A pump driven coolant filling device and corresponding methods are configured for adding liquid coolant to a coolant circuit for removing heat. The device and methods may be used with liquid coolant circuits on electronic components, or in other industries that utilize liquid coolant. The device includes a base having an integrated pump for circulating coolant to the cooling circuit. A disposable container of coolant may be attached to the base using a threaded connection. The device includes a handle with a switch for controlling operation of the pump in some embodiments. A coolant circuit includes quick connect couplings configured for attachment to corresponding hoses extending from the base. During use, a cooling circuit may continue operation while adding coolant to the cooling circuit using the device.

A side channel compressor for compressing gas includes a housing, which forms a side channel, and an impeller drive arranged in the housing. The housing forms a feed channel fluidically connected to the side channel for feeding gas to the side channel and a discharge channel for discharging gas out of the side channel that is fluidically connected to the side channel. The feed channel branches into two separate channel arms each extending along a channel arm center axis. The housing is subdivided along a separating plane into first and second housing parts which sealingly lie against one another. The discharge channel is passed through between the two channel arms and either a first or second discharge channel part of the discharge channel, opens out on a connecting surface of the first or second housing part forming a gas outlet opening arranged apart from the separating plane.

A blower includes a fluid introducing box, a fan, a casing, a tubular portion disposed inside the fan to introduce a first fluid and a second fluid separately into the fan, and an upper end portion defining an inlet into the tubular portion. The casing has a suction port forming portion defining a suction port. The upper end portion is disposed between the suction port forming portion and the fluid introducing box. A gap passage is defined between the upper end portion and the suction port forming portion. At least one of the first fluid or the second fluid is introduced into the gap passage from a passage inlet and fluids through the gap passage toward a downstream portion. A distance between the upper end portion and the suction port forming portion in the axial direction at the downstream portion is less than that at the passage inlet.

The invention relates to a side-channel machine having a housing (4a), located in the housing (4a) a side-channel (28) for guiding a gas, and at least one gas inlet opening (34) which is formed in the housing (4a) and is fluidically connected to the side-channel (28). Furthermore, the side-channel machine has at least one gas inlet pipe (29a) which connects to the at least one gas inlet opening (34), The side-channel machine further comprises at least one gas outlet opening (33) and at least one gas outlet pipe (31a) which connects to the at least one gas outlet opening (33). Furthermore, the side-channel machine has an impeller that can be made to rotate in the housing (4a), with impeller blades, which bound impeller cells arranged in the side-channel (28), for delivering the gas in the impeller cells from the at least one gas inlet opening (34) to the at least one gas outlet opening (33). The side-channel machine further has at least one interrupter (39) arranged between the at least one gas inlet opening (34) and the at least one gas outlet opening (33).

There is disclosed a compressor comprising a case comprising a discharging part provided one side and configured to discharge a refrigerant, the case defining a predetermined space for storing oil; a drive part comprising a rotor coupled to an inner circumferential surface of the case and having coils wound there around and configured to generate a rotation magnetic field, and a rotor mounted in the rotor and configured to be rotatable by the rotation magnetic field; a shaft extending in a state of being coupled to the rotor; a compression part lubricated by the oil in a state of being coupled to the shaft and configured to compress and discharge the refrigerant; and a sealing part extending from the stator towards the compression part and configured to induce the winding of the coil.

A method of controlling a delivery pressure of an aircraft engine fuel system includes operating a rotodynamic fuel pump hydraulically connected to the fuel system to pump a fluid from an inlet of the rotodynamic pump and out of an outlet of the rotodynamic pump for delivery to the fuel system. The method further includes varying an angular relationship between the inlet and the outlet of the pump to control the delivery pressure. An aircraft engine fuel system and a rotodynamic pump are also described.

A hydration system including a fluid reservoir, a fluid path in communication with the reservoir, and a magnetic quick connect interposed in the fluid path is disclosed. A fluid delivery system for a hydration system is also disclosed that includes a magnetic quick connect interposed in a fluid delivery path of the delivery system. The magnetic quick connect can also be used in a wide variety of fluid delivery systems.
