High-Flow-Capacity Centrifugal Hydrogen Gas Compression Systems, Methods and Components Therefor

Номер: US20120011857A1
Принадлежит: Concepts ETI Inc

Hydrogen gas compression systems that each include a multistage centrifugal compressor in which each stage has an inlet-to-outlet pressure rise ratio of about 1.20 or greater. In one embodiment, the multistage compressor includes six high-speed centrifugal compressors driven at a speed of about 60,000 rpm. The compressor has an output of more than 200,000 kg/day at a pressure of more than 1,000 psig. The compressors for the compression stages are distributed on both sides of a common gear-box, which has gearing that allows axial thrusts from the compressors to be handled effectively. Each stage's compressor has a unique impeller, which is secured to a support shaft using a tension-rod-based attachment system. In another embodiment, the multistage compressor is driven by a combustion turbine and one or more intercoolers are provided between compression stages. Each intercooler is cooled by coolant from an absorption chiller utilizing exhaust gas from the combustion turbine.

Принадлежит: TMEIC Corp

A system and method for controlling gas surges in compressors powered by electric motors. An adjustable speed drive (ASD) incorporating a microprocessor powered by a three-phase source of electricity controls the electric motor which drives the compressor. A bypass valve is inserted between the gas input of the compressor and the gas discharge. The bypass valve opens in response to signals from the ASD which detects gas surges by analyzing a stored surge map which plots a surge line and a related discretionary control line based on the power and speed of the motor. When the operating point of the motor crosses the control line, the ASD causes the bypass valve to open.

An example fan assembly impeller moves air along a secondary flow path when driven by a motor. The motor also drives a fan rotor to move air along a primary flow path of the fan assembly. Air moving along the primary flow path moves in a first direction. Air moving along the secondary flow path moves in a second direction opposite the first direction. An example fan shroud communicates air used to cool a motor into a primary flow path of a fan assembly. The shroud communicates the air into the primary flow path so that the flow of air is at least partially aligned with air moving through the primary flow path of the fan assembly.

At least one energy storage system is provided for receiving and releasing at least a part of the converted kinetic energy from a landing aircraft. The system has a high degree of multiple utilisation and enables, for example, manoeuvring of a landed aircraft on the taxiway independently of the engines, where the aircraft is substantially moved with the braking energy recovered during the landing process. As a result of the main engines no longer being required for manoeuvring, there is a considerable potential for saving energy and the use of motor-operated tow vehicles is eliminated. The apparatus also contributes in the sense of a “green” and economical technology to saving aircraft fuel and better fulfils future requirements of airports, particularly with a view to noise and pollutant reduction. In addition, the invention has as its subject matter a method for recovering braking energy of an aircraft. 1.

Distal bearing support

Номер: US20130303970A1
Принадлежит: Thoratec LLC

In various embodiments, a catheter pump is disclosed herein. The catheter pump can include an elongated catheter body having a distal portion including an expandable cannula having an inlet and an outlet. The expandable cannula can have a delivery profile and an operational profile larger than the delivery profile. An impeller assembly can include an impeller shaft, and an impeller body can include one or more blades. The impeller blades can draw blood into the cannula when rotated. Further, an expandable support can have a mounting portion disposed on the impeller shaft distal of the impeller body and a cannula contact portion for reducing a change in tip gap due to bending of the cannula. The cannula contact portion can be disposed distal of the mounting portion.

Fan

Номер: US20130309065A1
Принадлежит: Dyson Technology Ltd

A fan for generating an air current includes a body having an air inlet, and a nozzle connected to the body. The nozzle includes an interior passage for receiving an air flow from the body and an air outlet from which the air flow is emitted from the fan. The interior passage extends about an opening or bore through which air from outside the nozzle is drawn by air emitted from the air outlet. The body includes a duct having an air inlet and an air outlet, an impeller located within the duct for drawing the air flow through the duct, and a motor for driving the impeller. A noise suppression cavity is located beneath the air inlet of the duct. The cavity has an inlet which is located beneath, and is preferably concentric with, the air inlet of the duct.

Celing mounted ventilation fan with illumination

Номер: US20130315731A1

The ceiling mounted ventilation fan with illumination employs a configuration in which a second opening for guiding light from an illumination unit into the room is formed in a lower part of a main housing and in which a air inlet on a fan casing of a fan unit is provided so as to open toward upper part of the main housing. Thus the air inlet of the fan unit opens in a direction opposite to the second opening communicating with inside of the room. As a result, sounds such as operation noises from the fan unit that are transmitted to outside of the fan unit chiefly through the air inlet can be made to resist being transmitted through the second opening into the room, so that the noises can be reduced.

Motor and fan

Номер: US20130323093A1
Принадлежит: Nidec Corp

A base plate of a motor includes an inner bottom plate portion and an elevated portion. A land portion is arranged on an upper surface of a portion of a circuit board which overlaps with the inner bottom plate portion in a plan view, or on a portion of the circuit board which overlaps with the elevated portion in the plan view. A conducting wire extending from a coil is electrically connected to the land portion. This structure enables the conducting wire to be connected to the land portion on the circuit board without the conducting wire being drawn outward beyond an outer circumferential end portion of the base plate. The axial position of the conducting wire connected to the land portion and the axial position of the base plate at least partially overlap with each other.
