| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 7246658 | Method and apparatus for efficient heat exchange in an aircraft or other vehicle A heat exchanger extracts heat from a two-phase fluid coolant so that the coolant changes from a vapor state to a liquid state. Two valves have respective inlets which communicate with the coolant in the heat exchanger, and which are physically spaced from each othe... | 07/24/2007 |
| 7073342 | Constant temperature liquid circulating apparatus The whole main tank for housing the constant temperature liquid the temperature of which is adjusted by a temperature adjusting device is supported in a sub tank with a gap as a heat insulating layer around the main tank. A liquid level regulating mechanism supplies... | 07/11/2006 |
| 6269873 | Method for controlling heat exchange in a nuclear reactor A method for controlling heat exchange in a nuclear reactor. The reactor contains at least one thermal valve, at least one heat exchanger having a coolant flowing therein, with the heat exchanger being immersed in a pool containing a fluid. The heat excha... | 08/07/2001 |
| 6195406 | Spray lines for a pressurizer of a pressured water reactor A pressurizer includes a casing in which at least one spray line ends. The spray line is guided through a wall in a lower region of the casing and is disposed in such a way as to run upward inside the casing. The spray line ends at its geodetically highes... | 02/27/2001 |
| 6116028 | Technique for maintaining proper vapor temperature at the super heater/reheater inlet in a Kalina cycle power generation system A method of operating a power generation system is provided. The system includes a turbine, a distiller/condenser, a boiler, and a superheater. The turbine expands a superheated multicomponent working fluid to produce power. The distiller/condenser transf... | 09/12/2000 |
| 6062825 | Air compressor aftercooler with automatic heated drain valve and start-up shut-off A water release system includes a compact aftercooler connected to receive hot, moisture laden compressed air from a compressor having a load cycle under control of a governor. A water release valve is connected between a header of the aftercooler and an ... | 05/16/2000 |
| 5971063 | Vapor condenser A vapor condenser includes a conduit defining a passage for guidingly communicating a vapor stream in a vapor flow direction from an inlet at a first location to a second location, a first heat exchanger between the first and second locations for open hea... | 10/26/1999 |
