Acoustic abatement system for air cooled heat exchanger
A system configured to thermally regulate heat dissipation of a power plant system (e.g. steam turbine, gas turbine compressor, intercooler or other fluidic thermal source, etc.) and acoustically attenuate operation of an air cooled heat exchanger via sound reflection, sound absorption, sound diffraction, and/or active noise cancellation is disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes: a set of inner barriers; a base barrier disposed beneath the set of inner barriers; a set of outer barriers disposed about the base barrier and the set of inner barriers, the set of outer barriers including a top surface located above a bottom surface of the set of inner barriers; a heat exchanger fluidly connected to a power generation system and disposed within the set of inner barriers; and a set of fans disposed within the set of inner barriers and configured to form a flow of air through the set of inner barriers.

Tracing on a metal sheet intended for use in sheet metal work
A method of marking on sheet metal includes the following steps: preparing marking information in digital format; transmitting the marking information to a marking system's control unit also having a system for driving the sheet metal; a system for braking the sheet; and a marking head; and inserting the sheet metal into the braking system and into the drive system. The method further includes the steps of exerting a drive force on the sheet metal in a drive direction; exerting a braking force on the sheet metal opposing the driving force, so as to tension and flatten the sheet metal; and marking the marking information on the tensioned sheet metal using the marking head, set in a marking plane.

Steam Generator
A steam generator which may be mobile or stationary, which includes a fire box the outlet of which is connected to a cyclone section; the outlet of the cyclone section opens into a water tube steam boiler, with the connection between the cyclone section and the water tube steam boiler being such that the cyclone section substantially isolates the water tube steam boiler from the radiant heat of a fire in the fire box; a structural shell contains the fire box, cyclone section and water tube steam boiler and is arranged to both provide a containment vessel if the contained components fail in use and also to bear any of the structural loads applied to the generator in use.

Superheated steam boiler and method for operation thereof
A superheated steam boiler includes an inner tank system including a wet tank and a dry tank separated by an isolation member, an outer sleeve surrounding the inner tank system, wherein wet tank fluid openings allow the wet tank to be in communication with the outer sleeve, and dry tank steam openings in the dry tank allow the dry tank to be in communication with the outer sleeve, and a burner system within the inner tank system. The burner system includes a combustion/expansion chamber having spherical surfaces located in and fluidly isolated from the wet tank, a distribution chamber located in and fluidly isolated from the dry tank, heat tubes extending through the isolation member between the combustion/expansion chamber and the distribution chamber; and an exhaust tube extending from the distribution chamber and out of the inner tank system to exit the boiler.

Flue gas exhaust system, duct, industrial furnace, and plant
The present disclosure relates to a flue gas exhaust system for an industrial furnace, especially a steam reforming furnace. The flue gas exhaust system comprises a stack having an inlet opening for introducing flue gas into the stack and an outlet opening for exhausting flue gas. The inlet opening of the stack is in fluid connection to an outlet of a heat recovery system of the industrial furnace. Further, the fluid connection between said heat recovery system outlet and said stack inlet opening comprises a transition flue gas duct that at least partly embraces a part of the stack.
