IPC: B01J13/04
Filed: 2015-05-28
Abstract: Il est décrit des systèmes et méthodes de production contrôlée de bulles de microcavitation dans un milieu ayant une phase liquide. Il est question de générer des impulsions laser ayant un paramètre dimpulsion qui dépend du temps et pouvant être contrôlés pendant leur durée. On procède ensuite à lirradiation du milieu au moyen des impulsions laser à une exposition énergétique suffisante pour commencer la microcavitation à lintérieur du milieu au cours de chaque pulsation laser. Le contrôle du paramètre de pulsation dépendant du temps de chaque pulsation laser se fait selon une variation essentiellement positive au cours de la durée de la pulsation, et ce, de sorte que le milieu absorbe une plus grande quantité dénergie provenant de la pulsation à une fin de la durée de cette dernière quau débit de cette durée. Des méthodes et systèmes comme ceux-ci peuvent servir dans divers domaines, comme la biologie, la médecine ou le traitement des matériaux.

Abstract: A wave energy electric power generation system has a buoyant body responsive to wave movement and an associated, relatively vertically stationary body, a compressor, a pressure regulator, and an air turbine/generator set. The compressor has a piston that moves reciprocally relative to a cylinder to alternately compress air in opposed chambers. A pressure regulator tank defines a chamber in communication with the compressor for alternately receiving compressed air from opposed compression chambers, a floating piston within the tank applying pressure to compressed air in the chamber, a pressure regulator controlling pressure applied by the piston to the compressed air, and an hydraulic dampening system coupled to the floating piston to restrict unwanted vertical oscillations of the piston, for output of a continuous flow of compressed air at relatively constant pressure. Rolling diaphragm and liquid trough sealing between opposed regions of contrasting pressure/vacuum are also described.
