Abstract: Cases for automobile air conditioners or car-loaded refrigerators are molded in an integrated structure of a body part and fixing parts by reaction injection molding from a mixture of a liquid A comprising 20-60% by weight of an aliphatic amine-based polyol, 30-60% by weight of a PO adduct of 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane and 15-40% by weight of an ordinary polyol and further containing a foam-controlling agent, a foaming agent and a catalyst and a liquid B comprising polyisocyanate as obtained through impingement.

Abstract: In moisture separator reheaters of a nuclear power plant, a control valve is mounted in a steam vent line of the plant to control the flow rate of vent steam in conformity with the load applied to the plant, to thereby avoid the occurrence of any instable flow phenomenon in the entire range of loads applied to the plant.

Abstract: A compressor has stationary and orbiting scroll members formed thereon with spiral wraps engaged with each other to define compression chambers which, when the orbiting scroll member is moved relative to the stationary scroll member, are radially inwardly moved while decreasing their volumes. Each scroll member is composed of a metallic base scroll member having a spiral wrap formed on one side and a coating layer of a resin compound formed on the said side of the scroll member, including the surfaces of the wrap. The coating layer is molded by placing the base scroll member in a mold cavity with a space left between the said side of the base scroll member and a mold part and by injecting the resin compound into the space.

Abstract: Condensation system for use in a power plant. The condensate system includes side stream condenser defining therein first and second hot wells. Condensate is delivered from the first to second hot well through a condensate feed line. Condensate is introduced from the condensate feed line into a tank through a first spill-over line. Condensate is supplied from the second hot well to the power plant through a main condensate feed line. Condensate is introduced from the main condensate feed line into the tank through a second spill-over line. Actuator is operative in response to signal from a level detector detecting level of condensate in the first hot well, to regulate opening degree of a supplementary feed valve in the supplementary feed line, to close one of first and second spill-over valves in the first and second spill-over lines, respectively, and to open the other spill-over valve.

Abstract: A side stream type condenser which has a first hot well for condensing steam exhausted from a turbine and storing the condensed water and a second hot well for storing the purified condensed water to prepare for water feed to a main system includes a partition plate for defining the two hot wells. The partition plate is formed with a weir portion so that part of the condensed water in the second hot well may overflow to keep a fixed water level. The weir portion is constructed in the shape of a labyrinth and is formed with a passage normally filled up with the condensed water, and a space in the upper part of the second hot well communicates with the upper space of the first hot well through this passage only. The condensed water in the first hot well is fed to a purifying system disposed outside, and is purified therein.

Abstract: A power generating plant which includes a direct contact-type heat exchanger. A low-boiling point medium such as freon and a heat-source medium such as heated oil, are injected from a lower portion of the heat exchanger so that the two media are brought into direct contact with each other thereby vaporizing the gaseous low-boiling point medium. The low-boiling medium acts as a working fluid while it circulates through a closed cycle of the plant which includes a turbine and a condenser. The heat-source medium, circulates in a closed cycle of the plant which includes a heating unit.

Abstract: A low boiling point medium power plant in which heated waste gas, such as furnace gas, geothermic steam, etc., is used as a heat source for heating an intermediate thermal medium by means of an indirect heat exchanger, and the intermediate thermal medium is used as a heat source for heating a turbine driving low boiling point medium by means of a direct heat exchanger. The indirect heat exchanger and the direct heat exchanger are rendered into a unitary structure and contained in a sealed housing together with a turbine, a generator and a condenser, whereby a compact overall size can be obtained in a low boiling point medium power plant.

Abstract: A small power plant utilizing waste heat wherein:an intermediate heat transfer medium being thermally stable and capable of lubricating bearings is interposed between a heat source and a turbine operating medium;heat of said intermediate heat transfer medium is taken off through a direct contact heat exchanger to change said turbine operating medium in phase from a liquid state to a gaseous state; anda portion of said intermediate heat transfer medium is supplied as the lubricant for the bearings of the turbine and generator.

Abstract: A method and system for effecting control governing of a steam turbine wherein the steam chamber of a first stage nozzle is divided into a plurality of steam compartments, control valves each connected to one of the steam compartments are individually operated for controlling the flow rate of steam introduced into the turbine, and the governing of the nozzle is effected by adjusting the flow rate of steam in accordance with a load. At low load, the degree of opening of the control valves is kept constant and the turbine is driven by steam of a reduced pressure by reducing the pressure of the steam at the inlet of the turbine so as to maintain, in a low load region, the volume flow rate of steam for a high load region. To cope with a change in the value of the load, the degree of opening corresponding to a predetermined change in the value of the load is set beforehand for each control valve.
