  • Patent number: 10408092
    Abstract: A heat exchanger is for use in an energy recovery system to be mounted on a vessel including an engine, a supercharger and an economizer, the heat exchanger including: a first heat section for heating a working medium by supercharged air from the supercharger; a second heat section for heating the supercharged air by steam generated by the economizer before the supercharged air flows into the first heat section; and a third heat section for heating the working medium having been heated in the first section by the supercharged air which is to be heated in the second section.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 2, 2016
    Date of Patent: September 10, 2019

  • Patent number: 10047638
    Abstract: Disclosed is a heat energy recovery system including: a heat energy recovery circuit that causes a working medium to circulate by means of a circulation pump to exchange heat with supercharged air from a supercharger via a first heater and exchange heat with steam from an exhaust-gas economizer via a second heater, in order to integrally drive a turbine and a generator; and a controller that performs stop control to stop the circulation pump based on the flow state of the steam in a first steam flow path that causes the steam to flow from the exhaust-gas economizer to a soot blower.

  • Publication number: 20070003102
    Abstract: A technique is disclosed involving embedding plural differing digital watermarks into one type of input moving image data, creating plural moving image data series, encoding the created moving image data series, generating a new moving image data series from the moving image data series based on addition ID information, and transferring the new moving image data series or transmitting the same via a network. At a reception side, the data series is decoded/reproduced, the reproduced image data are divided into plural regions, and a digital watermark is detected for each of the divided regions so that the addition ID information may be detected.
