| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 4106559 | Tube side flow control device for moisture separator reheaters A control device regulating flow rate of a two-phase mixture of steam and water through a vent conduit in fluid communication with the exit from the fourth pass of a four-pass heat exchanger and a low pressure source. The heat exchanger conducts a first f... | 08/15/1978 |
| 4069670 | Hot gas engine heater head In a heater head for a hot gas engine the connection between the regenerator tops and the cylinder tops consists of pipes of equal shape and dimensions. The pipes are shaped partly as involutes on a cone partly as straight tubes on a cylinder surface to e... | 01/24/1978 |
| 4056143 | Heat exchange apparatus A heat exchanger for central heating in which water to be heated passes through a circular array of parallel tubes. Hot gas passes over the outside of the tubes and heats the water up. Metal wire interlaces the tubes and helps conduction heat from the gas... | 11/01/1977 |
| 4047562 | Heat exchanger utilizing a vaporized heat-containing medium The end of the heat exchanger into which the vaporized heat-containing medium enters is divided into at least three chambers by partitions. The U-shaped tubes which pass the heat-containing medium into a heat exchange relation with a medium to be heated c... | 09/13/1977 |
| 4018209 | Air heater An air heater comprising a pipe assembly having an intake opening and an outlet opening which is horizontally supported by a stand and protected by a removable, open-topped sleeving. The pipe assembly is a series of internally interconnected pipes which p... | 04/19/1977 |
| 4002198 | Finned tube heat exchanger used as a desublimator for isolating sublimation products, especially phthalic anhydride, from reaction gases A finned tube heat exchanger for isolating sublimates, especially phthalic anhydride, in which the finned tubes arranged in parallel alongside one another and above one another and connected by headers and tube bends permit flow through them successively ... | 01/11/1977 |
| 3976127 | Heat exchanger assemblies A heat exchanger comprising an A or V frame with finned tubes running parallel with the apex of the V in which the apex of the frame is filled with tubes rather than being blanked off thus increasing the available heat-exchange area. Also an assembly of s... | 08/24/1976 |
| 3942589 | Shell and tube heat exchanger An improved shell and tube heat exchanger is described wherein power steam for driving a turbine is reheated between successive stages of the turbine. The power steam passing through the shell is heated by heating steam passing through heating tubes, the ... | 03/09/1976 |
| 3939901 | Method and apparatus for cooling and deaerating internal combustion engine coolant An internal combustion engine cooling system is disclosed which utilizes a coolant having a greater viscosity and film strength than water. Heat is transferred from the coolant as it flows through a radiator assembly. The coolant is directed through multi... | 02/24/1976 |
