Abstract
A new and improved heat reactor system which when installed onto a pollution source provides elimination and/or complete combustion of harmful emissions generated there from. The system is of simple construction and may be formed from one integrally formed elongated high heat resistant tube that is internally partitioned into a combustion chamber and at least one reactor compartment which are separated by a novel flow conditioner having no moving parts.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A heat reactor system comprising in combination: an elongated tubular housing having an: inlet duct for receiving injected fuel and air and an outlet duct for expelling heated gases, said elongated tubular housing being partitioned internally by at least one flow conditioner, said flow conditioner being perpendicularly positioned along an axis of said elongated tubular housing thus forming at least a first combustion chamber and at least one reactor compartment having no moving parts, said flow conditioner comprising: an integrally formed circular disc having an outer edge; an inner edge; multiple angular vanes; multiple angular cross bars and a central stop means; said outer edge and said inner edge in combination forming a rim there between, said inner edge having equally spaced apart pairs of slits, each of said pairs of slits defining multiple central portions and multiple intermediate sections, said multiple central portions protruding outwardly from within each said pairs of slits, each one of said multiple intermediate sections being located on said inner edge in between each said pairs of slits, some of said multiple central portions being shaped to define said multiple angular vanes, some of said multiple central portions being shaped to define said multiple angular cross bars, said multiple angular cross bars being integrally formed with said central stop means, said multiple angular vanes directing airflow in a controlled angular manner outwardly into said reactor chamber in alignment with said axis, said multiple angular cross bars and said stop means in combination function to deflect, condition, and block gases from escaping from a central area of said flow conditioner,
whereby: when said fuel and air is injected into said first combustion chamber via said inlet duct, a primary turbulence zone is established wherein the mixture is ignited and combusted thus producing sufficient heat to cause said fuel to instantaneously combust and start to decompose back into its natural elements which in turn releases energy in the form of intense heat, thereafter once said mixture is converted into a gaseous flame having a helical motion, said mixture is forced into a spiral motion and then forced into said reactor compartment via said flow conditioner, said spiral motion provides increased dwell time for total combustion, thereafter said intense heat that is now free from harmful emissions including, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, odours, organic and inorganic particulates is expelled from within said elongated tubular housing via said outlet duct and can be used for energy purposes in an environmentally friendly manner.
2 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 wherein said elongated tubular housing is made from a high heat-resistant material capable of withstanding heat in excess of 2500 degrees Fahrenheit, including stainless steel, inconel, hasteloy or ceramic.
3 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 wherein said elongated tubular housing is coated such as by lamination with a high heat-resistant material capable of withstanding heat in excess of 2500 degrees Fahrenheit, including stainless steel, inconel, hasteloy or ceramic.
4 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 wherein said flow conditioner is made from a high heat-resistant material capable of withstanding heat in excess of 2500 degrees Fahrenheit, including stainless steel, inconel, hasteloy or ceramic.
5 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 wherein said flow conditioner is coated with a high heat-resistant material capable of withstanding heat in excess of 2500 degrees Fahrenheit, including stainless steel, inconel, hasteloy or ceramic.
6 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 further includes multiple reactor compartments that are separated by multiple flow conditioners.
7 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 wherein said outer edge further includes multiple locating tabs thereon of which protrude laterally outward there from, said multiple locating tabs allow said flow conditioner to be correctly orientated within said elongated tubular housing.
8 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 wherein said fuel is either in the form of aviation fuel, oil, propane, butane, natural gas, kerosene, gas, or alcohol.
9 . The heat reactor system of claim 1 wherein said multiple intermediate sections function as a dam for further increased directional air flow.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
