There is provided a method for analyzing a vibration damping structure in which a tube bundle disposed in a fluid is supported by a vibration damping member disposed in a gap between tubes included in the tube bundle. The method includes a model making step of making a FEM model corresponding to the vibration damping structure, an error setting step of setting an error parameter for a parameter relating to an element included in the FEM model, and an analysis step of performing structural analysis by a finite-element method using the FEM model in which the error parameter is set.

A method for removing a fin fan motor from a heat exchanger includes positioning a motor lifting device beneath the fin fan motor, moving a carriage of the motor lifting device upward in a vertical direction with respect to a base member of the motor lifting device along a vertical guide column, moving one or more vertical support members into a locked position, the one or more vertical support members spaced apart from the vertical guide column and extending between the carriage and the base member, where the one or more vertical support members restrict vertical movement of the carriage with respect to the base member in the locked position, and moving the fin fan motor to the carriage of the motor lifting device.

A heat-exchange apparatus and a mounting component set for installation into storage tanks. The heat-exchange apparatus comprises a heat-exchanging component, a coupling manifold configured to engage with the heat-exchanging component, and a hollow, elongate, flow-directing element that delivers fluid to the heat-exchanging component. The mounting component set comprises an inner flange for engaging the inner wall of the storage tank, an outer flange for engaging the outer wall of the storage tank, and at least one gasket cooperable with one of the flanges. The heat-exchange apparatus sealably engages the outer flange such that the heat-exchanging component extends into the interior of the tank, and the coupling manifold is interconnectable to an external supply of heat-exchange fluid.

An electrically driven pump is provided, which includes an impeller. The impeller includes an upper plate, blades and a lower plate. The blades are formed on a lower surface of the upper plate, the blades include first blades and second blades, and a length of each of the first blades is greater than a length of each of the second blades. The first blades are uniformly distributed along a circumference of the upper plate. The first blades and the second blades are distributed alternately in the circumferential direction. The first blades each include a first head portion and a first tail portion, the second blade includes a second head portion and a second tail portion, and the first tail portion and the second tail portion are aligned with outer edge of the upper plate. The impeller arranged in such manner facilitates the improvement of hydraulic efficiency and lift.
