ABSTRACT:
One manifestation of an advanced superventuri power source comprises: (i) a series of at least three venturi tubes with at least one threesome of the tubes labeled an alpha-, beta-, and gamma-venturi tube respectively, and of predetermined successively increasing flow capacity respectively; (ii) the alpha- and beta-venturi tubes each having an open entrance to permit flow through the respective open entrance and out of the respective open exit; (iii) respective inlets of the threesome each facing the intended direction of flow; (iv) the open exits of the alpha- and beta-venturi tubes placed adjacent the throats of the beta- and gamma-venturi tubes, respectively, so that respective central axes of the threesome essentially merge into a central super-axis along an intended line of flow; (v) as referenced from the super-axis, the inlets of the alpha-, beta-, and gamma-venturi tubes being positioned to intercept relatively inner, intermediate, and outer portions of the selected medium as an alpha-, beta-, and gamma-flow, respectively, whereby in operation the alpha-flow as exhaust from the open exit of the alpha-venturi tube joins accelerated beta-flow adjacent the throat of the beta-venturi tube and the beta-flow as exhaust from the open exit of the beta-venturi tube, in turn, joins accelerated gamma-flow adjacent the throat of gamma-venturi tube; and (vi) a beta-turbine adjacent the throat of the beta-venturi tube to recover useful rotary mechanical power.
