Abstract
The aim of the paper is to analyze the application possibilities of the Vortec tube in relation to its energy and economic aspects.The first part consists of an introduction, a description of the energy separation phenomenon in the Vortec tube and the application possibilities and parameters affecting Vortec tube functioning.The second part of the paper deals with the energy balance and economic operational aspects of Vortec tubes produced commercially. The energy balance consists of a thermal calculation of the Vortec tube, the energy-efficiency identification of thermal energy production and a comparison with thermal equipment used in practice. The thesis next continues with an economic analysis of the Vortec tube’s operation, connected with the production of compressed gas. The output of this part is a cost assessment of thermal energy production by means of the Vortec tube and its economic classification in the thermal resources generally used in Slovakia.The last part of the paper includes a static thermal calculation of a dryer using hot air produced by the Vortec tube from the point of view its thermal and temperature potential.
