TITLE HYDROKINETIC AMPLIFIER ABSTRACT A hydrokinetic amplifier (10) uses liquid and vapor input nozzles (11) and ( 12) discharging into an acceleration chamber (13) downstream from which a diverging diffuser (15) extends. Liquid nozzle (11) forms a free liquid jet (20) that extends for a substantial distance through acceleration chamber (13), and vapor flowing at a much higher speed into acceleration chamber (13) surrounds, impinges on, and condenses into free liquid jet (20). Collapse of the condensing vapor forms a suction into which more vapor flows. Acceleration chamber (13) gradually converges from an ingress region (14) receiving liquid and vapor to an egress region (16) flowing mostly liquid into diffuser (15). Vapor nozzle (12) has a throat region (12a) arranged upstream of the discharge region (21) of liquid nozzle (11) and an expanding region (12b) extending from throat region (12a) downstream toward ingress region (14) of acceleration chamber (13) so that vapor is expanding when it contacts the liquid. The vapor surrounds and travels in the direction of free liquid jet (20) so that substantially more than half of the expanding vapor contacts and condenses in liquid jet (20), transferring momentum energy from the vapor to the liquid to accelerate the liquid toward egress region (16).
