36results about How to "Reduce the amount of condensate" patented technology

Various systems and methods are described for a charge air cooler coupled to an engine. One example method comprises collecting condensate discharged from the cooler in a condensation trap coupled to an outside surface of a bend in an outlet duct of the cooler; during a first condition, temporarily storing the condensate in a reservoir of the condensation trap; and, during first and second conditions, releasing the condensate to the outlet duct in a direction of airflow via a tube.

A system provides warm, humidified gas to a patient via a patient interface. Horizontal connections can be used between the humidification chamber and conduit. To reduce the likelihood of condensate flowing back to the humidification chamber, or dead space or gases recirculation regions occurring within the gases flow path, a raised portion is positioned inside of the flow path to improve flow characteristics and to provide a barrier for condensate back flow. The raised portion also reduces the amount of condensate that is formed in the system and provides better flow characteristics for sensing purposes.

A vertical electric cooker and smoker having lower air intake vents and upper exhaust vents which together create a more balanced flow and distribution of smoke and reduce the operating pressure of the system to allow a much larger load of wood chips to be used without refilling. A smoke box is also provided for holding and properly combusting the larger quantity of wood chips in an oxygen deficient environment. The smoke box has a false bottom and discharges the smoke through a circuitous exhaust flow path. Also, the electric heating elements of the cooking and smoking apparatus are contained in an assembly which provides an air gap beneath the smoker box and also shields the smoker box to prevent the wood chips in the smoker box from becoming overheated.

A heat spreader comprising a sheet of transparent diamond with an aperture therein that accommodates a solid-immersion lens (SIL). The heat spreader may be mounted within a clamp which allows the heat spreader to move freely across the Device Under Test (DUT) while maintaining a very high degree of planarity and contact between the diamond and the silicon substrate of the DUT. The DUT is secured to its electrical interface with a low profile clamp, the DUT may be held within the clamp by a mechanism that applies a pressure to the sides of the DUT package.

The present invention concerns a swimming goggle including at least one main body including: (a) an outer lens; (b) an inner lens; (c) a sealed gap separating the outer lens and the inner lens; and (d) an inner space arranged adjacent to the inner lens.

Connectors for respiratory assistance systems are disclosed that are configured to at least decrease the proportion of condensate that drains into an inspiratory conduit. The connectors include a setup that causes the portion of a wye-piece connected to an expiratory conduit to be positioned below the portion of the wye-piece connected to the inspiratory conduit. The connector can alternatively, or additionally, include a wye-piece that includes a ball attached to the wye-piece adjacent the inspiratory conduit port such that when the ball is connected to a medical stand, the expiratory conduit port is positioned below the inspiratory conduit port. The connector can alternatively or additionally include a circuit hanger that includes a cradles for both conduits and a ball attached to the circuit hanger adjacent the inspiratory conduit cradle such that when the ball is connected to a medical stand, the expiratory conduit cradle is positioned below the inspiratory conduit cradle. The connector can alternatively or additionally include a coaxial wye-piece that includes an inspiratory branch, an expiratory branch, and a patient end. The tip of the inspiratory branch that is internal to the coaxial wye-piece may have a lip and a narrowed diameter, features which obstruct or reduce condensate from entering the inspiratory branch and the inspiratory conduit regardless of the coaxial wye-piece orientation or position.

The invention belongs to the field of hydrometallurgy and particularly relates to a vanadium pentoxide preparation method. The preparation method comprises the following steps that (a) the temperature of acidic vanadium liquid rises from normal temperature to 65-75 DEG C in the preheating process of a vanadium precipitation process by using a static mixer pipe and utilizing steam heat exchange; (b) the acidic vanadium liquid subjected to heat exchange is added into an ammonium tank, ammonium sulfate is added, and stirring is performed to obtain mixed liquid; (c) the mixed liquid is added into a sedimentation tank, stirring is performed, a pH value is regulated to be 1.5-2, and steam heating is performed to reach 90 DEG C to boiling so as to obtain an ammonium poly-vanadate solution; (d) precipitate obtained after the ammonium poly-vanadate solution precipitates is washed, dried and calcinated to obtain vanadium pentoxide. The flowing state of the acidic vanadium liquid in the pipe is changed by utilizing a mixing unit body fixed in the static mixer pipe, the formation of a laminar flow bottom layer is inhibited to enable the acidic vanadium liquid to rapidly disperse in the pipe, the temperature distribution of all parts of the solution tends to be uniform, the formation of a scale layer is retarded, and the production efficiency of the vanadium pentoxide is improved.

The invention discloses a cooking pot used for steam heating and a steam heating type cooking utensil, which belongs to the field of kitchen appliances and solves the problem of inconvenient cleaning of the lid of the cooking pot in the prior art. The cooking pot of the present invention includes a pot A body and a pot cover, the pot cover includes an outer cover and an inner cover, the outer cover is covered on the pot edge of the pot body, the inner cover cooperates with the pot body to form a cooking cavity, and the cooking pot The appliance further includes a steam conduit, a protruding air inlet joint is arranged on the inner side of the outer cover, the air inlet joint penetrates the inner cover, and the steam conduit is detachably mounted on the air inlet joint and positioned axially the inner cover. The present invention adopts a detachable inner cover design, so that the inner cover can be cleaned separately.
