Popis: On the basis of similarity in vortex chamber superchargers criteria of similarity are defined and their check by numerical researches is made. Vortex chamber superchargers have the big power efficiency of pumping, in comparison with classical jet pumps, at the expense of association of advantages of centrifugal and jet pumps on the basis of the vortex chamber. The concept of vortex chamber superchargers is based on a new principle of energy transfer in jet superchargers at the expense of hydrodynamic effects of rotating flows use. In consequence of pressure decrease near to an axis of the vortex chamber occurs intaking particles of a pumped over flow. Having got to the vortex chamber, particles get tangential velocity interact with a rotating flow at the expense of a momentum exchange. The received criteria take into account of three major factors of similarity: the geometrical sizes, pressure of an active stream on an input in the device, working medium density. Validity of the received criteria is confirmed by a finding of pressure-flow rate characteristics of similar operating modes of a supercharger and their further combination on one characteristic.
