The rotor includes a rotor ring with an annular surface and, starting from the rotor ring, an arrangement of inwardly extending turbine blades, thereby defining a free-standing axis of rotation. The housing defines an inlet portion with a first front-side cutting edge which delimits a circular inlet opening, from which extends an inlet-side guide surface to the rotor, and an outlet portion with an outlet opening, between which a flow path passing the rotor ring can be formed. It is provided that the inlet opening has a free inlet cross-section which is maximally as large as a cross-sectional area delimited by the rotor ring.

A wind turbine is described which includes a support structure, a rotor which includes one or multiple rotor blades and which is situated on the support structure so that the rotor is freely rotatable about a rotation axis, and a generator which is connected to the rotor and which converts the wind energy into electrical energy when the rotor is rotating. The support structure includes a stationary ring on which the rotor is rotatably guided and on which the stator of the generator is situated.

A generator module includes a housing arranged for mounting to a rear face of an internal combustion engine, a generator stator fixed in the housing, a generator rotor arranged radially inside of the generator stator, and a bearing arranged to support a radial inside of the generator rotor on the housing. The generator rotor may include a rotor carrier and a plurality of stacked plates secured to the rotor carrier. The bearing may be at least partially radially aligned with the plurality of stacked plates.

The Conveyor1 will take the object vertically to the top of the device with speed control by the lifting unit (1), then the object will get transferred from Conveyor1 to Conveyor2. The Conveyor2 will carry the object to the free falling unit (2) area with speed control. The object will fall in the free falling area with the help of permanent magnets; the object will get attached on Conveyor3, which will give drive to the rotating wheel. The object gets detached from Conveyor3 and gets transferred to Conveyor4. Conveyor4 will take the object back to Conveyor1 with speed control. The falling object is again carry on the top and same cycle is continuously rotating the rotational wheel which further generate the electricity. By such way multiple devices are synchronized to give continuous power to the respective rotating wheel of each machine, wherein one main shaft passing through the rotating wheel of multiple machines.

The present disclosure is directed to a system and a method for hydride generation. In some embodiments, the system includes an assembly for introducing hydride generation reagents into a mixing path or mixing container, where the assembly includes first chamber configured to contain a first hydride generation reagent and a second chamber configured to contain a second hydride generation reagent. A first plunger is configured to translate within the first chamber and cause a displacement of the first hydride generation reagent, and a second plunger is configured to translate within the second chamber and cause a displacement of the second hydride generation reagent. The assembly further includes base coupling the first plunger and the second plunger together.

A high efficiency induced-flow wind power system engages and converts both potential (to-pull) and kinetic (to-push) wind energies to effective airflow power, delivering induced (accelerated) airflow power in a controlled flow field to a turbine/rotor, impelling a 360-degree torque on the turbine/rotor and, as a result, extracting (converting) more than 80% of the combined effective wind power to mechanical power. The induced push-pull effect results in higher efficiency wind-to-mechanical power extraction (conversion). The induced-flow wind power system can be coupled with (i) an electrical generator, inverter/converter for generating AC and DC power, (ii) pressurized vessel for effective energy storage (iii) a pressurized structure, such as an air supported structure, to ensure its structural integrity. The Induced-Flow Wind System embodiment comprises: a passive-flow nozzle, an active-flow nozzles and a turbine encased in housing interposed within the flow field of the active-flow nozzle and coupled with an electrical generator or a compressor.

An apparatus includes a pipeline-transport compressor configured to receive, in use, a product stream from a pipeline. The cooler unit is configured to receive, in use, a cooler air intake from the pipeline-transport compressor. This is done in such a way that removal of the cooler air intake by the cooler unit, in use, moves the cool air across the cooler bundles and out through the cooler unit, and cools the pipeline-transport compressor. An air exhaust power generation unit is configured to generate, in use, electric power in response to the cooler unit, in use, urging, at least in part, the cooler air intake toward, at least in part, the air exhaust power generation unit.

An air cycle machine for extracting bleed air from a gas turbine engine of an aircraft is provided. The air cycle machine extracts a stream of low pressure bleed air and a stream of high pressure bleed air from a compressor section of the gas turbine engine. The air cycle machine includes a compressor that receives the stream of low pressure bleed air and a turbine that receives the stream of high pressure bleed air. The stream of high pressure bleed air is expanded as it drives the turbine, and the stream of low pressure bleed air is compressed by the compressor. The resulting streams of bleed air are substantially the same pressure, such that they may be merged using a junction into a combined bleed air stream having a temperature and pressure suitable for use by a variety of aircraft accessory systems, such as an environmental control system. The air cycle machine may further power or be powered from an electrical storage device or generator on the fan.

In one embodiment, a plant includes a combustor to burn fuel with oxygen from an inlet guide vane (IGV) to generate a gas for a gas turbine (GT), and a heat recovery steam generator to use an exhaust gas from GT to generate steam for a steam turbine (ST). An apparatus controls an IGV opening degree to a first degree and a GT output value to a value larger than a first value between GT start and ST start. The first value is an output value at which exhaust gas temperature can be kept at a first temperature that depends on ST metal temperature, when the IGV opening degree is the first degree. The apparatus increases the IGV opening degree from the first degree based on steam temperature or the GT output value, while the GT output value is controlled to the value larger than the first value.

The present disclosure is directed to an electric generator and motor transmission system that is capable of operating with high energy, wide operating range and extremely variable torque and RPM conditions. In accordance with various embodiments, the disclosed system is operable to: dynamically change the output “size” of the motor/generator by modularly engaging and disengaging rotor/stator sets as power demands increase or decrease; activate one stator or another within the rotor/stator sets as torque/RPM or amperage/voltage requirements change; and/or change from parallel to series winding configurations or the reverse through sets of 2, 4, 6 or more parallel, three-phase, non-twisted coil windings with switchable separated center tap to efficiently meet torque/RPM or amperage/voltage requirements.
