Compressors and Heat Pumps


The Quasiturbine is a positive displacement pump, and does not make use of aero-dynamic or hydro-dynamic flows like traditional turbines do.

In pump mode, a Quasiturbine driven by an external motor could have 2 intakes and 2 outlets.

A Quasiturbine could also be used as a Positive Displacement Pressure pump, but could also be used as a Vacuum pump.

Dual Mode:

Each circuit of the Quasiturbine could be used as either a vacuum or a pressure pump for compressible or non-compressible fluids.
Thus a turbo pump and engine could be simultaneously created in a single device!
  • The engine circuit would be pressurized at its intake port, with the exhaust 90 degrees away.
  • The pump intake would use the following port, expelling the fluid from the fourth quadrant exhaust port (a further 90 degrees away).
  • This mode would be suitable for applications where fluid contamination between the 2 circuits is not a factor, however.
