A tube and shell heat exchanger having a transversely oriented inlet port and a spirally coiled heat transfer tube contained within an arcuate chamber created by an internal baffle in which the water to be conditioned travels along a helical pathway in which the flow has minimized water depth and high turbulence. The tube and shell heat exchanger maximizes heat transfer capability in a relatively easy to assemble design to make feasible the use of a higher cost material for the tubing such as titanium in a wide range of applications.

The gateway device comprises a managing unit managing presence information of a presentity, and a control unit performing control so that, when receiving the delegating notification of the presence information management function about at least one of the plurality of presentities from a presence server, the managing unit is executed with respect to the function-delegated presentity.

A two-spool turbojet built up of major bladed components first developped for unrelated turbofan engine types. The high pressure (“HP”) spool comes from a turbofan which powered a large airliner carrying 300 or more passengers across a continent or an ocean. The low pressure (“LP”) compressor is the fan from a military aircraft's engine or a smaller airliner turbofan, or both. The object is that all the LP compressor output goes into the HP compressor, making a turbojet from existing turbofan components. This saves development costs, and creates an engine for propelling a large aircraft at supersonic speeds more efficiently than by an afterburning turbofan. In the preferred embodiment, the number of stages in the HP spool is halved, saving weight for the addition of a remote fan (known elsewhere) which doubles the air mass flow. That increases propulsive efficiency during subsonic cruise.

An exhaust gas return system for an internal-combustion machine which comprises a low-pressure supply line extending from an inlet to a compressor. From the compressor a high-pressure supply line extends to the internal-combustion machine. From the internal-combustion machine a high-pressure exhaust gas line extends to a turbine. From the turbine a low-pressure exhaust gas line extends to an outlet. The low-pressure exhaust gas line and the low-pressure supply line have connected therewith a low-pressure return line for returning exhaust gas. The high-pressure exhaust gas line has connected therewith a bypass line for utilizing the heat of the exhaust gas produced in the internal-combustion machine for heating the exhaust gas to be returned of the low-pressure return line before the exhaust gas is supplied to the turbine (24), if desired. Thus the cold start phase of the internal-combustion machine can be reduced.

The invention discloses an optimum scheme of an ultra-supercritical secondary reheating unit, and refers to a secondary reheating unit of a coal-fired power plant after optimization of a back heating system, parameter optimization of main steam, primary reheating steam, and secondary reheating steam, and structural optimization of a turbine body. The optimum scheme of the ultra-supercritical secondary reheating unit can obviously reduce the heat loss of the secondary reheating unit, and significantly decrease greenhouse gas emission and decreases cost of the ultra-supercritical secondary reheating unit obviously. By taking a 1200 MW grade unit as an example, four mono-axial cylinders are used for gas exhausting, the ultra-supercritical secondary reheating unit is composed of a single-flow ultra-high pressure cylinder capable of completely supplying water, back-heating and pumping gas, a dual-flow high and medium pressure cylinder, and two dual-flow middle and low pressure cylinders; there is no middle pressure cylinder and a middle low pressure linking pipe; no gas pumping opening is arranged on the high middle pressure cylinder and the middle low pressure cylinder; the water supply and back heating are provided by a first pump, a new second pump, a new third pump, and a new fourth pump; a ultra-low temperature coal economizer, and a heat primary wind condensing water heater replace a seventh pump, an eighth pump, a ninth pump, and a tenth pump to heat the condensed water; all low-pressure heaters are canceled.

The invention relates to a method and device for reducing the volume or pressure of a fluid which is driven through an opening (3, 17) by moving surfaces. According to said method, the opening (3, 17) is divided in at least two flow channels (5, 6, 14) by means of one or more flexible separation members (4). Each separation member (4) is attached at its rear end relatively to the direction of displacement of said surfaces, and its front finishing end extends inside said opening (3, 17). The inventive method can be advantageously implemented during production and further transformation of strip-shaped materials (paper, cardboard strips, plastic material sheets) for bringing the strip which moves on an element (cylinder, roll, rigid guiding element, winding reel) into close contact with said element.

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a fuel injector for an internal combustion engine that has a control valve, which opens or closes an outlet throttle from a control chamber and in which a closing element is moved into a valve seat in order to close the outlet throttle. The valve seat is produced by punch-forming using a forming punch. The invention also relates to a fuel injector that is manufactured in accordance with this method.

The invention provides a cooling compensation type air cooling island system and belongs to the technical field of steam exhaust cooling of steam turbine generator units. According to the cooling compensation type air cooling island system, a compensation cooler is additionally arranged based on an existing air cooling island system; the compensation cooler is installed on a primary pipe of an air extraction pipeline; and meanwhile, each air extraction branch pipeline is provided with a regulating valve, a regulating valve bypass and a compensation cooler bypass. By arranging the compensation cooler on the air extraction pipeline, the volume flow of the air extraction pipeline can be substantially reduced, and accordingly the efficiency of a vacuumizing system is remarkably improved. Through the regulating valves on the vacuumizing pipelines, resistance compensation measures are provided for the resistance characteristics of each row of air cooling radiators, the steam flow of the different rows of air cooling radiators is distributed evenly, thus, the overall cooling capacity of the air cooling island is improved, and the average coal consumption of the units is reduced. Through the composite action of cooling compensation and resistance compensation, aggregation of non-condensable gases of the air cooling radiators can be greatly relieved, and the anti-freezing performance of the air cooling radiators is improved.

A cyclone separator for a vacuum cleaner. The separator has a cyclone chamber, an air entrance device having a flow passage arrangement therethrough for introducing an air stream into the cyclone chamber in a manner that causes the air stream to swirl in the cyclone chamber to remove dust from the air stream, and an air outlet for emitting the air stream from the cyclone chamber. The entrance device has a control member that is operable to alter the flow passage arrangement such that one or more properties of the air stream in the cyclone chamber are affected by the alteration. The flow passage arrangement has a first path and a second path, and the control member is operable to alter the flow passage arrangement by redirecting the air stream from the first path to the second path.

A method for filtering liquids, especially drinks, is by a filtering device having at least two filter lines. Each filter line has at least one filter unit with at least one preliminary filter and one terminal filter which can be connected to or disconnected from the respective filter line independently of each other and which can also be independently regenerated. The pressure differential of at least one filter unit on each filter line is measured. Once a predefinable threshold value is reached for the pressure differential, the volume flow entering the device is reduced. The associated filter unit is disconnected from the filter line. The reduced volume flow to be filtered is handled by the corresponding filter unit in the other filter line which is fluidically connected to the filter line between the respective preliminary filter and the respective terminal filter. The disconnected filter unit is regenerated. The filter unit which is purified by regeneration is subsequently reconnected to the filter line and the volume flow entering the device is increased once more.
