  • Patent number: 5000004
    Abstract: A gas trubine combustor includes a main body with a combustion portion into which mixture of fuel and air is supplied. The gas mixture is burned through a catalytic reaction at a catalyst body arranged in the main body. The gas mixture passed through the catalyst body is introduced into a gas phase combustion portion provided in the main body. Between the catalyst body and the gas phase combustion portion is arranged a dividing unit which has a plurality of branch passages. The gas mixture passed through the catalyst body is divided by the dividing unit into a plurality of gas streams flowing through the branch passages.

  • Patent number: 4917176
    Abstract: A device for cleaning inner surfaces of heat exchanger tubes including a pair of main cleaning device bodies each having a moving device and a brush driving device disposed on opposite tube plates on which each opened end of the heat exchanger tubes is disposed. At least one of the pair of main cleaning devices is provided with a cleaning brush changing device, and each brush driving devices is made to correspond to the opened end of the same heat exchanger tube so that pressurized fluid is alternately supplied to each of the corresponding brush driving device from a pressurized fluid supplying unit and thereby the cleaning brush is moved. As a result of this, only one cleaning brush can clean a multiplicity of heat exchanger tubes. Furthermore, since a brush changing device is provided, the cleaning brush can be at need replaced by fresh one so that a further number of heat exchanger tubes can be cleaned.
