摘要:
A surface coating with heater cable, for the heating of surface structures such as ships' decks, or floors. The coating consists of a foundation layer of a plastic material which forms a base for the heater cable (2), a conducting layer (4) of a plastic material where particles of metal or similar thermically-conducting particles (5) are sealed inside, and a covering layer (6) of a material with significantly lower thermic conductivity, than the conducting layer.
摘要:
A cooling apparatus for cooling a fluid by means of surface water, the cooling apparatus comprising more than one tubes for containing and transporting the fluid in its interior, the exterior of the tube being in operation at least partially submerged in the surface water so as to cool the tube to thereby also cool the fluid, at least one light source for producing light that hinders fouling on at least part of the submerged exterior and at least one optic unit for enhancing the distribution of anti-fouling light on the submerged exterior. By this structure anti-fouling of the cooling apparatus can be assured in an effective manner.

A duct arrangement for an internal combustion engine comprises an exhaust duct, an inlet duct and a cooling air duct. The exhaust duct is contained within the cooling air duct for substantially its whole length and the cooling air duct is contained within the inlet duct for substantially its whole length, so that in use the cooling air duct provides a barrier to limit heat transfer between gas flowing in the exhaust duct and gas flowing in the inlet duct. The invention avoids the need for separate inlet and exhaust ducts with their attendant disadvantages. The separation of the inlet and exhaust ducts by the cooling air duct allows the inlet air to be kept as cool as possible, as is necessary for efficient engine operation.

The propulsion unit comprises a hollow strut having an upper portion (22) with an upper end portion (100) passing through a passage (P1) formed between a first outer bottom (11) and a second inner bottom (12) in a vessel (10). The upper end portion (100) is rotatable supported with a slewing bearing (300) and sealed with a slewing seal (200) towards the vessel (10). The cooling arrangement comprises a cooling air duct system (400, 410, 500, 510), at least one fan (600) and at least one cooling unit (700). The slewing seal (200) comprises an upper slewing seal (210) and a lower slewing seal (220) at a vertical distance (H1) from each other with a space (800) formed between the slewing seals (210, 220). The upper end portion (100) comprises openings (O1) opening into the space (800) between the slewing seals (210, 220). A first cooling air duct (400) is directed to the space (800) between the upper slewing seal (210) and the lower slewing seal (220), whereby cooling air (L1) can be circulated through the first cooling air duct (400) into the space (800) between the upper slewing seal (210) and the lower slewing seal (220) and further through the openings (O1) in the upper end portion (100) to the interior of the strut (21) or return air (L2) can be circulated from the strut (21) in the opposite direction.
摘要:
A keel cooler assembly comprising a coolant tube including a plurality of turbulence enhancers for improving the heat transfer of the coolant without substantially increasing pressure drop of the coolant. In one embodiment, the turbulence enhancers provide a means for generating turbulent wakes in the coolant for disrupting laminar boundary layers for improving heat transfer. In another embodiment, the turbulence enhancers provide a means for generating and propagating turbulent vortexes in the coolant to enhance mixing of the bulk coolant for improving heat transfer. In other embodiments, turbulators, including inserts or impediments, are provided having various configurations and being arranged in predetermined patterns for enhancing turbulence of the coolant for improving keel cooler heat transfer efficiency without substantially increasing pressure drop.
