends at Node-A. the most proximal part having wedge shaped hollow body with broad base of the bottom wall called receptor & a tapering tip; to be called inducer (3e); taking U turn inwards or outwards to open opposite to bottom (receptor) of the succeeding Tunnel called Tunnel-1. The planes of the broad base bottom walls (receptors (30) are oriented in such a way that they are parallel to the radial plane of the mini-axle (2A)& mega-axle (2B). Similarly Tunnel-1 is also a wedge shaped hollow structure with broad base bottom wall (receptor) & tapering tip (inducer (3e)) taking U turn to open in front of the bottom wall (receptor) of the succeeding tunnel segment called Tunnel-2.for practical use the sidewalls of Tunnel 0, 1, 2, 3 . . . can be interlinked & joined to the pillar erected upon axle in radial direction for the sake of stability. The purpose of such design is to absorb as much momentum as is possible from the propellant flowing through the tunnels (3b).Parts of all the Tunnels (3b) except Tunnel-0; near their broad bottom wall to be called receptor; act as segments of the propelling blade (3) of the turbine. At the tip they act as a nozzle (inducer (3e)) to shower high velocity stream upon the bottom wall to be called receptor of the succeeding Tunnel Hence unused momentum is carried forward for further momentum transfer during the subsequent course. So the tunnels act as receptor as well as inductor two in one.

The virtual mean momentum transfer plane can shrink & enlarge according to the load & feed quality to provide differential efficiencies as per the end application needs.

In the given drawing no:4,5 the cross section of the Tunnel is kept rectangular & longitudinal section of the Tunnel is kept triangular with its tip (inductor) taking a U turn before it opens opposite to the broad bottom wall (receptor) of the succeeding Tunnel Thus the entire tunnel of the blade (3) converges as it approaches the Node & diverges as soon as it crosses the Node.

The Case (1) is a realistic cylindrical wall with corrugated inner lining on surface which is just opposite but clearly away from the outlets (3c) of all the blades (3). The Case (1) engulfs the assembly like a sleeve cover with its axis merging with the axis of the mini-axle (2A) Due to closed tail end it is necessary to provide safety valve (8) near the tail end to vent out undesired rise in the intra corporal pressure of the mini-axle (2A) to prevent blow up of the assembly.

The Feeder pipe (7) is attached to the inner diameter of the mouth bearing to feed gas or liquid stream into the mini-axle (2A).

For variation one can keep Tunnel semi flexible as shown in FIGS. 6, 7, and 8 Thus the inner diameter of mouth bearing with Feeder pipe (7) the outer diameter of tail bearing and the Case (1) are stationary parts attached to the frame; whereas there moving parts namely the outer diameter of mouth bearing, entire cavernous mini-axle (2A), mega-axle (2B), blades (3), safety valve (8), a pulley or gear and the inner diameter of the tail bearing are free to rotate within the grip of stationary parts, around imaginary axis joining centers of mouth and tail bearing. The balls inside the mouth & tail bearings facilitate these movements

OPERATION OF INVENTIONS

When hose from supply tank is connected to the Feeder pipe (7) of the assembly in a leak proof manner & gas or liquid is allowed to flow with force into the axle, it will rotate along with its attachments with in the grip of stationary parts & the rotating pulley or gear will transfer its torque to the machine desired to be driven by Sudarshan chakra.

The molecules of gas or liquid are in constant motion. When their streams are allowed to flow with additional accelerating forces like compression, heat, velocity or gravity; their motions become extremely powerful carrying energy of accelerating forces with in their flow.

When stream of gas or liquid flows through the cavernous axle, it splits up into smaller streams passing through numerous bent blades (3) uniformly in predetermined course to exit from the outlets (3c). The molecules experience a lot of friction due to a large surface area& constrictions within the assembly & there are numerous drops of pressure & rises in velocity in different parts. The action of force generates momentum which is absorbed by different parts of the blades (3) & collectively produces action-reaction in the form of rotations of the assembly in the direction opposite to that of the stream.

