Abstract: A system (15) regulates a temperature of fluid in a sector of a fluid distribution network, including a feed line (11) transporting fluid from a thermal energy source (3) to a thermal energy consumer (7) within the sector and a return line (13) transporting fluid back. A bypass line (17) connects the return line to the feed line, mixing fluid from the return line into the feed line. A pump is at the bypass line. A temperature sensor determines a temperature of fluid in the feed line downstream of the bypass line. A pressure sensor determines an uncontrolled pressure difference between the feed line and the return line, or an uncontrolled pressure difference correlated therewith. A control unit controls the speed of the pump with a closed-loop control for achieving a target feed line temperature based on the determined temperature, and a feed-forward control compensating fluctuations of the pressure difference.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing an object (24) by joining a first component (25) and a second component (26). The first component comprises metal powder with a first alloy composition and a first soluble binder, and the second component comprises metal powder with a second alloy composition and a second soluble binder. They may further comprise ceramic powder. At least one of the surfaces to be joined is dissolved before they are brought in contact, or a mixture of metal powder with a third alloy composition and a dissolved third binder is arranged there between. The chemical differences between the first, second, and third alloy compositions are within predetermined limits. The components are sintered or oxidized together whereby it is possible to obtain an object wherein the transitions between the material phases from the joined components are close to inconspicuous when analysed with scanning electron microscopy.

Abstract: A fluid flow regulation assembly (1) includes: movable parts, for being actively mechanically driven, including at least one of a fluid flow regulating body for regulating a fluid flow and a rotor of a motor for driving the regulating body; and power electronics for controlling the motor. The movable parts and/or the power electronics are a source of vibration. Static parts are exposed to traveling vibrations originating from the source of vibration and include at least one of the group: a pump housing (3), a valve housing, a motor housing (5), a pump base and an electronics housing (7). The static parts include a structural element (11) with at least one vibration attenuation section (9) for attenuating vibrations: that originate from the source of vibration; travel along the structural element and have a vibration frequency above a pre-determined minimum vibration frequency (fmin).

Abstract: A centrifugal pump assembly includes a pump head, a pump base defining a pump inlet and a pump outlet, a fluid outlet channel from the pump head to the pump outlet, impellers, defining an impeller fluid channel between an impeller inlet and outlet and connected with one of rotor shaft segments including a positive fit coupling for torque transfer between at least two rotor shaft segments, and one or more pump stage housing segments arranged between the pump base and the pump head. The pump stage housing segments have a structure defining a guide passage for receiving pumped fluid from the impeller outlet of the impellers and for guiding pumped fluid to the impeller inlet of another one of the impellers or to the pump head. The pump stage housing segments each have a structure defining at least a part of a wall section of the fluid outlet channel.

Abstract: A centrifugal pump assembly includes an electrical drive motor (2), with at least one impeller (18) which is driven by the motor and a pump casing (6) which surrounds the impeller (18) and which includes at least one suction connection (20) and at least two delivery connections (22, 24). A rotatable valve element (30, 30′, 30″) is arranged in the pump casing (6). The valve element is movable between at least two switching positions, in which the flow paths through the delivery connections (22, 24) are opened to a different extent. The valve element (30, 30′, 30″) includes an annular wall (32) which surrounds the impeller (18) and in which at least one switching opening (48) is formed. The valve element (30, 30′, 30″) is rotatably mounted about a rotation axis (X), which is centric to the annular wall (32), inside of the pump casing (6).

Abstract: A control system (15) controls a water supply from at least two separate input lines (3i-k) into a sector (1) of a water supply network. The control system (15) is configured to receive input flow information indicative of the water input flow (qi-k) through each of the input lines (3i-k). The control system (15) is configured to receive input pressure information indicative of the input pressure (pi) in at least one (3i) of the input lines (3i-k). The control system (15) is configured to receive pressure information indicative of at least one pressure value (pcri,m,n) determined by a pressure sensor (7m,n) within the sector (1). The control system (15) is configured to control the input pressure (pi) by controlling at least a pressure regulating system (13i) at an input line (3i) based on the input flow information from all input lines (3i-k) and based on the sector pressure information.

Abstract: An electric pump drive motor three-phase stator assembly (1) includes three sets of stator segments (Si,j), configured in a ring about a stator axis (R). Each set includes n≥2 stator segments arranged in an n-fold rotational symmetry about the stator axis. Each stator segment includes a coil (3) having a first coil wire end and a second coil wire end. A plurality of 3n−3 connection wires (Wi,k) connect coils of a respective set of stator segments in series. A first and a second interposed stator segment are arranged in circumferential direction between the two connected coils of the respective set of stator segments. 3n−5 of the connection wires span across the first interposed stator segment at a distance (r1) to the stator axis and across the second interposed stator segment at a second distance (r2) to the stator axis (R). The second distance is larger than the first distance.

Abstract: A control system suppresses biological growth, scale formation and/or corrosion in a recirculating evaporative cooling facility (1). The control system is configured to: monitor a value (C) from at least one sensor (19a-l). The value is indicative of an ion concentration in a cooling liquid of the recirculating evaporative cooling facility (1). The control system controls at least one flow regulation device (21, 23) for regulating the hydraulic operation of at least one de-ionising unit (13) of the recirculating evaporative cooling facility (1). The control system is configured to control at least one parameter of hydraulic operation of the at least one de-ionising unit (13) based on an adaptive target water saving as long as the monitored value (C) does not pass a pre-determined threshold.
