In-pipe inserts for piping systems and related methods are described herein. An example filter insert includes an end plate having a set of openings, a set of filter tubes extending from a first side of the end plate, and a set of support rods extending through respective ones of the channels of the filter tubes. The support rods extend through the openings in the end plate. The filter insert also includes a first retainer disposed on a second side of the end plate. The first retainer is coupled to the support rods at or near first ends of the support rods. The filter insert further includes a second retainer coupled to the support rods at or near second ends of the support rods opposite the first ends such that the filter tubes are clamped between the end plate and the second retainer.

An offshore wind turbine erected in a body of water includes a generator, a foundation, a nacelle, a tower having a first end mounted to the foundation and a second end supporting the nacelle, an electrolytic unit arranged above a water level and electrically powered by the generator to produce hydrogen from an input fluid, in particular water, and a fluid supply assembly for supplying the input fluid from a fluid inlet arranged below the water level to the electrolytic unit by means of a fluid connection, wherein the fluid supply assembly includes a cleaning unit configured to clean a build-up formed along an area extending through the inner part of at least a part of the fluid connection or formed at the fluid inlet.

A heat cycle system is a heat cycle system (1) using a working medium containing hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) that has a double bond in a molecule structure, the heat cycle system (1) having a compressor (10), a high-pressure side heat exchanger (12), a low-pressure side heat exchanger (14), an expansion mechanism (13), and an acid detection means (40) which is disposed in a discharge pipe (21) connecting the compressor (10) and the high-pressure side heat exchanger (12) and which detects acid generated by decomposition of the working medium in a heat cycle.

A compact strainer having a small pressure loss which is easily cleaned without inserting and detaching screens in and from a strainer casing. Front and rear end portions of a tubular casing are respectively provided with an inlet and an outlet. A barrier divides in two a linear channel between the inlet and the outlet along a flowing direction and is provided on the outlet side so as to face the inlet. A filter portion surrounding the inlet is constituted by the barrier, a pair of screens laterally opposing each other and arranged at a predetermined interval are provided, and the upper and lower portions of an inner surface of an outer wall of the casing, and upper and lower regions of the outer wall are provided with opening portions with lids which make the inside of the filter portion communicate with the outside.

Removable trap stations for hydrocarbon flowlines can be implemented as an apparatus. The apparatus includes a multi-phase fluid receiver body and a tank defining an interior volume. The fluid receiver body is configured to couple to a flowline carrying a multi-phase fluid including solids and liquids. The fluid receiver body includes an inlet portion configured to receive a portion of the multi-phase fluid including a portion of the solids flowing through the flowline into the receiver body. The fluid receiver body includes an outlet portion fluidically coupled to the inlet portion. The portion of the multi-phase fluid is configured to flow from the inlet portion to the outlet portion. The tank is fluidically and detachably coupled to the outlet and is configured to receive and retain the portion of the multi-phase fluid received through the inlet portion.

This specification discloses an in-line sight device sealed of a transparent tube surrounded by a tube body having a window. The tube body is attached to at least one flange via an attachment device which avoids any torque on the seal gasket. The flange and tube body are in direct contact with each other and the seal gasket is between the transparent tube and the flange having pressure applied in the same fixed volume and pressure each time the device is assembled.
