A heat exchanger is disclosed having a first cylindrical tube and a lead screw which extends coaxially inside the first cylindrical tube; the inner surface of the first cylindrical tube has guiding grooves, and a cleaning element is secured to the lead screw in such a way that a rotating movement of the lead screw moves the cleaning element in the axial direction along the guiding grooves.

Provided is an inexpensive scrape-off type heat exchanger that is simple in construction, eliminating the need for using a pump for forcibly feeding the process fluid. With the scrape-off type heat exchanger (1), when a suction delivery element (30) which is rotated, while making a reciprocating motion, being closely contacted with an inner wall (200) of the heat transfer tube (20), is traveled from the process fluid inlet part (21) side toward a process fluid outlet part (22), the process fluid is sucked from a process fluid inlet part (21) into the inside of the heat transfer tube (20), and at the same time, the process fluid, which has already been sucked in, passed through the suction delivery element (30), and discharged to the process fluid outlet part (22) side, through the check valves 310, 320, is forced out to the process fluid outlet part (22). In the inside of the heat transfer tube (20), the process fluid is subjected to heat exchange with a heating/cooling medium which flows in between the jacket tube 10 and the heat transfer tube (20). The process fluid attached to the inner wall (200) of the heat transfer tube (20) is scraped off while the scraping part (33) being rotated.

A heat storage system is provided that is capable of being manufactured at lower cost and has higher heat transmission efficiency. A heat storage system includes a heat storage material having a higher specific gravity in a solid phase than in a liquid phase, a heat storage tank for containing the heat storage material, a cooling side heat exchanger arranged at an upper section inside the heat storage tank and for cooling the heat storage material, a heating side heat exchanger arranged at a lower section inside the heat storage tank and for heating the heat storage material, and a wall surface heater for heating a side wall of the heat storage tank.

A cooling device for reducing the temperature of cooked warm food in a liquid or paste-like state held in a container, in particular in a standard trolley, is provided. The cooling device includes a plate-like covering member which covers the opening cross-section of the container or of the standard trolley, wherein the covering member has vertically arranged cooling elements on the lower face thereof, which cooling elements, when the cooling device is attached and lowered, are immersed in the density of the food and a cooling medium circulates through the cooling elements, which cooling medium extracts the stored heat from the food. A stripping plate designed as a perforated sheet or as a perforated plate is provided on the lower face of the covering member, which stripping plate removes remaining food from the cooling elements during withdrawal of the cooling device.

Systems and methods are provided for removing debris from a heatsink. A debris detection and dislodging module receives one or more sensor readings that exceed a configurable threshold at a heatsink of a component to be cooled. In response to the received sensor readings, enabling, by the debris detection and dislodging module, a controller to activate a dislodging apparatus to remove debris in fins of the heatsink in the component to be cooled. The dislodging apparatus sweeps the debris in the fins of the component to be cooled until the one or more sensor readings returns to an expected level below the threshold. Coolant flowing through a coldplate assembly in the heatsink carries the debris out of the fins of the heatsink.
