A hybrid heat exchanger apparatus having a heat exchanger device with a hot fluid flowing therethrough includes a cooling water distribution system and an air flow mechanism for causing ambient air to flow across the heat exchanger device. The cooling water distribution system distributes evaporative cooling water onto the heat exchanger device to wet only a portion of the heat exchanger device while allowing a remaining portion of the heat exchanger device to be dry. The air flow mechanism causes ambient air to flow across the heat exchanger device to generate hot humid air from the ambient air flowing across the wet portion of the heat exchanger device and hot dry air from the ambient air flowing across the remaining dry portion of the heat exchanger device. Methods are also described.

Provided are a chevron vane that traps and removes droplets contained in steam and a moisture separator including the same. The chevron vane for trapping and removing droplets contained in steam includes a main frame group including multiple main frames arranged in a flow direction of steam and pivotably connected to each other, and a collection vane group mounted on the main frame group and including multiple collection vanes for trapping droplets contained in the steam.

A method for regulating climate, comprising: 1) allowing the formation of a relatively high temperature zone and a low temperature zone in the air above the ground; 2) allowing the formation of air convection between the high temperature zone and the low temperature zone as the cold air in the low temperature zone has a greater density than the hot air in the high temperature zone. A device for regulating climate is, i.e. an automatic air tower. The automatic air tower comprises a column (1) with an air inlet (12) at the bottom, wherein the column comprises a startup unit (13) and a shutdown unit (14) inside and has an air outlet (15) at the top. The aforesaid method and tower can prevent and eliminate the formation of haze and cool the earth's ground.

A droplet heat exchange system is provided for that includes a heat exchange chamber, at least one injector, and at least one swirler. The chamber is configured to have gas flow through it. The injector can be configured to dispense liquid droplets into the chamber for thermal energy exchange with gas flowing through the chamber. The swirler can disposed within the chamber and can have a body configured to form a spiral gas flow that pushes liquid droplets from the injector, radially outward as gas flows across the body, thereby separating the liquid droplets from the gas flowing across the body and forming a liquid film along an inner wall of the chamber. The collector can be in fluid communication with the heat exchange chamber and configured to collect the liquid film after thermal energy exchange. The collector can be configured to direct at least some of the collected liquid film to the injector for subsequent use.

A condensation dedust-demister device, comprises at least one of the followings: a condensator, a refluent demister, a large curve demister, a mixed curve demister and a super-sine demister etc.. Said condensator with a shell/cavity style pipeline refrigerating system or cooling system can condense dust into mist/haze and be designed as the first class tube demister, consequently said refluent demister and so on can collect and dedust-demist what condensator condensed by centrifugal effect, with the assisting of easiness made by collecting liquid wall and drain as well as multiple classes composition the condensation dedust-demister set can dedust flue gas to 0 mg/Nm3 and demist to 10 mg/Nm3 when raw gas containing dust less than 20 mg/Nm3. This set can remove grains of SO3 aerosol and Hg0 etc. due to be condensed to haze at the same time.
