Abstract: A data center cooling system configured to cool one or more components of a data center thereby enabling a data center to be maintained at a higher overall temperature while still providing sufficient cooling to the components housed in the data center is disclosed. By maintaining the data center at a higher overall temperature, significant operational costs are realized due to savings in power costs. The data center cooling system may include one or more turbo-expanders having a rotary turbine positioned within a turbo-expander housing in which compressed air expands and drives the rotary turbine. The cooled expanded air is heated passing through a thermal transfer system that pulls heat from the data center component. The air is further heated passing through a brake system that generates heat by applying resistance to a shaft coupled to the rotary turbine. The heated air is exhausted outside of the data center.

Abstract: An electrical power generation system for a vehicle includes a prime mover, an electrical generator to generate electrical power and a gear box operably connected to the prime mover and the electrical generator to transfer rotational energy from the prime mover to the electrical generator. A braking mechanism is located at the gear box to selectably transfer rotational energy from the prime mover to the electrical generator for selective generation of electrical power. A method of electrical power generation for a vehicle includes generating rotational energy at a prime mover, transferring the rotational energy to an electrical power generator, generating electrical power via the rotational energy transfer to the electrical power generator, and periodically stopping and/or starting the transfer of rotational energy from the prime mover to the electrical power generator via a braking mechanism in operable communication with the electrical power generator.

Abstract: A steam turbine includes a turbine body; a steam flow passage; a regulating valve which regulates opening and closing of the steam flow passage with a linear motion; a switching drive mechanism which drives the regulating valve; an electronic governor which controls at least the switching drive mechanism; and a controller unit. The switching drive mechanism has an electric motor which rotates when supplied with power, a conversion mechanism which converts a rotary motion of the electric motor into a linear motion of the regulating valve, and a brake which brakes the rotary motion of the electric motor. At least one of the controller unit and the electronic governor performs control such that the brake is actuated and the position of the regulating valve is maintained when at least one of the electric motor and the controller unit breaks down.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for braking a rotor of a turbine engine, comprising a turning gear, with a drive supplied from an energy source, having an input shaft to which the rotor may be coupled, whereby, during a cooling phase for the turbine, the rotor may be driven by the drive using the coupled input shaft. According to the invention, a method for braking a rotor of a turbine engine can be achieved, in which the rotation of a rotor, caused by the airflow through the turbine, is slowed until the rotor stops, whereby after the end of the cooling phase, the drive drives the rotor in the reverse sense by means of the input shaft in order to brake the same.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling rotating bladed machinery by using a source of pressurized gas is disclosed. The source of pressurized gas, such as air, imparts braking torque on a turbomachinery component through the use of one or more impinging orifices or jets. The orientation of the jets is such that the transfer of momentum from the pressurized gas results in a force substantially opposite the direction of rotation of the turbomachinery component. This transfer of momentum from the pressurized gas allows for a controlling torque to be applied to the turbomachinery component without the need of mechanical and/or electrical devices applying torque to the rotating shaft.
