Title: Ready hydel power system
Inventor: MOHAMED IBRAHIM P V
IPC: E02B9/00
Filed: 2007-02-02
Abstract: The Hali-mark of the invention Rinue Power System is the less consumption of water with minimum cost. The principle behind the Rinue Power System is very simple by which Electricity can be generated by installing pipe having particular measurements from a place having higher altitude from Sea Leavel to a place having lower altitude from sea leavel and water has to be pumped though this pipe and the generators will have to be installed at every 10 mtr distance. By this system the water needed to rotate one generator, we can operate fifty generators at 1500 rpm and can generate 100 units electricity in one hour. When the height of the place where the pipe has been installed increases, the distance of slope,, will also be increased. When the distance of slope increases, die number of generators to be connected will also be increased. This in turn, accelerates the production unit of electricity. When electricity production increases the partition of water molecules increase, thus the water needed to produce one unit of electricity will be very much reduced.

Filed: 1956-04-04
Abstract: An evaporator comprises a closed vessel divided by partition-walls into a number of separate compartments some of which serve as heaters 50 while the others serve as flash chambers 48; each flash chamber has a wall <PICT:0815796/III/1> common with a heater and vapour passes from the flash chamber into the heater via an opening 52 in the common wall.  The apparatus also comprises an external heater (not shown), such as a live steam heater; and the liquid which has passed in series through the heaters 50 is further heated in the external heater to a temperature sufficiently high that vaporization takes place when the hot liquid is subsequently introduced into the flash chambers. The hot liquid flows in series through the flash chambers via openings 54 in the lower parts of walls 46.  The apparatus, which eliminates numerous pipe connections, may be used for obtaining distilled water from impure water or sea water.  The heaters 50 are each provided with tubes (not shown) through which the brine is pumped, while the steam from the flash chambers condenses on the outsides of the tubes.  The brine is then passed through the live steam heater, and introduced into the first flash chamber. The distillate, i.e. distilled water, which collects in heaters 50, is cascaded to the coolest heater through openings 56. Apertures 58 and 60 are provided in the partition walls, in order to provide for venting of the evaporator.  When the evaporator is operated at subatmospheric pressure, the partition walls serve to brace the outer walls of the vessel.
