Abstract:
The present invention relates to a fluid processing unit through which fluid may flow while being processed. The fluid processing unit comprises a casing and one or more cassettes each comprising an outer housing being arranged so that the outer housing forms at least a part of the casing and each comprising a flow passage through the cassette. At least one of the cassettes comprises at least one fluid interaction component or is adapted to receive at least one fluid interaction component. The fluid processing unit comprises total pressure increasing means for at least partially overcoming the pressure loss due to the fluid flowing through the unit, the total pressure increasing means and one, more or all of the one or more fluid interaction components being encapsulated by the casing. The invention further relates to a cassette comprising an outer housing being arranged so that the outer housing forms at least a part of a casing of a fluid processing unit when at least two cassettes are combined to form at least a part of the fluid processing unit, the cassette further comprising a flow passage through the cassette and the cassette further comprises or is adapted to receive at least one fluid interaction component. The invention further relates to a method for providing an interaction between a fluid and an interaction component, the method comprising feeding fluid to a fluid processing unit as described above.
Abstract:
The method for activating an asynchronous motor comprising at least two windings is provided, in order, for the purpose of a change in the rotational speed, to connect a first winding and at least one second winding by way of at least two electronic switches. On switching, both switches are opened for one or more time intervals in order to avoid current peaks.
Abstract:
A method for determining the functional relationship of several pumps which are controllable in their rotational speed, in a hydraulic installation. At least one pump is activated with a changed rotational speed, and at least one functional relationship of the installation is determined from the hydraulic reactions. With a suitable selection of the control and detection of the hydraulic changes, one may determine the functional relationship of the complete installation.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a forward osmosis (FO) device (10) with a semipermeable membrane (5, 5a) capable of performing forward osmosis between a first (F1) and a second fluid (F2). In a first fluid confinement (4a), a first swirl generator (7a) is positioned and in a second fluid confinement (4b) positioned on the other second side of the membrane, a second swirl generator (7b) is positioned. The swirl generators are arranged to create a circular flow pattern (S2, S3) for the first and the second fluid, respectively, wherein the first (7a) and second (7b) swirl generator, upon engagement, are arranged to create a circular flow pattern for the first and the second fluid, respectively, by rotating motion (RA1, RA2). The invention is advantageous by obtaining FO device that is capable of reducing the concentration polarisation (CP) near the membrane by creating a cross flow velocity over the membrane and facilitate control of the cross flow velocity independent of the through flow of the membrane. The external concentration polarization can thereby be controlled and further reduced.
Abstract:
A flow production unit for submerged operation in a fluid includes an impeller and a magnet gear having an input side and an output side, each side having an arrangement of magnetic poles, wherein the arrangements of magnetic poles are coupled in movement to one another by way of magnetic fields. A transmission ratio exists between an input side and output side of the magnet gear. The output side of the magnet gear is coupled in movement to the impeller for drive thereof. The electric motor for drive of the magnet gear is coupled in movement to its input side. An encapsulation is present, which commonly encapsulates the electric motor and the arrangement of magnetic poles of the input side of the magnet gear together in a fluid-tight manner, and separates them from the output side of the magnet gear.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a bearing arrangement of a shaft (2), with which an annular bearing sleeve (4) is applied onto the shaft (2), wherein the shaft (2) at least in the axial region in which the bearing sleeve (4) is arranged, comprises a profiling extending parallel to its longitudinal axis (X), into which profiling a corresponding engagement element (12) on the inner periphery of the bearing element (4) engages with a positive fit, wherein at least one engagement element (12) extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis (X) of the shaft (2) only over a part of the length of the bearing sleeve (4).
Abstract:
A bearing arrangement of a shaft (2) is provided, with which an annular bearing sleeve (4) is applied onto the shaft (2). The bearing sleeve (4), for axial fixation, bears with at least one axial end (8, 10) on a retaining sleeve (6) applied onto the shaft (2). The retaining sleeve (6), at least at one axial end (15, 16), has a greater wall thickness than in its axial middle region (18).
Abstract:
A flow-routing component of a pump is composed of at least two parts, a first part (2) of the component being manufactured by metal-powder injection molding, and a second part (4) of the component being manufactured from sheet metal. A pump assembly is also provided having such a flow-routing component.
Abstract:
A pump assembly has a housing formed of at least two metallic housing parts (2) and at least one diffuser (12) arranged in the housing, wherein the diffuser (12) is fixed between the two housing parts in the axial direction, and the two housing parts (2) are directly or indirectly in metallic contact with one another, in a manner such that a force transmission in the axial direction between the housing parts (2) is effected via elements of metal.
