Abstract: A heat exchanger is provided. The heat exchanger includes a configuration in which a heat transfer tube having a flat shape passes through a plurality of fins, and capable of securing drainage performance of condensed water retained on a surface of the heat transfer tube while improving a heat transfer rate, and further capable of suppressing an increase in ventilation resistance. The heat exchanger includes a heat transfer tube formed in a flat shape, and a plurality of fins, and a refrigerant flowing inside the heat transfer tube exchanges heat with air flowing between the plurality of fins. The fin includes a heat transfer expansion surface including a peak portion and a valley portion provided along an air flow direction, and a drain structure provided to overlap the heat transfer expansion surface.

Abstract: A heat exchanger and an air conditioner including the same. The heat exchanger includes a plurality of heat transfer tubes formed in a flat shape and configured to allow a refrigerant to flow in a vertical direction therein. The heat transfer tube includes a gas refrigerant region including one end connected to a refrigerant inlet port and another end disposed above the refrigerant inlet port; a two-phase refrigerant region including one end connected to the other end of the gas refrigerant region and another end disposed below a refrigerant outlet port; and a liquid refrigerant region including one end connected to the other end of the two-phase refrigerant region and another end connected to the refrigerant outlet port.

Abstract: A flame-retardant polycarbonate resin composition comprising 100 parts by weight of a polycarbonate resin and 0.001 to 5.0 parts by weight of at least one metal salt of an organic phosphoric acid ester represented by the following general formula [I] ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, independently from each other, represent an alkyl or aryl group which is substituted or unsubstituted by halogen, at least one of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is an aryl group and when both R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are aryl groups, they may be bonded to each other either directly or through an alkylene group or may form one fused ring, and M represents an alkali metal, and optionally 0.01 to 2.0 parts by weight of a micro-fibrous polytetrafluoroethylene.

Abstract: A slag disposal method for disposing of slags produced in furnaces during iron or steel making processes comprises employing the steps of magnetic sorting of masses of crude slags of a size greater than a value ranging between 300 to 500 mm obtained from the furnaces into slags rich in iron (above about 50 to 60 percent) and slags not rich in iron (below about 50 to 60 percent) and then applying a compressive force to the slags rich in iron to cause a coarse crushing and/or deformation to reduce the size and at the same time increase the iron content due to the breaking and separation of the slags from the metal. Further magnetic sorting and sieving after griding are provided to obtain concentrates having high iron content and to improve recovery efficiency.

Abstract: A shell structure of a heavy-load type rod mill including a barrel having an outlet port and with a plate thickness of t.sub.1, and a pair of trunnions having journals integrally formed thereon and with a plate thickness of t.sub.2, which trunnions are welded to the barrel. At the weld joining the barrel and the trunnion, the relationship between the plate thickness t.sub.1 of the barrel and the plate thickness t.sub.2 of the trunnion is t.sub.1 .ltoreq.t.sub.2 .ltoreq.2t.sub.1.

Abstract: A liner for the outlet port of a rod mill including a cylindrical body provided on the peripheral edge of an opening of the liner and projecting outwardly through the outlet port to prevent a rod from exiting the liner. The projecting length of the cylindrical body on the side close to the end portion of the barrel of the rod mill is preferably longer than that on the opposite side.
