The ring thruster is a new type of propeller, for which there is no experimental data to verify analytical design calculations. A significant feature of the ring thruster is the absence of a shaft. Propeller blades are mounted to the ring rotating inside the housing, which has the shape of a nozzle. For this reason the ring thruster is closest, with respect to both the construction and principle of operation, to the Kort nozzle propeller. The absence of a shaft and no gap between the blades and the nozzle make it impossible to fully relay on results obtained from Kort nozzle propeller examination. What is more, the already existing computer codes developed for designing Kort nozzle propellers cannot be directly used for designing ring thrusters either. That is why for this purpose a new code determining hydrodynamic characteristics based on the theory of the vortex lifting surface will be used. When using the above method, some differences between calculated and experimentally recorded results are expected to be observed. To a significant extent, the level of the torque taken by the thruster will be affected by drag of the rotating ring to which the blades are fixed. Examining a propeller equipped with a rotating ring has revealed that the expected torque increment may reach as much as a few per cent, at the comparable level of axial force (thrust). At the present stage of ring propeller investigations there is no data available on how to shape the ring propeller blades. Possible comparison calculations, done using the existing computer code, will allow, the most, the shape of the blades to be determined for preliminary tests in the cavitation tunnel and on a self-propelled model. And only the results obtained in these tests will provide opportunities for verification of preliminary design calculations. It should be stressed, however, that developing design procedures for this type of propellers will require additional optimisation calculations, with further experimental verification. And this should be the subject of separate investigations
The article analyses properties of magnetic fluid seals installed in rotary sealing nodes which operate in the utility water environment. Seals of this type have been examined as a possible solution to the problem with ship manoeuvring propulsion sealing. The present analysis bases on laboratory durability tests of magnetic fluid seals exposed to long-term utility water loads, at different water pressures and shaft revolutions. The basic seal durability criterion was the number of revolutions made by the sealing node shaft until the appearance of water tightness loss (leakage). It was found that the main factor leading to the wear of the seal is the relative speed of the magnetic fluid with respect to that of the utility water, and this process is heavily affected by the pressure acting on the seal. The reported test results are presented in the form of diagrams showing the seal durability (time until water tightness loss) as a function of rotational speed. The curves shown in the diagrams are regular, with two different rotational speed ranges: the high-speed range, when the tightness loss is relatively fast, and the low-speed range, with a clear tendency to prolong the seal lifetime. These diagrams were given the name of durability curves of the MF seal operating in water. The results of the performed tests suggest formal similarity between the experimental data distribution concerning tightness loss processes occurring in magnetic fluid seals operating in water environment and metal fatigue processes. The article proposes a preliminary simplified durability model to describe the examined phenomenon

The centrifugal magnetic fluid seals have important advantage over the conventional centrifugal seals. They maintain very good sealing capacity at static, medium and high speeds of shaft rotation, with the increased seal lifetime, and minimum torque and static friction. These seals are particularly useful in cases when the angular shaft velocity varies and sometimes decreases to nearly or exactly zero, such as in flywheel applications, ship propeller main shafts, etc. Unique properties of the magnetic fluid give rare opportunities for application in marine design, where perfect sealing together with reliable lubrication are required. The paper presents a typical design and operation principle of a centrifugal magnetic fluid shaft seal, along with new design solutions. Not only in ocean technology and underwater robotics. Some cases of application of centrifugal magnetic fluid seals in modern sealing technology are included
