A dust filter is configured to filter air drawn into a vehicle canister. The dust filter includes a filtration member and a case. The case has an inner chamber for accommodating the filtration member. The case has a drainage port for draining liquid that has infiltrated the inner chamber. The drainage port is at least one opening formed at the bottom of the inner chamber. The case includes a cover that covers the drainage port. The cover has an outlet that opens to the outside. The outlet is lower than the drainage port. At least one baffle plate is disposed inside the cover. The baffle plate has a slope on the side of the baffle plate facing the drainage port, thereby forming a ramp.

A control system for turbine systems configured to utilize an intelligent model of particulate presence and accumulation within turbine systems to address engine maintenance, erosion, corrosion, and parts failure mitigation is disclosed. The control system may build an intelligent model of fluid flow based on the data value measured by at least one sensor and based on a database of known data values to provide an estimation of amount of ingress of air intake particles into the turbine system, fouling within the turbine system, erosion of at least a portion of the turbine system, and performance degradation rate of the turbine system.

A bodyshell structure for an electrically driveable motor vehicle includes a ventilation channel formed by a plurality of structural components that are connected to one another and delimit respective cavities. The ventilation channel has at least one inlet opening for inflow of a venting gas that emerges from a drive battery of the motor vehicle in an event of a thermal event and has at least one outlet opening via which the venting gas is dischargeable into a surrounding of the motor vehicle. A venting gas treatment device is disposed inside the ventilation channel where the venting gas and/or particles entrained with the venting gas is treatable by the venting gas treatment device.

A filter element including a filter media, an end cap, and a baffle. The filter media is configured to be secured within a housing. The housing includes an inlet configured to accept a fluid for filtering and the filter media including a circumferential outer surface. The end cap is positioned at and coupled to one end of the filter media. The baffle is positioned relative to the filter media at a position such that, when the filter element is correctly installed within the housing, the baffle is proximate the inlet of the housing. The baffle extends around only a portion of the circumferential outer surface of the filter media in a radial direction.

In an internal combustion engine, the cylinder block includes a first blowby gas passage and a first oil return passage. The cylinder head includes a second blowby gas passage connecting the first blowby gas passage with a connection passage connected with a gas-liquid separator, an oil return chamber separated from a valve operating chamber and the second blowby gas passage by first and second partition walls, respectively, and provided with a first oil return hole connected with the gas-liquid separator, and a second oil return passage connecting the valve operating chamber with the first oil return passage. The first partition wall is formed with a second oil return hole connecting the oil return chamber with the valve operating chamber. The second partition wall is formed with a ventilation hole connecting the oil return chamber with the second blowby gas passage at a higher position than the second oil return hole.

The compressor is inferiorly provided with a discharge nozzle and with shoes which are seated and affixed against a support plate, incorporated to the air-oil reservoir and provided with an admission hole aligned with the discharge nozzle, and with a tubular column, incorporated to the air-oil reservoir and open to the interior of the latter. The air-oil reservoir further presents: an inner housing receiving a thermostatic valve, connected to the interior of the air-oil reservoir and also to the compressor and to an oil radiator, as a separate device, through cold oil outlet and hot oil outlet nozzles of the air-oil reservoir; openings for the direct coupling of an oil filter and of an air-oil separating filter; and an end housing lodging a minimum pressure valve.

A diffuser for a jet pump of a separator comprises an inlet defining a first flow area; an outlet in fluid communication with the inlet through which fluid exits the diffuser, in which a flow path extends from the inlet to the outlet, and in which the outlet defines a second flow area greater than the first flow area so that a velocity of fluid flowing through the inlet is greater than a velocity of fluid flowing through the outlet; and a communication port extending through a wall of the diffuser with an inlet in communication with an interior of the diffuser and an outlet in communication with an exterior of the diffuser, in which the communication port inlet is between the diffuser inlet and the diffuser outlet, so that contaminants separated from the fluid stream are removed through the communication port.
