摘要： An apparatus is provided for sealing a channel fluidly connecting between a high pressure zone and a low pressure zone. The apparatus has at least two brush seal elements provided in the channel in series in a direction from the high pressure zone toward the low pressure zone to define an intermediate zone between the brush seal elements. The intermediate zone is fluidly connected to the low pressure zone through a bypass or passage, allowing a fluid in the intermediate zone to flow in part through the bypass to the low pressure zone.

摘要： A stationary crankshaft, cylindrical rotor, low friction, adjustable timing, pistonless, rotary internal combustion engine. A cylindrical rotor rotates freely about a stator, also cylindrical in shape. A plurality of cavities are circumferentially disposed along the external circumference of the stator and the internal circumference of the rotor that, when rotationally aligned, form combustion chambers. Rotation of the rotor is induced by electrical-spark induced combustion of a fuel/air mixture in the combustion chambers. The combustive exhaust is vented into an exhaust manifold for transport to an exhaust disposal system, such as a catalytic converter. Cooling, fuel pressurization, and electrical generation can be internal to the engine or supplied externally. Engine speed, torque, and other operational requirements can be accommodated by coupling multiple rotational units together and engine vibration can be virtually eliminated by offsetting the combustion chambers on coupled units.

摘要： A gas turbine combustor (26) disposed in a combustion air plenum (65) and a transition piece (28) for the combustor disposed in a separate cooling air plenum (58, 67). The combustion air plenum may receive combustion air (50) from a high-pressure compressor stage (22A). The cooling air plenum may receive cooling air (52) from an intermediate-pressure compressor stage (22B) at lower temperature and pressure than the combustion air. This cools the transition piece using less air than prior systems, thus making the gas turbine engine (20) more efficient and less expensive, because less expensive materials are needed and/or higher combustion temperatures are allowed. The cooling air may exit the cooling air plenum through holes (62) in a downstream portion (61) of the transition piece. An outer wall (72) on the transition piece may provide forced convection along the transition piece.

摘要翻译： 设置在燃烧空气室（65）中的燃气轮机燃烧器（26）和设置在单独的冷却空气室（58,67）中的用于燃烧器的过渡件（28）。 燃烧空气通风室可以从高压压缩机级（22A）接收燃烧空气（50）。 冷却空气压力室可以在比燃烧空气低的温度和压力下从中压压缩机级（22B）接收冷却空气（52）。 这使用比现有系统更少的空气来冷却过渡件，因此，由于需要较便宜的材料和/或允许更高的燃烧温度，因此使燃气涡轮发动机（20）更有效和更便宜。 冷却空气可以通过过渡件的下游部分（61）中的孔（62）离开冷却空气通风室。 过渡件上的外壁（72）可以沿着过渡件提供强制对流。

摘要： A rotary engine includes a rotor having one or more combustion chambers connected to an exhaust passageway extending radially outward from the combustion chamber to an exhaust port adjacent a peripheral edge of the rotor. The exhaust gas is expelled at an angle to thereby generate cause the rotor to rotate. The housing may include reflective surfaces that reflect shockwaves from the exhaust gas back towards vanes on the rotor to thereby capture additional energy from the exhaust gas. The housing may also include stators that capture additional energy from the exhaust gas and rotate the rotor. An intake port fluidly connected to the combustion chamber is aligned with an opening in the housing as the rotor rotates to thereby allow comprised air to flow into the combustion chamber. As the combustion chamber rotates, it is closed off by a closed portion of the housing, fuel is injected, and ignited, to thereby generate exhaust gases and generate power. The engine does not include reciprocating components, and relatively few moving parts are required.

摘要： A method for determining wind turbine location within a wind power plant based on at least one design criteria. A wind turbine layout including at least one wind turbine location is prepared and site conditions at each wind turbine location are determined. One or more plant design metrics are evaluated in response to the site conditions. The plant design metrics are analyzed in response to the site conditions. The method further includes applying constraints to the wind turbine layout and comparing the plant design metrics to the design criteria and constraints. Thereafter, the wind turbine locations are selectively adjusted within the layout in response to the comparing step until a stop criteria is reached.

摘要： A combustor assembly of a turbine engine is provided with a mechanical air regulation unit which selectively varies the amount of air being delivered into a combustion zone of the combustor based upon a pressure of a fuel being supplied to the combustor. A first type of air regulation unit would act to increase the amount of air entering the combustion zone when greater amounts of a high heat value fuel are being delivered to the fuel nozzles of the combustor. A second type of air regulation unit could act to decrease the amount of air entering the combustion zone when greater amounts of a low heat value fuel are being delivered into the combustor through fuel nozzles.
