The present disclosure relates to a hairdryer and, more specifically, to a hairdryer wherein a ratio between dimensions of fan unit components is appropriately changed to stabilize the flow of air introduced into a fan unit and suppress occurrence of turbulence so that internal flow efficiency can be increased and the noise can be decreased.

The present invention relates to a system and method for joining adjacent sections of a compressor diaphragm. A splitline jumper is positioned within a recessed portion of a seal ring segment of the adjacent compressor diaphragms. The splitline jumper is sized and oriented so as to prevent axial movement of the compressor diaphragms relative to each other and also to prevent rotational movement of the seal ring relative to the diaphragm.

The present disclosure concerns a ventilation system to be applied to a micronizer, in such a way that the ventilation does not prevent nebulization, rather it disperses it in an environment that for example is to be sterilized. Thanks to a particular configuration, the ventilation system is also resistant to water present in the environment to be sterilized.

An improved stator assembly is disclosed. The stator assembly may comprise an exit guide vane, an OD ring, and an ID ring. The exit guide vane may couple at one end to the OD ring and at an opposite end to the ID ring. The exit guide vane may comprise a leading edge opposite of a trailing edge. The OD ring and the ID ring may couple to a diffuser assembly of a gas turbine engine. The stator assembly may further comprise an aft OD seal, a forward OD seal, an ID seal, and a diffuser assembly seal to reduce airflow leaks around the stator assembly.

An abrasive coating comprising a plurality of first grit particles placed on a top surface of a substrate and spaced to provide channels for the removal of cut chips and rub debris and heat reduction. A plurality of second grit particles are placed between each of the first grit particles, and having a nominal size smaller than the first grit particles. A mixture of the second grit particles to the first grit particles comprises from about 75-98%. The second grit particles form a single layer or multiple layers and comprise height of 10 to 60% of that of the first grit particles. A matrix material is bonded to the top surface; the matrix material envelops the second grit particles and bonds to and partially surrounds the first grit particles. The first grit particles extend above the matrix material and the second grit particles relative to the top surface.

A system is provided. The system includes a first medium at a first pressure, a second medium at a second pressure, and a medium conditioning sub-system. The medium conditioning sub-system includes a compressor, a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, and a turbine. The turbine receives the first medium and the second medium.

A composite article comprises a substrate, the substrate comprising a silicon containing material and an additive comprising boron nitride nanotubes.

An apparatus and kit for capturing waste air flow wherein the apparatus comprises a shroud locatable over the waste airflow source, a first fan rotatably mounted within the should and a first electrical generator motor operably connected to and driven by rotation of the first fan, wherein the first fan is rotatable in a first direction by the waste air flow. The kit further comprises a second fan sized to correspond to and replace an existing axial fan.

A ducted fan assembly has a central axis, a duct having an outer wall and an inner wall, a fan hub at least partially disposed on the central axis, a plurality of fan blades coupled to the fan hub, and a first stator. The first stator has a first end coupled to the inner wall, a second end coupled to the inner wall, and a hub interface disposed between the first end and the second end, wherein the hub interface is coupled to the fan hub.

A blower device includes an axial flow fan having blades to blow air, and a fan shroud that includes a cylindrical portion surrounding an outer circumference of the fan at a distance from the outer circumference, and an air guiding portion guiding air drawn by the fan. The fan shroud includes a short end part shorter in distance to the outer circumference of the fan than another part in an outer end portion of the fan shroud, and a protruding end part provided at a position advanced in a rotational direction from the short end part, protruding upstream in a flow of the drawn air more than the fan and protruding outward of the air guiding portion. Accordingly, the blower device which includes the fan shroud capable of reducing rotational noise can be provided.
