The at least one bearing is a gas bearing, wherein a passage is arranged in the stationary module to lead an extracted portion of production gas at raised pressure from the compressor to the gas bearing(s).

A ducted fan includes a fan and a cowl having a cylindrical shape and including an introduction port configured to introduce air from a first end portion side. The fan includes a compressor blade provided on an outer circumferential side and a thrust blade provided on an inner circumferential side of the compressor blade. The cowl includes a housing portion configured to accommodate the compressor blade in an interior thereof, an outlet configured to allow air flowing through the housing portion to be blown therethrough by the compressor blade, and an inlet configured to suck air blown out. The outlet is provided inwards in a radial direction of the cowl and near the introduction port of the cowl, and the inlet is provided inwards in the radial direction of the cowl and between the outlet and the compressor blade in an axial line direction.

The disclosure provides a luminous fan including a main body, a light guide member and at least one light source. The main body includes a fan frame and a propeller, and the propeller is rotatably mounted on the fan frame. The light guide member includes an outer light guide ring and an inner light guide ring, the outer light guide ring and the inner light guide ring are mounted on the fan frame, the inner light guide ring has an air channel, the propeller is located in the air channel, and the outer light guide ring surrounds the inner light guide ring and is exposed from the luminous fan. The at least one light source is disposed between the outer light guide ring and the inner light guide ring.

An improved radiator mounting and cooling system for use in automobiles allows multiple components to be incorporated into the same unit, limiting the need for accessories to be mounted to inner fenders or firewall. A circulating vortex of air is pulled through a front grill and vortex tubes disposed through sides of the radiator system to improve cooling efficiency. An outer shroud protects interior components and creates a sealed core cavity allowing air to only enter through vortex tubes and front grill and exit through a rear grill. A self-circulating cooling system provides additional cooling of coolant. A fan system pulls around 5000 CFM of air through the core cavity. An optional secondary coolant pumping system allows coolant to be pumped when needed. A control system controls activation of the fan system and secondary coolant pumping system based on signals from sensors.

Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that includes a fan. The fan can include a center shaft, fan blades that extend from the center shaft, and a plurality of magnets on an outside portion of at least two of the fan blades, where stator coils interact with the magnets to drive the blades around the center shaft. The center shaft and fan blades are a single component from the same material. In some examples, the center shaft and fan blades were created using a metal injection molding process.

A fluid processing machine that includes a stator capable of generating an electromagnetic field and a first rotor section having at least one impeller and at least one permanent magnet. The stator is configured to electromagnetically engage with the first rotor section so as to rotate the first rotor section about a central axis in a first rotational direction. Further rotor sections can also be included that are induced to rotate in the first rotational direction. Other rotator sections with impellers and permanent magnets can also be included that are driven in a second, contra-rotating, direction by a second stator. Several of the fluid processing machine can be distributed within a surface system or subsea system that transports produced fluid from wells to a surface facility.
