A grey water heat recovery apparatus has first and second passes in counter-flow orientation. The hot side is grey water. The cold side is fresh water. It extracts heat from the grey water. The fresh water is carried in tubing bundles in series immersed in grey water sumps in cylindrical plastic, mild steel, or stainless steel pipe. Both ends of the fresh water bundle assembly extend from the same upper end pipe closure, without a pressurized line wall penetration in the walls of the pipe. There is a non-electrically conductive barrier between the fresh water and grey water flow paths. The apparatus has a leak detection circuit and co-operable bypass valves. The tube bundle is wider at the top than at the bottom. The lower manifold has grey water passages between the centering ears. The entire assembly is enclosed in a unitary external housing with easily accessible connection fittings.

An exemplary electronic device with integrated passive and active cooling includes a main logic board, a heat sink, and a cooling fan. A first surface of the heat sink faces the main logic board and contacts a heat-generating component of the main logic board. A second surface of the heat sink faces away from the main logic board and has a recess formed thereon. The heat sink further includes a plurality of fins that surround the recess. The cooling fan is at least partially enclosed within the recess by a fan shroud. The cooling fan is operable to draw air into the recess via channels defined by a first subset of the plurality of fins, and expel air from the recess via channels defined by a second subset of the plurality of fins.

A heat exchanger in one aspect includes a longitudinal shell and a transverse shell oriented transversely thereto. A J-shaped tube bundle carrying a tube-side fluid extends through the longitudinal and transverse shells from a first tubesheet in the longitudinal shell to a second tubesheet in the transverse shell. The first and second tubesheets are oriented perpendicular to each other. In a related aspect a dual heat exchanger unit includes a first longitudinal shell, a second longitudinal shell, and a common transverse shell extending transversely between and fluidly coupled to the longitudinal shells. The longitudinal shells may be parallel to each other. The shells are fluidly coupled directly together to form a common shell-side space between pairs of inlet and outlet tubesheets. A pair of J-shaped tube bundles is disposed in the dual heat exchanger unit for heating two tube-side fluids.

The system also includes a cooling circuit that provides a cooling medium to the at least two heat exchangers. The cooling circuit provides the cooling medium to a first heat exchanger of the at least two heat exchangers in accordance with a first mode. The cooling circuit provide the cooling medium to a second heat exchanger of the at least two heat exchangers in accordance with a second mode.

A system includes a radiant syngas cooler which receives and cools syngas generated in a gasifier. The radiant syngas cooler includes an outer shell of the radiant syngas cooler defining an annular space of the radiant syngas cooler and a heat exchange tube of the radiant syngas cooler positioned within the annular space and configured to flow a cooling medium. The heat exchange tube is configured to enable heat exchange between the syngas and the cooling medium to cool the syngas. The radiant syngas cooler includes a downcomer tube of the radiant syngas cooler which supplies the cooling medium to the heat exchange tube, where the downcomer tube includes a downflow portion positioned outside of the annular space of the radiant syngas cooler. The downflow portion is fluidly coupled to a header, and the header fluidly couples the downcomer tube to the heat exchange tube.

A quench-cooling system has a primary quench cooler as a double-tube heat exchanger, a tube bundle heat exchanger as a secondary quench cooler. A tube bundle is enclosed by a casing, forming a casing room, which is formed between tube sheets arranged at spaced locations. Bundle tubes are held with the tube sheets. Parallel cooling channels, connected with one another, have a rectangular tunnel geometry formed (i) from the thin tube sheet, separating a gas side from a water/steam side and connected to a ring flange, which is connected to the casing of the enclosed tube bundle; (ii) from parallel webs, arranged on the tube sheet, separating individual water/steam flows from one another; and (iii) from a covering sheet, provided with openings for bundle tubes and defining the flow in the tunnel arrangement of the cooling channels.

An exhaust gas heat exchanger having stacked flat tubes includes a stacked tube body configured by stacking a plurality of flat tubes in multiple tiers with spaces therebetween and arranged inside a case; exhaust gas flows in from a first end part of the stacked tube body in a tube axis direction, circulates through each flat tube, and flows out from the a second end part; and cooling water from the case is supplied to the first end part to circulate along an exterior surface side of each flat tube. The cooling water is introduced into the tubes from two locations of the case and in mutually opposite directions which are parallel to flat surfaces of the tubes and vertical in the axis direction of the flat tubes.

An exemplary electronic device with integrated passive and active cooling includes a main logic board, a heat sink, and a cooling fan. A first surface of the heat sink faces the main logic board and contacts a heat-generating component of the main logic board. A second surface of the heat sink faces away from the main logic board and has a recess formed thereon. The heat sink further includes a plurality of fins that surround the recess. The cooling fan is at least partially enclosed within the recess by a fan shroud. The cooling fan is operable to draw air into the recess via channels defined by a first subset of the plurality of fins, and expel air from the recess via channels defined by a second subset of the plurality of fins.

Disclosed is an improved method of manufacturing cooled accelerator grid with full penetration weld configuration. In a preferred form, the method includes the steps of: machining a plurality of stubs, a first and a second end of a plurality of inconel pipes; welding the stubs with the first end of the inconel pipes forming a water connector assembly; machining of a base plate; welding the base plate with the water connector assembly; machining the base plate welded with the water connector assembly, wherein machining further comprises milling of plurality of cooling channels across angled plane of the base plate welded with the water connector assembly; closing of plurality of cooling channels located on the base plate welded with the water connector assembly; and welding each of plurality of external hydraulic circuits with the second end of each of the plurality of inconel pipes.

A heat exchanger, for heating or cooling bulk solids, includes a housing including an inlet for receiving the bulk solids, an outlet for discharging the bulk solids, and a heat exchange chamber disposed between the inlet and the outlet. The heat exchanger also includes spaced apart heat transfer tubes supported within the housing, between the inlet and the outlet, and extending through the heat exchange chamber, for indirect heat exchange of a heat exchange medium in the heat exchange chamber with the bulk solids that flow, by gravity, from the inlet, and through the heat transfer tubes, toward the outlet. The heat transfer tubes include a first end for receiving the bulk solids, and a second end for release of bulk solids. At least one of the first end and the second end is moveable relative to the housing to accommodate thermal expansion or contraction.
