COAXIAL TUBE ARRANGEMENT
A coaxial tube arrangement for a heat exchanger may include a coaxial tube and a closing cover. The coaxial tube may include an inner core channel and an outer annular channel. The closing cover may close the coaxial tube at a longitudinal end side. The closing cover may have a base region and a circumferential edge. The base region may be aligned transversely to a flow direction through the coaxial tube. The circumferential edge may be aligned with the flow direction and may face the coaxial tube. The circumferential edge may have a thickness, which is defined transversely to the flow direction, that is equal to or greater than a height of the annular channel, which is defined transversely to the flow direction. The circumferential edge may cover the annular channel transversely to the flow direction and may separate the annular channel from the core channel in a fluid-tight manner.
HEAT EXCHANGER SYSTEM
A heat exchanger system is provided with at least one heat exchanger for heating the suction gas between the evaporator and the compressor inlet, which heat exchanger is heated by the refrigerant liquid. It is the object to achieve dry suction gas from a flooded evaporator. It is an object to achieve heat exchange with a minimum flow restriction. The objects can be fulfilled by a heat exchanger including a circulating path for the suction gas and for the refrigerant liquid. Hereby it can be achieved that the circulating path forms a highly effective heat exchanger. The circulating path can be achieved with a very large heat-transmitting surface. The circulation of the suction gas will force liquid particles in the suction gas to be forced outside in the circulating path and in that way come in direct thermal contact with the surface that separates the suction gas from the refrigerant liquid.
FINLESS-TYPE DUAL-PIPE HEAT EXCHANGE APPARATUS
The present invention relates to a finless-type dual-pipe heat exchange apparatus, and to a finless-type dual-pipe heat exchange apparatus capable of dually performing heat exchange inside and outside a heat exchange pipe so as to increase a heat transfer area and heat exchange efficiency. To this end, the finless-type dual-pipe heat exchange apparatus according to the present invention has a heat exchange pipe provided as a finless-type dual pipe such that exhaust gas moves to a secondary heat exchange space, formed inside a hot water tank, along an inner pipe passage while flames generated from a burner first heats an inner pipe of the finless-type dual pipe so as to perform a primary heat exchange, and simultaneously, an exhaust gas passage is formed to pass through a chamber, first heated by the flames generated from the burner, between both the chambers to which the inner pipe and an outer pipe are connected, in order to increase the heat exchange efficiency of the present apparatus, such that the exhaust gas is sent to the secondary heat exchange space formed inside the hot water tank and meets the exhaust gas flowing in through an exhaust gas passage of the inner pipe so as to uniformly transfer heat to the secondary heat exchange space formed inside the hot water tank, thereby performing a secondary heat exchange with the outer pipe of the heat exchange apparatus.
Process and apparatus for fluidizing a catalyst bed
A process and apparatus for fluidizing a catalyst cooler with fluidization gas fed to the cooler below the catalyst bed is disclosed. Fluidization headers extend through an outlet manifold and deliver fluidization gas through distributors protruding through an outlet tube sheet defining said outlet manifold. The outlet manifold collects heated water vapor from the catalyst cooler and discharges it from the catalyst cooler.

MULTILAYER THERMAL SHIELD COMPRISING AN INTEGRATED FLUID CIRCUIT
When products to be shipped are temperature-sensitive, it is necessary to maintain a substantially uniform and constant temperature to avoid spoilage. As a result, thermal shields are often placed on top of the products. Many designs for thermal shields have been considered in the past but improvements are still desired. Accordingly, there is provided a multilayer thermal shield (100) comprising a thermally conductive layer (108), and at least one heat exchange fluid circuit (120) coupled to a first surface of the thermally conductive layer, the at least one heat exchange fluid circuit comprising at least one inlet (124) configured to permit the ingress of heat exchange fluid. The thermal shield further comprises an outer insulation layer (104) connected to a first surface of the thermally conductive layer (108) and comprising grooves designed to receive the heat exchange fluid circuit. The thermal shield further comprises an inner insulation layer (110) connected to a second surface of the thermally conductive layer (108).
FUEL CELL DEVICE
A fuel cell device includes: a reformer that generates a reformed gas; a fuel cell; a combustor that combusts off-gas of the reformed gas and air for power generation, and generates a combustion exhaust gas; a first air heat exchanger that has a combustion exhaust gas path and a first air supply path, and that performs heat exchange between the combustion exhaust gas and the air for power generation; a fuel cell storage which stores the fuel cell; a second air heat exchanger that has a second air supply path that supplies the air for power generation to the fuel cell, and that performs heat exchange between the off-gas of the air for power generation and the air for power generation; and a housing that stores members.
