  • Publication number: 20240151311
    Abstract: A butterfly valve 100 provided in a flow path for a first fluid flowing through a heat exchanger. The butterfly valve 100 includes: a valve plate 110 provided in the flow path; a shaft 120 for rotatably supporting the valve plate 110 in the flow path; and at least one valve plate auxiliary member 130 in contact with at least one plate surface 111a, 111b of the valve plate 100, the valve plate auxiliary member 130 having an extending portion 131 extending radially outwardly from an outer peripheral surface 112 of the valve plate 110. The valve plate auxiliary member 130 is made of a material having a lower Young's modulus than that of the valve plate 110.

  • Patent number: 11965468
    Abstract: A vehicle control system, a vehicle control method, and a storage medium are provided. A stopping process stops fuel supply to one or more stopping cylinders and supplies fuel to one or more remaining cylinders during a load operation of an engine. During execution of the stopping process, a compensating process compensates for a decrease in output of the one or more stopping cylinders due to the execution of the stopping process by increasing output generated by combustion in the one or more remaining cylinders. The system control circuit causes, when the engine rotation speed of the engine is the same, the output after being increased by the compensating process to decrease as a shaft torque of the crankshaft of the engine increases.
