Abstract (en)
A vortex device for a hydroacoustic treatment of a fluid that flows through the vortex device, the device comprising: a cylindrical inlet section of a first diameter; a cylindrical outlet section of a second diameter that is smaller than the first diameter, wherein the inlet section is connected to the outlet section via a conical reducer. The inlet section comprises tangential inlets to generate a concurrent flow of the fluid upon entry. The vortex device further comprises a conical cover comprising a base that covers the inlet section and an apex such that the conical cover directs the fluid from the outside of the vortex device to the tangential inlets.