The edge criteria for magnetic-fluid seals durability research were described in previous article [24] and now the tests results are presented. The tests were made with three magnetic fluids using various magnets quantity in magnetic assemblies. If values obtained in the repeated test deviated by more than 10 % from results of the first test an additional control test was made for final characteristics. The characteristics are: critical pressure, critical motion velocity and working life of the seal. The test stands were prepared for particular seals dimensions and results of tests are presented in the form of tables, cross section draws and diagrams. In conclusion one can see that multi-stage magnetic-fluid seals could be efficiently used in water for rotating shaft seals in a limited range of motion velocity and cycles quantity. Nevertheless a particular applications can be provided by magnetic-fluid seals only
The edge criteria for magnetic-fluid seals durability research are critical for the seal’s technological usefulness. The magnetic fluid seal technology in water is much more difficult technological problem in comparison to gas or vacuum environment. There is always problem with immediate contact between magnetic fluid and the environmental uninspected liquids. In the paper are presented ways of experiments definitions carried out with multi-stage rotating magnetic fluid seal operating in permanent contact with utility water. The special test procedures have been elaborated and practically used, with the aim to define main characteristics of magnetic fluid seals. These characteristics were: critical pressure, critical motion velocity and working life of the seal. Some grades of commercial, silicon based magnetic fluids of hydrophobic properties were tested in sealing system. The test stand and its features as well as results of tests are presented in the form of tables, cross section draws and diagrams. In conclusion one can see that multi-stage magnetic-fluid seals could be efficiently used in water for rotating shaft seals in a limited range of motion velocity and work lasting
This paper presents course of research on ferro-fluidal seals used in water. The tests were carried out fora hydrophobic magnetic fluid and specially selected profiles of sealing lips at various linear velocitiesin sealing unit. Though the tests were preliminary their results showed that the research on application of magnetic fluids to seals working in liquid environment should be continued. From the point of view ofdevelopment of ring drives the most important advantage of ferro-fluidal seals is their smallest drag ascompared with seals of other types
Introduction. Supracondylar fractures of the humeral bone are frequent injuries in children. It has been affirmed that supracondylar fractures have an excellent prognosis when proper treatment is applied. Objective. Present of the statistical relationships between fractures occurring and patient’s development period; the relation between development period and site of the fracture and statistical relationship between development period and gender of the patients. Also indicated are the place of residence of the hospitalized patients and time of admission to the Clinic after injury. Materials and method. Research was based on the data of paediatric patients treated in the Clinic for Paediatric Surgery, Traumatology and Paaediatric Orthopaedics, and Rehabilitation Clinic of the Medical University in Lublin, Poland, between 1986- 2010. An independent Chi-square Test was used for statistical analysis (c²). Results. The majority of patients were admitted to the Clinic on the day of injury. Of these patients, 71% lived in the urban area of the Lublin region where all the children received medical care in hospital directly after trauma; 29% of children came from the rural areas of the Lublin region, and 10% of them were admitted to hospital 24 or more hours after the injury. Conclusion. 71% of patients lived in the urban areas of the Lublin region and the main cause of injury was a fall from a higher level onto an outstretched upper left limb. Most supracondylar fractures of the humeral bone concerned children at school and adolescent age. Despite the fact that some of the hospitalised children lived in the rural areas of the Lublin region, the majority were admitted to the Clinic directly after trauma and received timely treatment.
