摘要:
An immersion lithographic apparatus is described in which a two-phase flow is separated into liquid-rich and gas-rich flows by causing the liquid-rich flow to preferentially flow along a surface.

A cyclone type liquid-vapor separator includes a chamber including: an internal space wherein the treatment liquid introduced into the internal space is depressurized and evaporated; a vapor outlet formed on a top of the chamber and through which vapors generated through the evaporation is discharged; and a concentrated liquid outlet formed on a bottom of the chamber and through which the concentrated treatment liquid is discharged; an inlet part coupled to a side surface of the chamber in a tangent line direction of an inner peripheral surface of the chamber, the treatment liquid introduced into the chamber is turned in the form of vortexes along the inner peripheral surface of the chamber; and at least one partition wall disposed in an area between the inlet part and the vapor outlet of the internal space of the chamber and protruding from the inner peripheral wall of the chamber to prevent mist contained in the vapors from moving upwardly.

Apparatus for the ohmic-heating of a particulate liquid, including degassing structure for degassing the liquid, which is turn includes a vacuum tank and at least one sprayer, in order to carry out a method that may include degassing the liquid by spraying it onto a vertical or sloping internal wall of a vacuum tank, in such a way that a vertical cylindrical inner region of the vacuum tank that is away from said wall and reaches the top region of the vacuum tank is substantially free of liquid. The apparatus also includes a conduit for passing the degassed liquid through an ohmic-heating unit, a pump located between the vacuum tank and the ohmic-heating unit, a safety valve arranged in parallel with the pump and a back-pressure valve located after the ohmic-heating unit.

[PROBLEMS] To increase the rate of gas transfer in gas exchangers.[MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A gas exchange chip comprises substrates (1,2); two flow channels (3,4) formed in the substrates (1,2) and each having an inlet port and an outlet port; and multiple grooves (9) interlinking the flow channels (3,4). The grooves (9) have the size of their sectional area predetermined and have at least a part of the internal surface thereof rendered hydrophobic so as to permit the transfer of gas component while inhibiting any liquid passage. A sample water containing carbon dioxide is caused to flow through one of the flow channels (3) while pure water is caused to flow through the other flow channel (4) to thereby transfer the carbon dioxide contained in the sample water into the pure water.

A configuration of a blood microtubular filter/dialyzer used in many kinds of renal replacement therapy systems can provide a highly effective mechanism for removing air from the blood circuit of such systems. Air is removed from an outlet header space of the filter avoiding the need for a bubble trap or settling chamber such as a drip chamber.

摘要:
A configuration of a blood microtubular filter/dializer used in many kinds of renal replacement therapy systems can provide highly a effective mechanism for removing air from the blood circuit of such systems. In embodiments, for example, the invention takes advantage of the slow flow rate that usually occurs where blood exits the microtubules into a header area of the filter to provide a settling area and an auxiliary port with a multi-way valve allowing gas to be drawn out from the header and for medicaments to be injected into said header.
摘要:
This disclosure relates to a method for deaerating a liquid layer such as a coating solution using electrostatic forces. A flow of charged particles is created above and moved towards a low conductivity liquid layer. The flow of charged particles causes localized thinning of the liquid layer which facilitates the removal of bubbles of entrained gas from the liquid by bringing those bubbles closer to the exposed surface of the liquid and rupturing them at that surface. This electrostatic deaeration technique is combined with other non-electrostatic liquid layer thinning techniques or degassing techniques to further facilitate removal of bubbles from the liquid in preparation of further processing of the liquid. The liquid layer may be stationary or flowing with respect to the application of charge particles.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for removing air from a liquid. The invention provides a heater for heating the liquid so as to reduce the ability of the liquid to retain air, a tank for storing an accumulation of the liquid which has been deaerated, and a means for delivery of the heated liquid into the tank. The delivery means comprises a vertical pipe exposing the hot liquid to an ambiance so that a substantial number of discrete bubbles in the heated liquid will accelerate toward and burst upon contact with the ambiance. The delivery means further includes a generally conically shaped member for cascading the heated liquid in the form of a film so that the film of liquid is exposed to the ambiance to substantially rid the liquid of dissolved air. The invention further provides, in the tank, means for cooling the accumulation of deaerated liquid in such a way that the surface of the liquid in the tank is at a substantially higher temperature than the remainder of the liquid in the tank. The hotter surface liquid functions as a barrier to prevent reaerating of the liquid in the tank.
