73 results about "Plenum space" patented technology

A plenum space is a part of a building that can facilitate air circulation for heating and air conditioning systems, by providing pathways for either heated/conditioned or return airflows, usually at greater than atmospheric pressure. Space between the structural ceiling and the dropped ceiling or under a raised floor is typically considered plenum; however, some drop-ceiling designs create a tight seal that does not allow for airflow and therefore may not be considered a plenum air-handling space.

A resiliently compressible gasket is disposed at the interface between the grid support member and peripheral edge of the panel. The gasket may be fixedly attached to the panel peripheral edge in the factory under controlled conditions before shipment to the ceiling installation site. In one embodiment, the gasket may be adhesively attached to the panel. Mounting the ceiling panel on the grid support member compresses the gasket to preferably form a minimally visible air leakage resistant seal between the air plenum space above the ceiling panels and the occupied space below. This retards air exchange between the spaces which enhances heating / cooling efficiency, noise reduction and allows formation of pressurized clean rooms.

A method for reducing the temperature difference of the stator of a long-core permanent magnet wind turbine at high altitude

The present invention discloses a method for reducing the temperature difference of the stator of a long-core permanent magnet wind turbine at high altitude, and relates to the technical field of ventilation and cooling of permanent magnet direct-drive wind turbines. In the present invention, cooling air enters an annular space from an air inlet duct to cool the non-driving end of the stator coil. At the same time, cooling air enters an air inlet cavity from the annular space, and the cooling air flows from the air inlet cavity to radial ventilation channels distributed circumferentially on the corresponding stator core, and enters an air gap. The cooling air flows from the air gap to an air outlet cavity, which corresponds to radial ventilation channels distributed circumferentially on the stator core, and then enters the air outlet cavity, and is discharged from a first air outlet duct installed on the ventilation space at the driving end. Each section of the stator core and the stator coil at each section of the stator core obtain more sufficient cooling air, thereby improving the cooling effect, reducing the stator temperature difference, and improving the cooling air utilization efficiency, thereby adapting to the unfavorable conditions of lower air density in high altitude areas.
