Particle separation and concentration system

This invention is based on size and mass separation of suspended particles, including biological matter, which are made to flow in a spiral channel. On the spiral sections, the inward directed transverse pressure field from fluid shear competes with the outward directed centrifugal force to allow for separation of particles. At high velocity, centrifugal force dominates and particles move outward. At low velocities, transverse pressure dominates and the particles move inward. The magnitudes of the two opposing forces depend on flow velocity, particle size, radius of curvature of the spiral section, channel dimensions, and viscosity of the fluid. At the end of the spiral channel, a parallel array of outlets collects separated particles. For any particle size, the required channel dimension is determined by estimating the transit time to reach the side-wall. This time is a function of flow velocity, channel width, viscosity, and radius of curvature. Larger particles may reach the channel wall earlier than the smaller particles which need more time to reach the side wall. Thus a spiral channel may be envisioned by placing multiple outlets along the channel. This technique is inherently scalable over a large size range from sub-millimeter down to 1 μm.

Relating to air-breathing flight vehicles

An air intake for a supersonic air-breathing flight vehicle introduces or injects fluid in order to create predetermined regions of separated flow and an attendant fluid shear layer. This shear layer forms an aerodynamic boundary for the capture flow with a profile determined and optimised by appropriate injection of fluid. The aerodynamic boundary so generated replaces mechanically moveable solid surfaces used to vary the geometry of prior-art intakes. Use of an introduced or injected fluid can provide an advantage of a variable geometry, but with reduced weight and reduced mechanical complexity. In some embodiments, the injection of fluid has the effect of re-energising any ingested boundary layer, thus obviating the conventional requirement for a bleed system to provide boundary layer control.

Hydrocarbon production system and method of use

The method of the present invention employs a subsurface production pump to displace hydrocarbon fluid, including any and all accompanying ground water and / or earthen contaminants, from the subterranean hydrocarbon reservoir depth of an oil well to surface storage and handling facilities via the subsurface production tubing, wellhead and surface flow line. As the subsurface production pump operates, compressed gas, or a mixture of compressed gases of sufficient volume and force is fed into the lower end of the subsurface production tubing in proximity to, or at a point above the subsurface production pump to mix into the hydrocarbon production fluid column. The resultant and considerably reduced density of the subsurface hydrocarbon production fluid column provides a reduction of subsurface production pump loading with all types of subsurface production pumps, and an improvement of sucker rod fall time when sucker rod activated subsurface plunger pumps are employed. Due to the additional cubic volume of the injected compressed gas, the increased hydrocarbon production fluid and gas velocity within the subsurface production tubing and the surface flow line improves hydrocarbon fluid shear from the conduit walls and sucker rod surfaces, and prevents earthen contaminants such as sand, clay, shale, coal or other rock fragments, from precipitating, accumulating and blocking the flow of hydrocarbon production fluid within the subsurface production tubing and the surface flow line.
