摘要: A reactor and process for the production of bio-diesel. The reactor includes one or more coiled reaction lines. The lines are positioned within a tank containing a heat transfer media such as molten salt, maintained at about 750° F. A pump circulates the media within the tank. An emulsion of alcohol; refined feed stock, including glycerides and/or fatty acids; and preferably water is pumped through the reaction lines at temperatures and pressures sufficient to maintain the alcohol in a super-critical state. The curvature of the coils, pump pulsing, and the flow rate of the emulsion keep the emulsion in a turbulent state while in the reactor, ensuring thorough mixing of the alcohol and feed stock. The alcohol reacts with the glycerides and fatty acids to form bio-diesel. The reaction is fast, efficient with regard to energy input and waste generation, and requires minimal alcohol.

摘要: A hot water appliance includes a housing defining an inner space; a heat source arranged in the inner space of the housing and comprising at least one burner; a flue gas discharge arranged in the inner space of the housing and configured to discharge combustion gases of the at least one burner therethrough; and a heat exchanger arranged in the inner space of the housing and associated with the flue gas discharge. The combustion gases of the at least one burner form a first heat exchanging fluid of the heat exchanger associated with the flue gas discharge. A flue gas discharge for a hot water appliance and a method for heating a fluid are also described.

摘要: A heat exchanger which may be used in an engine, such as a vehicle engine for an aircraft or orbital launch vehicle. is provided. The heat exchanger may be configured as generally drum-shaped with a multitude of spiral sections, each containing numerous small diameter tubes. The spiral sections may spiral inside one another. The heat exchanger may include a support structure with a plurality of mutually axially spaced hoop supports, and may incorporate an intermediate header. The heat exchanger may incorporate recycling of methanol or other antifreeze used to prevent blocking of the heat exchanger due to frost or ice formation.

摘要: A drying apparatus includes a compartment for containing objects to be dried, a closed-loop air pathway and a regeneration heat exchanger. The closed-loop air pathway includes a cooling element and a heating element, and is configured to extract from the compartment air that includes moisture in the form of vapor, to evacuate heat energy from the extracted air to an external fluid flow by cooling using the cooling element so as to remove at least some of the moisture from the air, to reheat the air using the heating element, and to re-introduce the reheated air into the compartment. The regeneration heat exchanger is inserted in the closed-loop air pathway and is configured to transfer heat from the air extracted from the compartment to the air exiting the cooling element in the closed-loop air pathway.

摘要: A gearbox oil cooling assembly for a gearbox driving a drive shaft having a drive shaft coupling. The assembly includes a heat exchanger to receive and cool an oil from the gearbox and having an inlet. Also included is an impeller axially disposed between the heat exchanger and the drive shaft coupling, wherein the impeller is operatively coupled to, and rotated by, the drive shaft operatively coupled to the drive shaft coupling. Further included is an exhaust duct operatively coupled to the heat exchanger and disposed radially outwardly around the impeller and defining an airflow pathway through which air passes through the inlet, the impeller and through the exhaust duct according to the rotation of the impeller to cool the oil in the heat exchanger.

摘要: A heat exchanger includes a cooling air conduit having multiple baffles, a hot air conduit having multiple passes through the cooling air conduit and forming multiple intersections with the baffles, and multiple perforations extending through the baffles. A cooling air flow passes through the baffles, rather than strictly between the baffles, and improves heat-transfer characteristics of the heat exchanger.
