A flow field measurement device and a method for a scale model of a natural gas hydrate reservoir are provided. The measurement device includes non-central vertical well pressure sensors, non-central vertical well outlet valves, communicating vessel valves, differential pressure sensors, a communicating vessel, a central vertical well outlet valve, and a central vertical well pressure sensor. By providing differential pressure sensors, between a measuring point of the central vertical well and a measuring point of each of the non-central vertical wells, to measure pressure differences, the flow field measurement device enables a reasonable distribution of a three-dimensional space inside the reactor to analyze gas-liquid flow trends in the reactor with a simulated flow field. Determining whether to turn on the differential pressure sensors according to a predetermination based on a feedback from the pressure sensors, allows flow field measurements in the reactor under both high and low pressure differences.

Methods and apparatuses for indicating the presence of a threshold directional differential pressure between separated adjacent spaces. An inclined conduit contains at least one movable element that indicates whether the pressure difference between the two spaces is at least as high as a threshold pressure difference. The apparatus may provide a compact arrangement while allowing the movable element to have a suitable travel path length within the conduit.

An ultraviolet air sanitizer apparatus for HVAC systems has a frame defining a flow passage therethrough configured such that the frame rear is insertable into a return air inlet of the HVAC system. A sanitizer light is disposed within the flow passage. When activated, the sanitizer light emits germicidal ultraviolet light into the surrounding flow passage. A light baffle is disposed within the flow passage upstream of the sanitizer light and allows air flow but blocks light. An air pressure sensing switch is electrically connected to the sanitizing light and configured to measure air pressure differential across an air filter. When the air pressure differential is a predetermined value or greater, which is indicative of air circulation by the HVAC system, the switch turns on the sanitizer light. When the pressure differential is less than the predetermined value, the switch turns off the sanitizer light.
