Vortex heat generators are devices with which you can quite simply heat a living room. This is achieved only through the use of an electric motor, as well as a pump. In general, this device can be called economical, and it does not entail large costs. The standard scheme for connecting a vortex heat generator involves the use of a circulation pump. In the upper part, a check valve should be located. Due to this, the expansion tank is able to withstand high pressure.
A variety of heating appliances can be used. The most commonly used radiators, as well as convectors. Also, an integral part of the system of any model is considered to be a control unit with a temperature sensor and a dirt collector. To assemble a vortex heat generator with your own hands, you need to familiarize yourself with its most famous modifications in more detail.
Model with radial camera
It is quite difficult to make a vortex heat generator with your own radial camera (drawings and diagrams are shown below) is quite difficult. In this case, the rotor must be selected powerful and maximum pressure, it must withstand at least 3 bar. Also, make a case for the device. The thickness of the metal must be at least 2.5 mm. In this case, the output in diameter should be 5.5 cm. All this will allow you to successfully weld the device to the pipe.
The outlet valve is located in the device not very far from the edge of the flange. You should also choose a snail for the model. As a rule, in this case it is used of a steel type. In order for it to be erased, its ends must be sharpened in advance. The sealant in this situation can be used rubber. Its minimum thickness should be 2.2 mm. The exit diameter, in turn, is welcomed at 4.5 cm. Separately, it is necessary to pay attention to the diffuser. With this device, warm air enters the chamber. The radial modification differs in that it has many tubules. You can cut them yourself using a machine.
Vortex type heat generators with a C-shaped chamber
A self-made vortex heat generator is made with a C-shaped chamber for the house using a welding machine. In this case, it is necessary first of all to assemble the body for the snail. In this case, the cover must be detached separately. To do this, some experts advise cutting threads. The diffuser is used with a small diameter. The seal is used only at the outlet. There should be two valves in the system. You can fix the cochlea on the body with a bolt. However, it is important to fix the protective ring on it. The outlet from the rotor must be located at a distance of about 3.5 cm.
Vortex type heat generators Potapov
Potapov’s vortex heat generator is assembled with his own hands using a rotor on two disks. Its minimum diameter must be 3.5 cm. In this case, the stators are most often installed cast iron type. The case for the device can be selected steel, but the thickness of the metal in this case, the minimum must be about 2.2 mm. The casing for the vortex heat generator is selected with a thickness of approximately 3 mm. All this is necessary in order for the snail to sit rather tightly over the rotor. In this case, it is important to use a tight ring as well.
A casing is installed at the outlet, but its thickness must be approximately 2.2 mm. In order to fix the ring, you must use the sleeve. The fitting in this case should be above the cochlea. Diffusers for this device are the simplest. With this valve mechanism there are only two. One of them must be located above the rotor. In this case, the minimum clearance at the camera should be 2 mm. The cover is most often removed by thread. The electric motor for the device is selected with a power of at least 3 kW. Due to this, the ultimate pressure in the system can increase to 5 bar.
Build model on two outputs
You can make a vortex cavitation heat generator with your own hands with an electric motor with a power of about 5 kW. The housing for the device must be selected cast iron type. In this case, the minimum outlet diameter must be 4.5 cm. The rotors for this model are suitable for only two discs. In this case, the stator is important to use manual modifications. It is installed in a vortex heat generator above the cochlea.
Directly diffuser is advisable to use a small one. You can grind it with a pipe if desired. A snail pad is best used with a thickness of about 2 mm. However, in this situation, a lot depends on the seals. They must be installed immediately above the central sleeve. In order for the air to be quickly driven away, it is important to make an additional stand. In this case, the cover for the device is selected on the thread.
Vortex type heat generators for three outputs
Do-it-yourself vortex heat generator is assembled on three outputs (drawings are shown below) in the same way as the previous modification. However, the difference lies in the fact that the rotor for the device must be selected on one disk. Moreover, three valves are most often used in the mechanism. Packing glands are used only as a last resort.
Some experts also recommend the use of plastic snail seals. They are ideally suited for moisture resistance. A protective ring should also be installed under the cover. All this is necessary in order to reduce wear on the nozzle. Electric motors for vortex heat generators are mainly selected with a power of about 4 kW. The coupling should be provided fairly elastic. Finally, it should be noted that a flange is installed at the base of the cochlea.
Collector Model
Do-it-yourself assembly of the vortex heat generator with the collector is necessary from the preparation of the housing. In this case, there should be two outputs. Additionally, carefully grind the inlet. It is important to choose a cover in this situation separately with a thread. Electric motors with a collector mainly set medium power. In this situation, the energy consumption will be negligible.
The snail is selected steel type and installed immediately on the gasket. In order to fit it under the outlet, it is best to use a file. Moreover, for the construction of the housing, it is necessary to have a welding inverter. The collector, like the cochlea, must be on the gasket. In this case, the sleeve is fixed in the model using the clamping ring.
Vortex type heat generators with tangential channels
To assemble vortex heat generators with your own hands with tangential channels, you must first select a good sealant. Thanks to this, the device will keep the temperature for as long as possible. The engine is most often mounted with a power of about 3 kW. All this gives good performance, if properly installed snail and diffuser.
In this case, the gland is adjusted to the rotor itself. In order to fix it, many experts recommend using double-sided washers. In this case, the clamping rings are also installed. If the sleeve for the fitting does not fit, then it can be turned. To make a camera with channels there is the possibility of a cutter.
Using Unidirectional Spins
Do-it-yourself vortex heat generators are assembled with unidirectional swirls. In this case, work must begin as standard with the preparation of the device case. A lot in this situation depends on the size of the electric motor. Collectors, in turn, are used quite rarely.
Unidirectional twisting is established only after the flange is fixed. In turn, the casing is used only at the inlet. All this is necessary in order to reduce sleeve wear. In general, unidirectional twists allow you to not use fittings. In this case, the assembly of a vortex heat generator will cost inexpensively.
Using ring bushings
It is possible to assemble a vortex heat generator with ring sleeves with your own hands only with the help of a welding inverter. In this case, it is necessary to prepare the outlet in advance. The flange in the device should only be installed on the clamping ring. It is also important to choose a quality oil for the device. All this is necessary so that the wear of the ring is not significant. The sleeve in this case is installed directly under the cochlea. At the same time, the cover is rarely used for it. In this situation, you must pre-calculate the distance to the rack. It should not hurt the coupling.
Drive Modification
In order to make a vortex heat generator with your own hands, you first need to choose a good electric motor. Its power must be at least 4 kW. All this will give good heat output. Cases for the device are most often used cast iron. In this case, the outlet openings must be grinded separately. You can use a file for this. It is more expedient to select a rotor for an electric motor of a manual type. The coupling must be mounted on a protective washer. Many experts advise installing a snail only after a diffuser.
Thus, it will be possible to put the seal on the top cover. The direct drive mechanism should be located above the electric motor. However, today there are modifications with its lateral installation. Racks in this case must be welded from both ends. All this will significantly increase the strength of the device. Last but not least, the installation of the rotor is important. At this stage, special attention must be paid to fixing the casing.
