Device and method of creating hydrodynamic cavitation in fluids

A device for creating hydrodynamic cavitation in fluids comprising:

• a flow-through channel having a wall,
• said wall having a first orifice that is in communication with said flow-through channel for introducing a first liquid stream into said flow-through channel,
• said wall having a second orifice opposite said first orifice that is in communication with said flow-through channel for introducing a second liquid stream into said flow-through channel,
• wherein said first orifice and second orifice share the same center-line and said first orifice has a diameter smaller than that of said second orifice.

A device for creating hydrodynamic cavitation in fluids comprising:

• a flow-through channel for passing a hydrodynamic liquid, said flow-through channel having an outlet;
• a cavitation chamber situated within said flow-through channel, said cavitation chamber defined by a wall and an exit orifice wherein:
• said wall includes a pair of opposing orifices wherein the first and second orifices share the same center-line and are in communication with the chamber and said first orifice has a diameter smaller than that of said second orifice, and
• said exit orifice is in communication with said outlet;
• a restriction wall in physical communication with said wall and said flow-through channel to prevent the hydrodynamic liquid from exiting the flow-through channel before entering said first and second orifices.

A method of creating hydrodynamic cavitation in fluids comprising:

• providing a first orifice and a second opposing orifice in a wall of a chamber such that the first and second orifices share the same center-line and the first orifice has a diameter smaller than that of said second orifice;
• introducing a first liquid stream through said first orifice to create a first liquid jet;
• introducing a second liquid stream through said second orifice to create a second liquid jet;
• creating a high shear intensity vortex contact layer when said first liquid jet interacts with and penetrates said second liquid jet;
• and
• creating and collapsing cavitation caverns and bubbles in said high shear intensity vortex contact layer.
