Abstract: Heat exchanger output control device in a one-pipe heating network characterized in that a first T-branch, which is connected to a second T-branch interconnected to a primary outlet pipe connection of a primary outlet pipe to a heat source through a primary outlet, is connected to the primary inlet pipe connection through a primary inlet. The first T-branch is connected to a secondary supply pipe connection through a secondary supply pipe with a secondary supply temperature sensor, and the second T-branch is connected to a secondary return pipe connection through a secondary return pipe with an additional secondary return temperature sensor. An impeller of a pump is connected to a secondary circuit to pump the heat-transfer medium from the first T-branch through a heat exchanger back to the second T-branch, and to connected to a electrical motor provided with a control unit connected to secondary supply and return temperature sensors.

Abstract: The application is directed to a compressor having a housing with a fluid compression region to rotatably support a compressor rotor. The housing includes an inner wall formed as a thin wall positioned about the compression region and an outer wall spaced radially outward of the inner wall. A cooling chamber is formed in a space between the inner and outer walls. A rib formed on the inner wall projects into the cooling chamber to provide structural support and prevent thermal deformation of the thin inner wall during compressor operation.

Abstract: A compression system is disclosed having a compressor and a seal package including a non-contact seal and one or more radial shaft seals. In one form the non-contact seal is placed in proximity to a high pressure portion of the compressor. The offset of the non-contact seal from a shaft used to drive the compressor allows some amount of pressure reduced leakage air to pass. A radial shaft seal is coupled to the shaft axial aft of the non-contact seal on the other side of the compressor and oriented to discourage further passage of the leakage air past the radial shaft seal. A vent conveys leakage air to return to the compressor. A backup radial shaft seal can be used axially aft of the first radial shaft seal. A further radial shaft seal is disposed adjacent to the backup seal and oriented in the other direction to seal lubricant for a bearing.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for pulsation dampers for compressors include outer and inner chambers forming parallel flow paths.

Abstract: An aspect of the present disclosure includes a compressor system operable for compressing a working fluid. An integrated muffler and pressure pulse dampener (IMPPD) is operable for reducing pressure pulsations and attenuating noise in the working fluid. The IMPPD system includes an elongate axial passageway bounded by an outer wall having a plurality of apertures extending therethrough. A first portion of the working fluid enters through the central elongate section and a second portion of the working fluid passes through the pertures. The first and second portions of working fluid merge together downstream of the IMPPD inlet and cause a dampening of pressure pulsations propagating within the working fluid.

Abstract: A sectional sealing system for water-spray type screw rotor compressor that is configured to prevent the intermixing of coolant and working fluid from a compression chamber with lubricant used to lubricate at least a bearing system of a rotor. The sealing system may include suction side and discharge side sealing portions that are positioned about first and second shafts, respectively, of the rotor. The suction side sealing portion may include a first seal, a first labyrinth seal, and a second labyrinth seal, the first seal being in proximity to a suction side of the compression chamber. The discharge side sealing portion may include a plurality of first seals, a second seal, a first labyrinth seal, and a second labyrinth seal, the plurality of first seals of the discharge side sealing portion being in proximity to a discharge side of the compression chamber.

Abstract: Rotors for a rotary screw compressor having geometries that increase the efficiency of the compression process. The thermodynamic behavior of the rotors may be improved through an increase in the number of male and female lobes of the rotors and/or by an increased wrap angle, such as, for example, using wrap angles that exceed 360 degrees. By increasing the number of lobes, the rotors may have improved resistance to bending of the rotors that may otherwise occur when the temperature of the rotors is elevated and/or the rotor is utilized in relatively high pressure compression applications. The improved resistance to bending may allow the rotors to retain the relatively small size of the work spaces between intermeshed lobes of the rotors in which captured working fluid is being compressed.