The reported project aimed at examining properties and purposefulness of use of modern electromagnetic bearings for a screw propeller in a prototype version of a synchronous ring motor with rare earths magnets. Bearings of this type generate electromagnetic forces which keep the rotor in a state of levitation. The rotating machine with magnetic bearings can work in any environment which reveals diamagnetic properties (air, vacuum, water, liquid gases, etc.). However, a basic quality of the magnetic bearings is elimination of cooling installation and lubrication, which is necessary for proper operation of rotating machines with rolling and slide bearings, undergoing wear with time. Therefore the lifetime of the machine supported on magnetic bearings is incomparable with others. Also torque losses on this bearing are the smallest, compared to all known types of bearings. Ring thrusters can be used as the main drive for relatively small sea-going and inland vessels, and as manoeuvring drive for ships of arbitrary size, especially for AES (All Electric Ship) type vessels. This type of propeller is extremely useful for any types of abyssal vessels, autonomous and remotely controlled, and on submarines. It can also be used as effective generator of electric current for charging batteries in towing trains, barges for instance. The project consisted of three research tasks: 1. Designing, manufacturing and examination of a magnetic bearing on-line controlled by a digital controller, 2. Manufacturing a model of a ring thruster and examination of characteristics of a propeller mounted in the ring, 3. Examining the ferrofluid seal.A concept of the new thruster is a consequence of investigations carried out in Poland upon propellers and magnetic bearings in years 2001-2005
Presented in article MF seals are being researched for sea technology purposes due to their excellent tightness and low resistance of motion. These features are most valuable for ring propellers and ship’s main propeller shaft. There are more reasons why technologists payf significant attention for various MFseals applications in their difficult operating conditions. For instance, an advanced pumping systemsare designed with contactless (screw or centrifugal) fluid seal used as the first stage seal and then theMF seal as the main seal. Further parts of the article contain discuss of the properties of magnetic fluidsin the construction of MF seals. Sample of the few systems of magnetic fluid seals are presented, whichhave been researched lately in our laboratory including sea conditions. The magnetic fluids used in ourseals are colloidal suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles. Undertaken earlier various systems selection for sea-water purposes forced us to focus on double sealing systems, in which the MF seal is used as the second seal following a conventional system especially adapted to co-operation with MF systems. This solution successfully limits direct contact of the sealed liquid with the magnetic fluid,andtheentiresealingconstruction secures absolute tightness of the system. Using this solution we also can reduce costs by elements high accuracy avoidance. Research and design activities are carried out in the AGH Laboratory of Seals and Magnetic Fluid Applications together with Deep Water Department of Technical University of Gdansk over the use of magnetic fluid seals in sea water environment. These activities are oriented on working outMF seals able to work effectively in machines in which low-pressure water flow takes place. The objectsof experimental investigations are seals having two different nominal diameters: 50 mm and 220 mm and two research rigs of different construction had to be built up. Works are scheduled to be continued
In the article a mathematical model of radial passive magnetic bearings applicable to ocean engineering units has been presented. The application of the bearings in ship thrusters should increase durability of propulsion systems and give lower maintenance costs. The rotor of thruster’s electric motor is suspended in magnetic field generated by radial passive magnetic bearings. However the maintaining of axial direction of the rotor must be controlled with electromagnets equipped with a high-dynamic controller. The risk of application of the magnetic bearings results from very low stiffness of the unit in comparison with rolling bearings. Also construction of the bearing should be different due to gyroscope effect and high forces generated during ship manoeuvring. The physical model performs correctly if electromagnets are controlled properly; and, technological problem with sealing system seems more significant than power supply to electromagnets winding. The equations presented in the article are necessary to build algorithms of a digital controller intended for on-line controlling magnetic bearing in axial direction
Use of the magnetic fluid seal technology in water is much more difficult technological problem in comparison to gas or vacuum environment. Some seals constructed up to time been are designed as hybrid, two stage sealing structures with shields or mechanical seals used as protection measures to the magnetic fluid seal. Anyway, there is always problem with immediate contact between magnetic fluid and the environmental liquid. In the paper are presented results of experiments carried out with one stage rotating magnetic fluid seal operating in immediate contact with utility water. The special test procedures have been elaborated and practically used, with the aim to define main characteristics of magnetic fluid seals and to simplify experiments. These characteristics were: critical pressure, critical motion velocity and working life of the seal. Four grades of commercial, silicon based magnetic fluids of hydrophobic properties were tested in a single stage sealing system. The results of tests are presented in the form of tables and diagrams. It is concluded that hydrophobic commercial magnetic fluids could be efficiently used in rotating shaft seals however in a limited range of motion velocity
The article reports the course of preliminary examination of a ferrofluid seal applied in liquid environment.A newly built research rig is described, and results of pressure tests performed for different shaft rotations are discussed. Other studies carried out in the past only referred to the gas environment, while the present examination aims at finding an answer to the question whether magnetic liquids can be successfully usedin under water applications. The obtained answer is positive, but further, more comprehensive investigations of the problem are necessary
