Abstract

The invention relates to the field of jet technology. A gas-liquid mixture is fed from a jet apparatus into a jet converter where the flow of the gas-liquid mixture first undergoes expansion and thus is transformed into a supersonic gas-liquid flow. This supersonic gas-liquid flow is then decelerated in a shaped flow-through channel section t of the converter. A pressure jump is generated there and partial transformation of kinetic energy of the flow into potential energy of pressure takes place. In order to implement this operational process, the system is furnished with a jet converter, which includes an expansion chamber and a shaped flow-through section, the inlet of the expansion chamber is connected to the jet apparatus outlet, and the outlet of the shaped flow-through section is connected to a separator.
