Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/179022
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A unit (10) for causing angular momentum (11) about an axis (13a), which unit includes, in flow sequence, an incoming fluid pathway (12), a first fluid pathway (14a) in fluid communication with the incoming fluid pathway (12), a second fluid pathway (16a) in fluid communication with the incoming fluid pathway (12), an outgoing fluid pathway (18) in fluid communication with the first and second fluid pathway (14a, 16a), a flow regulating means (20a) for regulating the proportional flow in the first and second fluid pathways (14a, 16a), and wherein the first and second fluid pathways (14a, 16a) are respectively arranged about the axis (13a) generally in a plane transverse to the axis (13a).
