摘要:
A shock absorber is provided with a relief valve (214) within a thrusting piston (20). The relief valve defines a vortex chamber (222) therein and is movable in response to the pressure difference between a high pressure chamber and a lower pressure chamber (22, 24). The valve is movably urged toward an initial position by a set spring (244) which defines the set pressure of the shock absorber.

A system and method are provided in at least one embodiment to filter water through a vortex leading into a disk-pack turbine having an expansion chamber and outlets into a discharge chamber that leads to at least one discharge port. In a further embodiment, the system includes an intake module, a vortex module, a disk-pack turbine module, and a motor for driving the disk-pack turbine. The intake module brings water into the system and routes the water to the vortex module that speeds up the water into a vortex that flows into the disk-pack turbine that discharges into a discharge chamber that leads to at least one discharge port. The disk-pack turbine includes a plurality of disks that are spaced apart forming chambers between the disks that provide at least one passageway between the expansion chamber and the discharge chamber.

A variable flow resistance system for use in a subterranean well can include a flow chamber through which a fluid composition flows, the chamber having at least one inlet, an outlet, and at least one structure spirally oriented relative to the outlet, whereby the structure induces spiral flow of the fluid composition about the outlet. Another variable flow resistance system for use in a subterranean well can include a flow chamber including an outlet, at least one structure which induces spiral flow of a fluid composition about the outlet, and at least one other structure which impedes a change in direction of flow of the fluid composition radially toward the outlet.

Vortex generators are disclosed herein. An example apparatus includes a housing including a surface. The example apparatus also includes a bimorph actuator (300) disposed in the housing. The bimorph actuator includes a first bimorph (302) beam having a first portion fixed relative to the surface. A blade (200) is rotatably coupled to the bimorph actuator (300), and the bimorph actuator (300) is to rotate the blade (200) to extend a portion of the blade (08) through the surface to generate a vortex in a fluid flowing past the surface.

Variable flow resistance systems can be used to regulate fluid flow in various applications, particularly within a subterranean formation. A variable flow resistance system can comprise a chamber configured to induce rotational motion of a fluid flowing therethrough, a fluid inlet coupled to the chamber, and a fluid outlet coupled to the chamber that allows the fluid to exit through at least a sidewall of the chamber. If desired, a plurality of the chambers can be connected in series fluid flow communication with one another.

For the first time, the present invention provides a swirl element (1) for an inlet valve (12; 112) for a brewing vessel (18; 118) for introducing a liquid, especially a mash, a wort, a yeast suspension, a sparge water or the like into the brewing vessel (18, 118), in particular into a mash tun, a mash vat, a combined mash/wort tun, a combined mash/wort/stripping tun, a wort tun (220), a combined whirlpool tun, a whirlpool (320), a lautering device, an evaporating vessel or the like, having at least one flow-directing element (8) by means of which an angular momentum can be imparted to the liquid flowing through the inlet valve (12; 112). The invention also relates to such an inlet valve (12; 112). Furthermore, the invention specifies an evaporating device (20; 120) having a brewing vessel (18; 118) also for evaporating and/or for driving out highly volatile substances or gases, in particular highly volatile flavour substances, dimethyl sulphide, carbon dioxide, oxygen or the like from the aforementioned liquids, wherein the brewing vessel (18; 118) has the swirl element (1) according to the invention and/or the inlet valve (12; 112) admitting the liquid. The invention further relates to a method for evaporating and/or driving out highly volatile substances or gases from the aforementioned liquids in a brewing process. Finally, the present invention relates to the use of the swirl element (1) in a brewing process for evaporating and/or driving out highly volatile substances or gases from liquids when said liquids are introduced into a brewing vessel (18; 118).
