Abstract: A torque transmission system (20) for transmitting torque from a prime mover (22) along a drivetrain includes a clutch device (28) configured to accept a torque input from the prime mover, an intermediate pulley (32), a belt (30) operatively engaged between the clutch device and the intermediate pulley, an angle gearbox (36) configured to change a spatial orientation of torque transmitted between an input and an output of the angle gearbox, a driveshaft (34) operably engaged between the intermediate pulley and the angle gearbox, and an output device (38) configured to accept a torque output from the angle gearbox. The clutch device is located upstream from the intermediate pulley and the angle gearbox along the drivetrain.

Abstract: A system for transferring heat from an ethanol and water vapor stream is disclosed as having a first heat exchanger, a valve system coupled to first heat exchanger and a first tank, a second tank coupled to the valve system, a second heat exchanger coupled to first tank and second tank, and a pipe line connecting the second tank to the first heat exchanger. A method for transferring heat is provided and involves intermittently cooling a first media, transferring heat from the first media to a second media, and directing the second media to a valve system. The valve system directs a flow of the second media to the first tank when a temperature of second media is above a temperature set point and directs the flow of the second media to the second tank when the temperature of second media is below the temperature set point.
