Fluid Electric Generator with Nested Tubes and Worm Shaft

The patent implements a nested tube configuration where an inner tube is positioned within an outer tube, creating concentric flow paths. The inner tube diameter is smaller than the outer tube diameter, allowing fluid to flow through both tubes in opposite directions. This nesting arrangement maximizes the interaction length between fluid and rotor without proportionally increasing device volume, thereby improving energy conversion efficiency while maintaining compact dimensions.

The patent transitions from a single-tube design to a dual-tube concentric arrangement, adding a spatial dimension to the fluid flow path. By utilizing both inner and outer tubes for bidirectional flow, the system increases the effective interaction length between fluid and rotor in three-dimensional space, enhancing energy extraction efficiency without linearly increasing the device footprint.

The nested tube design allows the fluid to travel through both the inner tube and outer tube in a serpentine path, effectively doubling the interaction length within a compact volume. The concentric arrangement enables the fluid to pass along the rotor from both directions, maximizing energy extraction without requiring a proportionally larger device volume.

By utilizing the radial dimension through concentric tubes, the patent creates multiple flow paths that increase the effective interaction length. The fluid flows through the inner tube in one direction and through the outer tube in the opposite direction, creating a three-dimensional flow pattern that enhances energy conversion within a compact footprint.

The concentric tube arrangement with inner and outer tubes creates two simultaneous fluid flow paths that both drive the rotor. This nesting configuration allows the system to process twice the fluid volume compared to a single tube of equivalent outer diameter, thereby doubling the potential power output without requiring a proportional increase in device size or manufacturing complexity.

The patent utilizes the radial dimension by positioning tubes at different radii, creating parallel flow paths that both contribute to rotor power generation. This three-dimensional arrangement allows independent optimization of each tube's flow characteristics while both contributing to total power output, enabling scalable power generation capability.
