A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system includes an evaporator coil and a compressor fluidly coupled to the evaporator coil via a suction line. A condenser coil is fluidly coupled to the compressor via a discharge line and fluidly coupled to a metering device via a liquid line. A charge compensator is fluidly coupled to the liquid line via a connection line. A charge compensator re-heat valve is disposed in the connection line.

The disclosure relates to a conduit connector for a fluid line, having a housing, which has at least one first connection geometry and one second connection geometry, each for connecting to a fluid line. In the housing, a fluid-conducting channel is formed between the first connection geometry and the second connection geometry. In order to avoid damage due to freezing of a liquid located in the channel or the connected fluid lines, the housing has a volume equalization device, which is connected to the channel.

A device (1) for lowering flow noises has opposed first and second connection pieces (2, 3), and outer and inner sleeves (4, 5) between the connection pieces. A radial collar (6) is between the sleeves (4, 5) and forms separated volume chambers. Openings (11) in the inner sleeve (5) connect the volume chambers to a line space (13) enclosed by the inner sleeve (5). A sealing ring (15) at the free end (14) of the collar (6) defines a ring cap with a lateral surface (21) that reaches over the collar (6) and seals against the sleeve (4, 5) adjacent the free end (14) of the collar (6) and that has a surface (23, 26) that seals against either an end face (25) of the collar (6) or a side surface (28) of the collar (6) extending parallel to the radial collar (6).

A device for reducing and/or eliminating water noise. A screen made of waterproof material has small holes distributed across its entire surface, to reduce the size of water droplets exiting the screen to less than 5 mm.

There is described a drainage system comprising: an inlet pipe; and an energy dissipater comprising a dissipation chamber. The dissipation chamber has a dissipater inlet fluidically connected to the inlet pipe and a dissipater outlet arranged to discharge fluid from the dissipation chamber. The dissipater inlet extends between a first end and a second end. A wall of the inlet pipe extends tangentially from the dissipation chamber so as to define the first end and such that, in use, fluid is discharged into the dissipation chamber in a tangential direction, thereby inducing a circulating flow within the dissipation chamber about an axis of the dissipation chamber. The width of the dissipater inlet in a direction parallel to the axis decreases from the first end to the second end.

A fuel pressure accumulator for a fuel supply circuit of a turbine engine having at least one pipe is provided. The fuel pressure accumulator generally includes at least one housing adjacent to said pipe and receiving at least one deformable enclosure confining a gas and having at least one movable wall in contact with the fuel in order to dampen a fuel overpressure, where the housing is coaxial with the pipe and the accumulator has a permeable chamber delimited at least partially by the housing, pressurizing the deformable enclosure and communicating with the main fuel flow via a grid with staged walls tilted, with respect to a direction of the flow flowing along the grid, substantially in the direction of the deformable enclosure.
