PIPE ARRANGEMENT WITH SUPPORT SECTIONS ON THE OUTER PIPE
The invention relates to a pipe arrangement (10) with a fluid-carrying inner pipe (12) and an outer pipe (14) that surrounds the inner pipe (12), wherein spacers (20, 24) are arranged between the inner pipe (12) and the outer pipe (14) in such a way that a gap (16) is formed between the inner pipe (12) and the outer pipe (14), wherein the outer pipe (14) is joined at its first axial end section (18) in a material-bonded or cohesive manner to a first spacer (20), which is joined to the inner pipe (12) in a material-bonded manner, and wherein the outer pipe (14) is arranged at its second axial end section (22) at least partially with a radial spacing (26) to a second spacer (24), which is joined to the inner pipe (12) in a material-bonded manner.
HEAT PROTECTIVE SLEEVE
A heat protective sleeve includes a body being cylindrical extending along a longitudinal direction and comprising a triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) structure, an open cell foam structure, or a lattice structure. A strip extends along the longitudinal direction of the body. The strip is a same material as the TPMS structure, the open cell foam structure, or the lattice structure. The material of the strip is solid and without holes through it. An endcap removably couples to the body. In some examples, the body has fastening threads and the endcap has mating threads. The mating threads of the endcap are configured to engage with the fastening threads of the body to releasably couple the endcap to the body.
Chilled beam installation system and method
A chilled beam includes a body having a first side and a second side opposite to the first side. The chilled beam also includes a first mounting bracket coupled to the first side and configured to rotate against a first bias of the first mounting bracket in response to a first force against the first mounting bracket. The chilled beam also includes a second mounting bracket coupled to the second side and configured to rotate against a second bias of the second mounting bracket in response to a second force against the second mounting bracket.
LOW TEMPERATURE FLUID DUAL STRUCTURE PIPE AND LOW TEMPERATURE FLUID DUAL STRUCTURE STORAGE TANK
A low temperature fluid dual structure pipe includes: an inner pipe through which a low temperature fluid flows; and an outer pipe externally fitted to the inner pipe with a sealed tubular space therebetween. An inactive gas having a melting point and a boiling point each of which is equal to or higher than a temperature of the low temperature fluid is filled in the tubular space between the inner pipe and the outer pipe. When the low temperature fluid flows through the inner pipe, the inactive gas is liquefied or solidified, and therefore, at least one of a liquefied inactive gas layer and a solidified inactive gas layer is formed on an outer peripheral surface of the inner pipe. As a result, a pseudo vacuum layer that is in a substantially vacuum state is formed in the tubular space.

INSULATOR
Provided is an insulator which is capable of reducing an abnormal noise. A first mounting hole engaging a vehicle body side is formed in a first portion, and a second mounting hole engaging an exhaust pipe side is formed in a second portion disposed to be spaced apart from the first portion. The first section and the second portion are coupled to each other by the coupling portion. The first portion and the second portion are adapted such that at least the inner peripheral surfaces of the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole are configured from a rubber-like elastic body having a self-lubrication property.
FLOW PIPE
There is provided a flow pipe including: a pipe body including a side wall having an opening portion; and a heat insulator arranged at an inner peripheral side of the pipe body and having a flow path through which a fluid flows. The heat insulator has an outer peripheral surface facing with the side wall, and the outer peripheral surface has a flow path structure configured to form a flow path that guides a water droplet generated between the heat insulator and the pipe body to the opening portion.
