Title: Steam generator heating surface comprising a multitude of approximately parallel heating tubes through which a cooling agent passes
Inventor: MENGEL ANDREAS
IPC: F28G5/00
Filed: 2002-06-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a heating surface of a steam generator comprising a multitude of approximately parallel heating tubes (4) through which a cooling agent passes. Said heating tubes are arranged in the flow channel of the steam generator by means of mountings (1). The aim of the invention is to embody the heating surfaces of the steam generator in such a way as to prevent the continuous build-up of deposits in the form of slagging, and the disadvantages associated therewith, in the area through which the flue gases pass. To achieve this, the heating surface tubes (4) are surrounded by protective sleeves (7) which rest loosely on the surface of the heating surface tubes between the mountings (1) thereof. The ends of the protective sleeves (7) exhibit an expansion distance (8) to the mountings of the heating surface tubes (4). The heat expansion coefficient of the material forming the protective sleeves is higher than that of the material forming the heating surface tubes (4).

Abstract: A multi-stage centrifugal compressor with an integral high-speed motor for compressing air has a variable speed permanent magnet motor having electronically commutated stator coils surrounding a rotor carrying permanent magnets, wherein there is a gap between the coils and the rotor. The rotor has a magnetic steel rotor shaft rotatably supported at each end by pressurized oil lubricated hydrodynamic bearings. The stator coils have a plurality of stator wires extending longitudinally along the stator and continuing around the ends of the stator to define end turns. The compressor also has a plurality of compressor impellers mounted to turn with the rotor shaft and cooler for cooling the bearings, rotor and stator coils comprising a pump for introducing cooled oil into the bearings, said bearing configured so that oil exiting from the bearings splashes over the supported ends of the shaft and splashes over the end turns of the stator coils. There is a passageway through the stator for introducing pressurized air within a gap between the stator and the rotor during start up to maintain a positive pressure within the gap thereby displacing oil from the gap.

Abstract: A fruit juicer includes an additional switch that determines the speed at which the fruit juicer, i.e., the element that receives the fruit to be squeezed out, revolves. A button, disposed on the outer wall of the housing, actuates a microcontroller such that more power is supplied to the electric motor to make it revolve at a higher speed. The inventive fruit juicer, therefore, allows the juice to be squeezed out from the pulp already removed from the fruit.

Abstract: A packaging structure of a liquid container,
which is provided with a liquid containing portion
for containing liquid and a liquid supply port for
supplying liquid, comprises a covering member (103) for
covering the liquid supply port. For this packaging
structure, the covering member is a circular member
formed by a first part (103a) and a second part (103b) to cover the
outer circumference of the liquid container, and the
first part is provided with means for sealing the
liquid supply port, and the second part is made
detachable from the first part, and the circular form
of the covering member is broken by the detachment of
the second part. With the packaging structure thus
arranged, when the user detaches the first part from
the second part of the covering member, the covering
member is broken to separate the first part and the
second part, thus unsealing the liquid supply port.
Therefore, unsealing is possible at a constant
impetus irrespective of the impetus of unsealing
carried out by each individual user. Also, the
unsealing impetus can be controlled by the strength
of material used for the first part to make the set
up of the prevention of liquid splash possible at the
time of unsealing.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a free-standing substrate made of a semiconductor material. A first assembly is provided and it includes a relatively thinner nucleation layer of a first material, a support of a second material, and a removable bonding interface defined between facing surfaces of the nucleation layer and support. A substrate of a relatively thicker layer of a third material is grown, by epitaxy on the nucleation layer, to form a second assembly with the substrate attaining a sufficient thickness to be free-standing. The third material is preferably a monocrystalline material. Also, the removable character of the bonding interface is preserved with at least the substrate being heated to an epitaxial growth temperature. The coefficients of thermal expansion of the second and third materials are selected to be different from each other by a thermal expansion differential, determined as a function of the epitaxial growth temperature or subsequent application of external mechanical stresses, such that, as the second assembly cools from the epitaxial growth temperature, stresses are induced in the removable bonding interface to facilitate detachment of the nucleation layer from the substrate.
