Cyclonically cooled and filtered smoking water pipe and method

A hydrodynamically cooled and filtered smoking apparatus is provided having a housing, an inlet pipe, a stirring mechanism, and a flow deflecting body. The housing having at least one wall portion providing a chamber configured to contain a fluid for circulation therein. The inlet pipe has an inlet configured to draw in smoke from a source and an outlet provided within the chamber beneath a top surface of the contained fluid configured to deliver the smoke into the chamber for entrainment within the fluid. The stirring mechanism is provided in the housing and is driven to induce cyclonic circulation of the fluid and the smoke in the chamber. The flow deflecting body has a suction surface with at least one aperture provided in the suction surface and communicating with the inlet pipe. The suction surface is oriented in the fluid to generate hydrodynamic force to draw smoke into the fluid and aerate the fluid by entraining the smoke in the fluid as bubbles. A method is also provided.
