An air conditioning robot according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a main body having a suction hole and a discharge hole; a cooling cycle including a compressor, a condenser, an expansion mechanism, and an evaporator, which are disposed within the main body; a blower fan configured to blow air suctioned through the suction hole so that the air is heat-exchanged with the evaporator and discharged through the discharge hole; a heat storage tank configured to accommodate a heat storage material in which heat of the condenser is stored; a heat dissipation part configured to dissipate the heat of the heat storage material accommodated in the heat storage tank, the heat dissipation part thermally contacting a heat transfer terminal disposed outside the main body; and a driving part configured to allow the main body to move so that the heat dissipation part thermally contacts or is thermally separated from the heat transfer terminal.

A system and method is provided for direct condensing steam heating of oil sands process slurry streams including viscous bitumen froth and tailings products streams. Slurry viscosities greater than that of water increase cavitation and vibration issues. High solids content exacerbate component erosions. Difficult, and competing, steam and slurry interactions are managed by steam nozzle arrangements and management of steam injection at sub-sonic velocities based on a ratio of the slurry back-pressure Pb and steam supply delivery pressure Po.

A manifold for a heat exchanger includes a manifold body configured to house heat exchanger components including a blower for circulating air and means for performing heat exchange between the air and a heat exchange fluid. The manifold also includes an opening (A) via which air enters the blower, an inlet for receiving air from the heat exchanger and an outlet for outputting air from the manifold. The manifold also includes a flow channel extending between the inlet and the outlet. The channel defines a helical flow path from the inlet to the outlet.

A temperature adjusting device adjusts a temperature of a device under test (DUT) electrically connected to a socket, and includes: a fluid connector connected to a fluid supply source that supplies a fluid; a heat exchanger thermally connected to at least one of the DUT and a carrier holding the DUT in a state that the at least one of the DUT and the carrier is pressed against the socket; a first flow path passing through an inside of the heat exchanger; and a first swirl flow forming part that swirls a flow of the fluid to form a first swirl flow and supplies the first swirl flow to the first flow path, the first swirl swirling along an inner surface of the first flow path around a first central axis of the first flow path.

The present disclosure provides a heat dissipation system, including: a coolant and a convection accelerator. The coolant is configured to contact at least a portion of the heat generating device; the convection accelerator is disposed in a predetermined region surrounding the heat generating device, configured to accelerate a flow of the coolant surrounding the heat generating device.

A cooling device includes a heat dissipator and a liquid cooling jacket. The heat dissipator includes a plate-shaped base portion that extends in a first direction along a direction where a refrigerant flows and in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and has a thickness in a third direction, a fin that protrudes from the base portion to one side in the third direction, and a top plate portion provided to an end of the fin. The liquid cooling jacket includes a top surface located on one side of the top plate portion with a gap between the top surface and the top plate portion. Top surface recesses recessed from the top surface toward one side and located side by side in the first direction.

A heat exchanger, includes: a core portion: a first flow path which is provided in the core portion and through which a first fluid flows; and a second flow path which is provided in the core portion and through which a second fluid flows. The first fluid flowing through the first flow path and the second fluid flowing through the second flow path exchange heat through a partition in the core portion. The first flow path includes: a plurality of main flow paths: an introducing chamber; and a discharge chamber. The main flow path includes: an introducing side shape changing section in which a certain flow path is connected in a straight shape to the main flow path adjacent thereto; and a discharge side shape changing section in which the certain flow path is connected in a straight shape to the main flow path adjacent thereto.

The device (1) for bringing a gas and a liquid into contact includes an enclosure (E), first means (5) for introducing into the enclosure and circulating therein a gas stream (G), second means (6) for introducing into the enclosure and circulating therein a liquid stream (L) that circulates inside the enclosure (E) in the same direction as the gas stream (G), and means (4A) for mixing the gas stream (G) and the liquid stream (L). These mixing means (4A) are positioned inside the enclosure (E) in the path of the gas stream and liquid stream and are capable of locally deflecting upward, and/or of locally causing to rise, at least one portion of the gas stream and liquid stream, so as to locally create turbulences in the gas stream and in the liquid stream.

There is provided a heat exchanger adapted to exchange heat between a first fluid and a second fluid. The heat exchanger comprises an outer tubular body, an inner body, a first inlet, a first outlet, a second inlet and a second outlet. The outer tubular body has an inner surface. The inner body is arranged inside the outer tubular body and has an outer surface facing the inner surface of the outer tubular body, leaving free a gap between the inner surface of the outer tubular body and the outer surface of the inner body. The first inlet and the first outlet are arranged to provide a first flow path for the first fluid from the first inlet to the first outlet via a first channel and via a second channel. The second inlet and the second outlet are arranged to provide a second flow path from the second inlet to the second outlet for the second fluid in the gap between the inner surface of the outer tubular body and the outer surface of the inner body. The outer tubular body comprises the first channel. The inner body comprises the second channel. The inner body and the second channel are rotatable relative to the outer tubular body and the first channel.

A microchannel evaporator includes a plurality of microchannels. Each of the plurality of microchannels includes a first end and a second end. A first end-tank is coupled to each first end of the plurality of microchannels and a second end-tank is coupled to each second end of the plurality of microchannels. A second-fluid inlet is coupled to either the first end-tank or the second end-tank and configured to receive a fluid into the microchannel evaporator and a second-fluid outlet is coupled to either the first end-tank or the second end-tank and configured to expel the fluid from the microchannel evaporator. Each microchannel of the plurality of microchannels includes at least one bend along a length thereof.
