A power generator comprising:
- a. a support for supporting a shaft;
- b. a shaft journalled in bearings in said support for rotation;
- c. a rotating first rotor mounted on said shaft so as to rotate in unison therewith;
- said rotor being hollow for circulating a fluid therewithin;
- said rotor having a first cavity near the center of said rotor adapted for passing said fluid and connected with a second cavity extending outward from the center of said rotor;
- said second cavity having vanes therewithin for assuring that said fluid will rotate with said rotor for acceleration of said fluid for pressurization of said fluid;
- said second cavity having a plurality of discharge nozzles for passing said fluid into a third cavity, said third cavity being a cavity for forming a free vortex by said fluid;
- said second cavity discharge nozzles being located a predetermined distance away from the center of rotation of said rotor;
- said second cavity discharge nozzles being sized and shaped to obtain highest attainable exit velocity for said fluid from said nozzles for the pressure differential available between entry and exit ends of said discharge nozzles;
- said second cavity discharge nozzles being oriented to discharge said fluid in nearly tangentially forward direction that is in the direction of rotation of said first rotor;
- said fluid being pressurized within said third cavity by being forced to follow a curved path formed by said third cavity, with the highest fluid pressure existing at the radial distance furthest away from the center of rotation of said rotor;
- said fluid being then passed to exit nozzles from said third cavity with said exit nozzles being located near the periphery of said third cavity and with said exit nozzles being oriented to discharge said fluid in forward direction that is in the direction of rotation;
- said fluid being at a higher pressure at the entry to said third cavity exit nozzles than at the entry to said first cavity;
- d. a second rotor for generating power and being rotatably mounted and supported by a shaft and bearings;
- said second rotor cavity at periphery being adjacent to said first rotor third cavity exit nozzles for receiving said fluid;
- said fluid being passed inward toward the center of rotation via inward extending fluid passageways with said inward extending fluid passageways being provided with vanes for assuring that said fluid will rotate with said second rotor and for recovery of the work associated with the deceleration of said fluid;
- said second rotor being sealed with said first rotor for retention of pressure of said fluid;
- said fluid being discharged from said second rotor near the rotor center with said fluid being passed into said first rotor first cavity;
- e. a means for adding heat to said fluid.
