A swirling flow generation device includes a first pipe having a first pipe axis and through which gas passes, a second pipe having a second pipe axis in a direction different from the first pipe axis and communicates with downstream of the first pipe, and an airflow changing unit provided in the first pipe and having an opening eccentric from the first pipe axis. A swirling flow is formed in the second pipe as the center of the airflow passed through the opening flows into the second pipe at a position that is eccentric from the second pipe axis.

The present invention relates to a turbulence element for use with a rotor and a rotor featuring turbulence elements. The rotor is used in a screening apparatus of the pulp and paper industry. The turbulence element has a longitudinal centerline (CL); two longitudinal edges, a leading edge and a trailing edge; two opposite ends, a first end and a second end; and two surfaces, a top surface and a bottom surface arranged between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The top surface is divided into a leading surface having its origin at the leading edge, and a trailing surface having its origin at the trailing edge. The leading edge and the leading surface are provided with undulations (U).

A modular support structure comprising multiple chord or arc modules configured to selectively fixedly engage adjacent modules to define a completed annular support structure configured to support a rotary element of a rotary filter. The modular chord or arc segments may fixedly engaged an adjacent chord or arc segment through a fixing mechanism selected from the group consisting of: fasteners, clamps, pins, bolts, locks, locking mechanisms, key and socket mechanisms, spot welding, welding, adhesives, and other fastening mechanisms configured to engage and disengage adjacent chord or arc modules with ease.

A method for dilution for a pressure screen comprising a rotor rotating inside a screen a distance to the screen, includes supplying feeding stock into a screening zone formed in the spacing between the rotor and the screen with some of the feeding stock passing through the screen into an accept area to become accept, and the remaining feeding stock discharged into a reject area as reject flow. The amount of the dilution water added into the reject flow is 0.8 to 3.5 times the amount of the reject flow by volume. Additionally, a pressure screen comprises a dilution water adding apparatus adapted to add dilution water directly into the reject area of the pressure screen, wherein the amount of the dilution water added into the reject flow is 0.8 to 3.5 times of the amount of the reject flow by volume.
