Cooling device for additive injection valve
10753253 · 2020-08-25 · ·

A cooling device configured to cool, using a coolant, an injection valve that injects an additive includes a rotary member surrounding an outer periphery of the injection valve and extending along the injection valve. The rotary member is supported to be rotatable around the injection valve. A clearance between an outer peripheral surface of the injection valve and an inner peripheral surface of the rotary member defines a passage through which the coolant flows. The rotary member has a rotation imparting part that causes the rotary member to rotate about the injection valve in response to a flow of the coolant.

Muffler valve device for vehicle

A muffler valve device for a vehicle may include a chamber fixed at a surface of the wall, a guide rod provided in the chamber and attached at the surface of the wall, a fixing member attached at one end portion of the guide rod and fixing the chamber, a valve disposed slidably on the guide rod between the surface of the wall and the fixing member, and an elastic member located between the valve and the fixing member to provide an elastic force to the valve.

Systems for reducing startup emissions in power plant including gas turbine

Embodiments of emission reduction system including various embodiments of an emission filters for a power plant including a gas turbine are disclosed. The system includes: an emission filter; and a retraction system operably coupled to an exhaust passage of the gas turbine. The exhaust passage defines an exhaust path of exhaust from the gas turbine. The retraction system selectively moves the emission filter between a first location within the exhaust path and a second location out of the exhaust path. In a combined cycle power plant, the first location is upstream of a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). The systems and filters described allow for temporary positioning of emission filter(s) just downstream of a gas turbine exhaust outlet, or upstream of an HRSG, where provided, for emission reduction at low loads or startup conditions, and removal of the emission filter(s) once operations move to higher loads.
