Patent CA-2867328-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHUNG BERNARD C
IPC: E21B43/243
Filed: 2014-10-08
Abstract: A steam environmentally generated drainage system and method for producing hydrocarbons from a formation using in situ steam generation and gravity drainage. The system and method includes a first well as a circulation and production well, a second well as a circulation, injection and combustion well, and a third well as an injection well. The second well is configurable to have a fuel tubing, a gas tubing, and an igniter. The third tubing injects a vaporizable fluid into the formation so as to be vaporized by combustion gases created by the in situ combustion in the second well. Hydrocarbon fluids are produced from the first well and lifted to the surface for process. The third well can be configured to also produce combustion gases so as to control a gas chamber pressure of a gas chamber created by the rising combustion gases.

Patent CA-2870290-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RUBAK RUNE
IPC: F03D1/04
Filed: 2013-04-10
Abstract: The present disclosure relates to fluid turbines having a turbine shroud assembly formed with mixing elements (e.g., both inwardly and outwardly curving elements) having airfoil cross sections. These airfoils form ringed airfoil shapes that provide a means of controlling the flow of fluid over the rotor assembly or over portions of the rotor assembly. The fluid dynamic performance of the ringed airfoils directly affects the performance of the turbine rotor assembly. The mass and surface area of the shrouds result in load forces on support structures. By delaying or eliminating the separation of the boundary layer over the ringed airfoils, boundary layer energizing members (e.g., vortex generators, flow control ports) on the ringed airfoils increase the power output of the fluid turbine system and allow for relatively shorter chord- length airfoil cross sections and therefore reduced mass and surface area of the shroud assemblies.
