A fluid flow modifier device comprising: an inlet portion for receiving a flow of fluid; an outlet portion for outputting the flow of fluid; and a flow modifier portion disposed between the inlet portion and the outlet portion, the flow modifier portion comprising an outer portion comprising a closed cross-section to the flow of fluid and an inner porous portion configured such that at least a portion of the flow received in the inlet portion must pass through the inner porous portion to reach the fluid outlet. The fluid flow modifier device is ideally used to transition fluid flow between an fluid supply line and a fluid treatment zone—for example, a pressure water supply line and an ultraviolet radiation treatment device (e.g., drinking water treatment device).

Provided is an apparatus for removing thermal stratification generated by turbulent penetration by using a rotation ring. The apparatus removes thermal stratification formed in a branch pipe branching from a main pipe through which a high-temperature fluid flows, the apparatus including: a hollow body portion coupled to the branch pipe; a plurality of first electromagnets provided to be spaced apart from each other in a circumferential direction of the body portion; a controller configured to sequentially change polarities of the plurality of first electromagnets; and a rotation ring including a plurality of second electromagnets having either an N polarity or an S polarity, the rotation ring being rotatably coupled to the body portion, wherein, when the polarities of the plurality of first electromagnets are sequentially changed, the rotation ring rotates according to a magnetic force of the plurality of first electromagnets and the plurality of second electromagnets.

The present disclosure relates to an expanding and radiative flow mechanism. The mechanism has a bottom surface. The bottom surface is provided with a fluid supply port. The bottom surface of the mechanism and a surface of a to-be-adsorbed object form a gap during use. A fluid flows out from the fluid supply port, enters the gap and flows out along the gap. The gap is an expanding gap and meets the following: a radial length exists with the fluid supply port as an initial point of the flow, and a height of the gap continuously increases in an outward radial direction within this length. With improvements to a parallel radiative flow mechanism, the mechanism of the present disclosure can effectively increase an absorption force of a radiative flow, which is conducive to subsequent applications thereof.
