Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2535558A1] The method involves creating negative pressure which is in communication with gas pressure in insert (2) through the riser tubes (10) and liquid medium from container (1) is fed into hollow portion (3) to produce kinetic energy. The fluid medium flowing into hollow portion is extracted, and the liquid level in use runs back by increasing gas pressure in hollow portion with respect to negative pressure generated by rotor (8) with liquid level of low height during conveying operation in hollow portion. The gas pressure in hollow portion remains lower than the gas pressure in operation. An independent claim is included for device for producing continuous driving force by providing kinetic energy of liquid medium.
