  • Patent number: 10907668
    Abstract: A flow damper including a cylindrical vortex chamber, a small flow-rate pipe connected to a peripheral plate of the vortex chamber along a tangential direction, a large flow-rate pipe connected to the peripheral plate with a predetermined angle with respect to the small flow-rate pipe, an outlet pipe connected to an outlet formed in a central part of the vortex chamber, and a pressure equalization pipe with respective ends being connected to the peripheral plate on opposite sides of the outlet and at positions closer to a connection portion between the small flow-rate pipe and the large flow-rate pipe than positions facing each other, putting the outlet therebetween. The pressure equalization pipe is arranged with at least a part thereof is located at a higher position than a top plate of the vortex chamber, and an outgassing hole is provided at an uppermost part of the pressure equalization pipe.

  • Publication number: 20200398215
    Abstract: A water treatment tank includes: a tank body including a bottom surface extending in a horizontal direction; an overflow wall partitioning the inside of the tank body into an upstream tank into which treatment water having absorbed sulfur from an exhaust gas is introduced and a downstream tank into which the treatment water overflowing from the upstream tank is introduced to flow therein; and an inclined part that is provided between the bottom surface of the tank body and the overflow wall in the downstream tank and is inclined downward as it goes from the overflow wall toward a downstream side inside the downstream tank to be connected to the bottom surface of the tank body.

  • Patent number: 10859092
    Abstract: An impeller includes a disk, a long blade that is disposed at an interval in a circumferential direction on a disk surface on a first side in an axial direction of the disk, and that reaches an outer peripheral edge of the disk, and a short blade that is disposed between the long blades adjacent to each other on the disk surface, and that reaches the outer peripheral edge. A circumferential length of the short blade gradually increases as the short blade faces outward in the radial direction, and a circumferential length of the long blade in the outer peripheral edge is smaller than the circumferential length of the short blade in the outer peripheral edge.

  • Publication number: 20120171030
    Abstract: Provided is an exhaust scroll capable of reducing mixing loss caused by fluid swirling inside the exhaust scroll and fluid flowing thereinto, while collecting and discharging the fluid which has flowed. The exhaust scroll is provided with a scroll body (11) in which a space having a substantially annular cross section is formed and a connecting portion (12) which connects an exhaust passage (8) with the scroll body (11) to forcibly decelerate fluid (A) discharged from the exhaust passage (8), thereby allowing the fluid (A) to flow into the scroll body (11).
