  • Patent number: 9163529
    Abstract: A boiler system includes a boiler group provided with a plurality of boilers and a controller for controlling a combustion state of the boiler group. The boiler group has a varied steam flow set to indicate reserve power corresponding to expected increase of a steam flow due to a sudden variation of a required load, and an increase minimum load factor set to indicate a load factor for output of a steam flow corresponding to the required load only from the combusting boilers with no increase of the number of combusted boilers. The controller increases the number of the combusted boilers when a total reserve steam flow of the combusting boilers is not more than the varied steam flow and the load factor of each of the combusting boilers is not lower than the increase minimum load factor.

  • Patent number: 8277207
    Abstract: A two-stage screw compressor has a low-pressure stage screw compressor and a high-pressure stage screw compressor integrally constructed. Compression space is formed by a male rotor and a female rotor, and operation gas is fed for compression to the compression space. A method of supplying lubrication oil prevents degradation of volumetric efficiency caused by return of lubrication oil, coming from a bearing and a shaft sealing device, to the low-pressure stage screw compressor. As a result, refrigeration capacity is improved and the amount of the lubrication oil is reduced.
