An annular heat exchanger with a longitudinal axis for a turbomachine, intended for example to be supported by an annular shell of a casing of the turbomachine, includes a one-piece annular part having a first fluidic circuit having at least one first conduit and at least one second conduit extending annularly and a second fluidic circuit having at least one first conduit and at least one second conduit extending annularly and arranged in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction on either side of the first conduit and second conduit of the first circuit.

An exhaust heat recovery boiler includes: a duct casing in which exhaust gas flows; a tubular extending portion extending upward from the duct casing; a heat exchanger tube located in the duct casing; a hammering rod connected to the heat exchanger tube in the duct casing and passing through an inside of the extending portion, the hammering rod including an upper part projecting to an outside of the extending portion; and an annular sleeve attached to the upper part of the hammering rod through a packing. The extending portion includes an upper flat surface which is located at an upper end of the extending portion, realizes a seal between the upper flat surface and a lower surface of the sleeve, and is annular and flat.

A seal configured for use in a chiller refrigeration system is provided including a first flange and a second flange. The first flange and the second flange are coaxially aligned and in direct contact. The second flange includes at least one groove within which a first sealing mechanism and a second sealing mechanism are positioned. The first sealing mechanism and the second sealing mechanism are separated by a distance such that a chamber configured to receive a pressurized gas is formed between the first and second sealing mechanisms.

A heat exchanger includes a housing with an inlet port, an outlet port, an interior facing surface defining a coolant channel, a first opening surrounded by an exterior facing surface, and a second opening defined by a first inner diameter. A tube assembly defines a plurality of exhaust gas flow channels and a plurality of coolant cross channels within the housing. A first diffuser directs a first fluid into the tube assembly and is joined to a first header plate, which separates the first fluid from a second fluid within the coolant channel. A second diffuser directs the first fluid out of the tube assembly. The second diffuser is located within the second opening and sealed to the second opening by seals around the second diffuser.

The invention relates to an indirect-type air cooler by way of which compressed charge air for an internal-combustion engine is cooled by means of a liquid, wherein the air cooler is constructed from stacked pairs of plates having fins which are disposed therebetween, and the brazed stack is disposed in a housing into which the charge air flows, flows through the fins and exits the housing again. The charge air exchanges heat with the liquid which flows in the plate pairs and which is introducible into the plate pairs via at least one inlet and via inlet-side plate openings which are flush in the stack and is dischargeable via at least one outlet by means of flush outlet-side plate openings. In order to further improve the performance potential of the air cooler, at least one venting element which extends to the exterior through an opening of the housing is connected to a liquid space within the stack.

A heat exchanger assembly includes first and second tanks having tube side walls, reservoirs formed therein, and apertures extending through the tube side walls. A flow tube having a plurality of fins on an exterior surface thereof, a first end, and a second end, the first end being received in an aperture of the first tank. A first seal is positioned between the flow tube and the first aperture. A retainer is positioned between the flow tube and the first aperture and between the first seal and the fins on the tube. A mounting block is positioned between the first tank and the fins on the tube, and is secured to the first tank. A second seal is positioned between the flow tube and the second aperture.

The present disclosure relates to a shell-and-multi-double concentric-tube reactor and a shell-and-multi-double concentric-tube heat exchanger, and to a shell- and-multi-double concentric-tube reactor and a shell-and-multi-double concentric-tube heat exchanger which provide a new type of reactor and a heat exchanger, thereby maximizing catalyst performance and improving performance of the reactor by optimizing heat exchange efficiency and a heat flow, uniformly distributing a reactant, and increasing a flow rate of the reactant, and accordingly making the reactor and the heat exchanger compact.

A porthole gasket is configured to seal a circumferential region around two overlapping portholes in two adjacent heat exchanger plates of a plate heat exchanger, so as to define a passage for a fluid into or out of the plate heat exchanger. The porthole gasket has a ring-shaped portion to be compressed between the two adjacent heat exchanger plates while surrounding the overlapping portholes. The porthole gasket further comprises a plurality of projections that protrude from an outer perimeter of the ring-shaped portion and are configured to be compressed between the two adjacent heat exchanger plates so as to support the ring-shaped portion against pressure exerted by the fluid. A plate package for a plate heat exchanger is configured to include the two adjacent heat exchanger plates and the porthole gasket.

A liquid cooling apparatus has a chassis, a cover mounted on the chassis, and a dividing structure disposed in an inner chamber defined between the chassis and the cover. The dividing structure divides the inner chamber into a liquid inlet compartment and a liquid outlet compartment. The liquid inlet compartment communicates with the liquid outlet compartment via the recess. The liquid cooling apparatus can be installed on a first panel with the boss of the chassis mounted through a through hole of the first panel and thermally attached to a heat source on a second panel. A working fluid that flows into the liquid inlet compartment is forced to flow into the recess before flowing to the liquid outlet compartment by the dividing structure. Accordingly, heat generated by the heat source can be effectively dissipated.

A system is disclosed for cleaning the interiors of tubes in heat exchangers such as condensers and other devices having numerous substantially parallel tubes which periodically become fouled, scaled, or otherwise encumbered with deposits. An air-actuated seal resides on the end of a nozzle which is projected into the open end of a condenser tube or other heat exchanger tube to be cleaned. An air cylinder and piston retract the end of the nozzle on actuation of a single trigger valve on a manually operated water gun, which both begins high pressure water flow and operates the piston. On actuation of the trigger valve, the segment of the nozzle which has been inserted is retracted a short distance, crimping a flexible sleeve which surrounds it into a tight seal on the inner surface of the tube, thus preventing backflow or back spray. The system may employ projectiles designed to pass through the tubes under pressurized water, released by the gun, in close proximity to the interior surfaces of the tubes so that they may remove the deposits with a scraping or abrading action. The air-actuated sealing nozzle relieves the operator from arduous, repeated forcing of the nozzle into the tubes to maintain sealing contact with the interiors of the tubes. The system is readily adaptable to, and includes, a multi-nozzle arrangement actuated by a single trigger.
