A nacelle for a wind turbine includes: a nacelle housing; a rotor hub; and a rotor bearing for bearing the rotor hub on the nacelle housing, wherein the rotor bearing has at least one inner ring element and at least one outer ring element, wherein at least one oil-lubricated sliding bearing element is formed between the inner ring element and the outer ring element. In the nacelle housing and/or in the rotor hub, a lubricating oil sump is formed in such a manner for receiving a lubricating oil for the sliding bearing element. The lubricating oil sump can be filled with lubricating oil up to a lubricating oil level, wherein at least a section of the rotor bearing is arranged in the lubricating oil sump vertically below the lubricating oil level.

A compressor may include a shell, first and second scroll members, a floating seal, a muffler plate, and a wear ring. The shell defines a discharge chamber and a suction chamber. The floating seal may sealingly engage the second scroll member. The muffler plate defines the discharge chamber and the suction chamber. The wear ring may sealingly engage the muffler plate and the floating seal such that the wear ring, the muffler plate, and the floating seal fluidly isolate the discharge chamber from the suction chamber. The muffler plate may include an axially facing surface that contacts the wear ring. The axially facing surface may include an annular recess. The wear ring may at least partially cover the annular recess. The annular recess may provide clearance between the muffler plate and the wear ring to allow the wear ring to deflect relative to the muffler plate during compressor operation.

The disclosure provides a sealing system applicable for an ocean power generation device, which includes at least one first seal and a water leakage protection device. The water leakage protection device is located at a side of at least one first seal away from seawater, and includes a sealed water storage tank and a drain pipe. The sealed water storage tank collects and stores seawater leaked from the at least one first seal. One end of the drain pipe is communicated with the sealed water storage tank, and the seawater stored in the sealed water storage tank is discharged through the drain pipe.

A method for creating a transition from an edge of an add-on part mounted on the outer surface of a rotor blade, including the steps: delimiting an application area on the rotor blade surface and the add-on part to be covered by a sealant compound with a thin and smooth masking tape; dispensing of the sealant on the application area; distribution of the sealant; removing the masking tape; and smoothening of a sealant transition step with a flexible tool, is provided.

A wind turbine rotor blade is also provided.

A rotor assembly is provided for a piece of rotational equipment. This rotor assembly includes a rotor disk, a rotor blade and a seal element. The rotor disk is configured to rotate about a rotational axis. The rotor disk extends axially along the rotational axis to a rotor disk end face. The rotor blade includes an attachment. The attachment attaches the rotor blade to the rotor disk. The seal element is configured to seal a gap between the rotor disk and the attachment. The seal element has a longitudinal centerline that extends along an interface between the rotor disk and the attachment at the rotor disk end face.

Two conflicting functions of sealing and lubrication of sliding faces are achieved for a long time. The sliding face of a rotating-side seal ring 3 is provided with dynamic pressure generation grooves 11 configured to communicate with the circumferential edge on the inner peripheral side of the sliding face and not to communicate with the circumferential edge on the outer peripheral side. A spring 7 is provided on the back side of a stationary-side seal ring 6 for pressing the stationary-side seal ring 6 against the sliding face of the rotating-side seal ring 3. A spring holder 8 is provided between the back side of the stationary-side seal ring 6 and the spring 7.

Provided is a method of shaping an initial edge seal along a longitudinal edge step of an add-on part mounted on the outer surface of a rotor blade, which method includes the steps of providing an initial edge seal along a longitudinal edge step of an add-on part mounted on an outer surface of a rotor blade, and removing a top layer of the initial edge seal. Further provided is wind turbine rotor blade.

A seal structure includes a cylindrical outlet wall portion which forms an outlet passage at a downstream side of a turbine wheel and an annular shroud portion which is provided in a second nozzle ring and faces a blade portion. A proximal end portion of the outlet wall portion and a distal end portion of the shroud portion face each other with a gap interposed therebetween in an axial direction. An annular seal member is disposed at an inner peripheral portion of the gap in a radial direction. The seal member comes into contact with the proximal end portion of the outlet wall portion and the distal end portion of the shroud portion to block the gap.

This invention aims to provide the composition of inlet so that the strong output may be provided by rotating with the state of high efficiency as the water falling energy and the flow pressure are simultaneously provided to the impeller and to provide impeller assembly for hydroelectric power generation device maximizing the output efficiency by improving the composition of impeller positively. Namely, this invention inserts the impeller in the main body of cylinder shape that the closed inner space is formed by the cover member, the driving shaft shall be supported in the bearing coupled to the cover member, the impeller installed in the inner space shall be driven by forming the inlet and the outlet in the main body in the impeller assembly for a hydroelectric power generation device; the abovementioned inlet, the fluid like the involute curve shall be supplied from the 12 o'clock direction to the 4 o'clock direction of the main body, the outlet is formed from 6 o'clock direction to 8 o'clock direction, the abovementioned impeller forms the plural fluid tanks opened toward the inner surface of the main body, the moment of rotation of the impeller shall be increased by forming the abovementioned fluid tank in the closed pressuring part is formed in the direction of 4 o'clock direction to 6 o'clock direction.

Apparatus comprising a first shaft and a second shaft supported in a substantially concentric relationship so that they are able to rotate relative to one another about a rotational axis (R); wherein one of the first and second shafts passes through a bore defined in the other of the first and second shafts; a seal arrangement between the first and second shafts, said seal arrangement being locked from rotational movement relative to said first shaft; wherein the seal arrangement comprises a first portion that is rotatably mounted on the second shaft by a bearing and a second portion that is configured to seal against a miming surface defined by the second shaft. Advantageously, since the seal arrangement is rotatably mounted on the same shaft against which it forms a seal, the sealing arrangement accommodates for alignment errors between the first and second shafts.
