108 results about "Supercavitation" patented technology

Supercavitation is the use of cavitation effects to create a bubble of gas or vapor large enough to encompass an object traveling through a liquid, greatly reducing the skin friction drag on the object and enabling high speeds. Current applications are mainly limited to projectiles or fast supercavitation torpedoes, and some propellers, but in principle, the technique could be extended to include entire vehicles. Russian Navy is the only one in the world having supercavitation torpedoes VA-111 Shkval in service. Due to the use of supercavitation, this torpedo is a unique weapon that exceeds the speed of conventional torpedoes by at least a factor of 5. The supercavitation VA-111 Shkval torpedo was developed in the Soviet Union and it has been in service since 1977. Chinese and the US Navy are reportedly working on supercavitating submarines using technical information obtained regarding the Soviet Shkval torpedoes.

Equipment for excavation of deep boreholes in geological formation and the manner of energy and material transport in the boreholes

Utilisation of geothermal energy in depths above 5 km could contribute considerably to resolving the global problems related to a lack of energy and to glasshouse gases from fossil fuels. The invention describes innovative equipment which makes deep holes in geological formations (rock) by disintegrating the soil into blocks carried to the land surface through the excavated hole filled with liquid, using transport modules yielded up by gas buoyancy interaction in the transport module utilising supercavitation. In an opposite direction—by help of negative buoyancy—the necessary energy carriers, materials and components, or entire devices required for rock excavation, are carried to the bottom. The opportunity to transport rock in entire blocks reduces energy consumption considerably, because the rock is disintegrated in the section volumes only. Some of the extracted rock and material carried from the surface is used to make a casing of the hole using a part of the equipment. The equipment also allows the generation of the necessary high pressure of liquid at the bottom of the hole, to increase permeability of adjacent rock. The equipment as a whole allows by its function that there is almost linear dependence between the price and depth (length) of the produced hole (borehole).

The invention discloses a projectile holder separating system based on the momentum theorem and relates to projectile holder separating systems. When an existing integral projectile holder is separated from a projectile by means of air resistance or a muzzle check ring, a long flying distance is needed for separating the projectile holder from a projectile body, and the track of the projectile body is seriously affected by the projectile holder; meanwhile, due to the fact that the projectile holder enters water at the same time along with the projectile body, the water surface splashing shape and the cavitation shape which are formed after the projectile enters water are directly disturbed; in addition, the shooting quality of the image showing the process that the projectile enters water by an operator is reduced due to the disturbance of the projectile holder, and consequentially data provided by the image are not accurate. According to the projectile holder separating system based on the momentum theorem, a buffer spacer is arranged between an accelerating projectile holder body and a blocking projectile holder body and tightly attached to the blocking projectile holder body, and the accelerating projectile holder body is a rotating body; a projectile storage cavity is formed in the accelerating projectile holder body; the projectile is placed in the projectile storage cavity, and the head of the projectile faces a muzzle; a projectile passing hole is machined in the blocking projectile holder body in the length direction of the blocking projectile holder body; a recovery cover is located outside a gun barrel and faces the muzzle of the gun barrel. The projectile holder separating system based on the momentum theorem is used for supercavitation projectile experiments.