Hence the flow through constrictions to be called inducer (3e) at the nodes (3a) from the pool of molecules under the pressure generates action & reaction in the opposite directions using Newton's third law of motion to provide useful rotations of the axle & gear in the desired direction.

It is also evident from the performance that synergy of the action forces reaction forces also exist in the given machine. As per Newton's first law of motion the body at rest or in velocity or remains in status co unless force is provided.

Here the direction & hence velocity of molecules is changed tangentially so force & its reaction are generated. Direct impact of high velocity molecules in the stream of the flow colliding upon the inner side of the bottom wall to be called receptor; which is directed with radial orientation to the mini-axle (2A) & mega-axle (2B) uses Newton's first law of motion.

According to Newton's third law of motion, the action and reaction of a given force are equal & opposite. Here action is exerted by the stream & reaction is expressed in the rotation of axle in the opposite direction. The corrugated inner wall of the Case (1) helps to exert final reactive push to the assembly while the stream exits from the outlet. These rotations will continue till the flow of the stream is stopped.

The nodes (3a) act as a strainer allowing the flow with rise in velocity & fall in pressure. Inducer (3e) acts as a nozzle & receptor acts as a blade (3) segment.

High pressure gas or liquid strained through different parts of the blades (3) leads to momentum transfer from gas or liquid to the blades (3) to generate rotations & torque of the axle for useful work.

In other words the axle will rotate in the direction opposite to that of the stream, in order to relieve the pressure inside it by facilitating rotations to evacuate gas or liquid as fast as possible. Hence the output of this machine would be larger than that of the prior arts from any given input due to many factors integrated in the invention.

The performance or output of SUDARSHAN CHAKRA will be directly proportional to diameters of inlets (3d), numbers of nodes (3a) and distance between axis to nodes, total inner surface area of blades (3), pressure drops & velocity rises. It will be inversely proportional to the distance between inducer (3e) & receptor, diameters of outlets (3c), intra corporal volume of axle & distance between outlets (3c) to inner wall of the Case (1).

RAMIFICATION

For simplicity of understanding the axle is given names like tail end & mouth end by keeping feeder pipe only at one end of the axle. But if end application needs one can keep feeder pipe at both the ends of the axle.

For simplicity of understanding the mouth bearing is kept inside the axle & tail bearing is kept on the outer side of the axle. But if the end application needs the mouth bearing & tail bearing can be kept in any permutation & combination order of their position upon the axle.

The longitudinal section of the Tunnel may be kept gradually converging & diverging or gradually converging & abruptly diverging as the end application needs.

The Tunnels 1, 2, 3 . . . so on & so forth may be individually shaped as a converging, or converging & diverging, or non converging nozzle to bring about required pressure &/or velocity drops to minimize the lost energy from the outlets.

There are many different ways in which the blades can be redesigned in order to absorb as much enthalpy as possible within the blades so the minimum is left over in the discharge. Following are few examples.

  • [A]Here the blade instead of deviating at a sharp angle bends continuously as a smooth arc in the same plane or as a spiral arc across different planes.
  • [B]Here Tunnel-0 is tangential to the mini-axle or mega-axle. The tip of the Tunnel takes U turn before it opens perpendicular to broad bottom wall to be called receptor of the succeeding Tunnel, so that the bottom wall i.e. receptor is radial to the mini-axle or mega-axle.

There are endless numbers of end applications of SUDARSHAN CHAKRA for example a hybrid two, three, four . . . . Wheelers used for locomotion. It can be used as a mobile battery charger on board. It can be used as self priming electric generator so on & so forth. Its use should not be limited to conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy, but can also be used for conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy.

In the given example the tunnel is assumed to be made up of a rigid material. But one can plan for a Tunnels made up of partly rigid & partly flexible material. In that case one can orient the blade either tangential, radial or in combination of both. One drawing no 8 exhibits such unique blade with only one example of tunnel-0 & tunnel-1; but it can be extrapolated further. Such arrangement would result in an action turbine having synchronous unidirectional motion

The documents submitted here are the substitute specifications of original specifications and does not contain any new matter.
