Abstract

A rotary pressure exchanger includes a housing and a rotor. Channels are inside the rotor to transfer pressure from a first fluid to a second fluid. Each channel extends parallel to the axis of rotation, and the housing includes a first inlet port for supplying the first fluid to the channels, a first outlet port for discharging the first fluid from the channels, a second inlet port for suppling the second fluid to the channels, and a second outlet port for discharging the second fluid from the channels. The first and second inlet ports are radial inlet ports, such that the first fluid and the second fluid enter the rotor in a radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction, and the first outlet port and the second outlet port are radial outlet ports, such that the first fluid and the second fluid leave the rotor in the radial direction.
