Abstract: A hydrodynamic retarder having a rotor and a stator or a rotor and an oppositely running rotor, which together form a toroidal working chamber to filled with working medium, in order to transmit a torque by means of a hydrodynamic working chamber working medium circuit. An external working medium circuit has a heat exchanger that discharges heat from the working medium. The external working medium circuit is connected by a working medium inlet and a working medium outlet to the working chamber. The working medium inlet and outlet open to the working chamber at a torus outer diameter of the working chamber. A working medium feed line opens into the external working medium circuit. A core ring filling line is connected in working-medium-conducting fashion to the working chamber. The core ring filling line opens into a core ring of the working chamber radially within the torus outer diameter.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a device for removing filtered substances from combustion processes from a filter under laboratory conditions. In some implementations, this comprises a mount for the filter and a rinsing means for rinsing out the filter in its mount by means of a liquid. It may also relate to a method for removing filtered substances from combustion processes from a mounted filter under laboratory conditions in order to analyse the filtrate, wherein the filter is rinsed out in its mount with a liquid.
