An gas-driven generator system for generating electric power from movement of a working liquid. The system includes a gas-driven generator that includes a liquid turbine system fluidically interposed between the lower end of an elongated gravitational distribution conduit and the lower ends of plural elongated buoyancy conduits. A heavy working liquid flows from the upper ends of the buoyancy conduits and is fed into the upper end of the elongated gravitational distribution conduit.

The present disclosure relates to an electric pump including a housing defining an inlet and an outlet. The electric pump includes a rotor and stator within the housing. The rotor is liquid cooled by working fluid of the pump and the stator is positioned in a dry chamber that is sealed to prevent the working fluid from entering the dry chamber. A heat exchanger is used to cool the stator. An impeller driven by the rotor draws working fluid into the housing through the inlet. The working fluid passes through the heat exchanger to draw heat from the stator before reaching the impeller. The working fluid is discharged from the housing through the outlet by the impeller.

A blower device and a vehicular air-conditioning device including a chamber for air flow so as to cool a motor, whereby water drops are prevented from reaching the motor with higher reliability. Included is a casing having an air intake port, an air discharge port, and a discharge flow path portion communicating between the air intake port and the air discharge port; a scroll fan provided in the casing to take in the air from the air intake port and generate an air flow to the air discharge port through the discharge flow path portion; a motor rotationally driving the scroll fan; and a motor cooling unit cooling the motor. The motor cooling unit includes a chamber for partial air flow from the discharge flow path portion and a cooling duct having an opening portion which opens into the chamber at one end and supplying air to the motor.

Systems and methods for reducing the pressure of a first pressurized fluid, thereby reducing the temperature of the pressurized fluid, and utilization of the reduced-pressure and temperature fluid to cool a second fluid. Such an approach can enable a reduction in the size and weight of a hydraulic system, utilize waste energy in a system, and/or minimize electrical power requirements of a system, among other benefits.
