Abstract: A top-blowing lance nozzle is configured to freely switch an adequate expansion condition so as to control an oxygen-blowing amount and a jetting velocity independently of each other without requiring a plurality of lance nozzles or a mechanically movable part. A lance nozzle is configured to blow refining oxygen to molten iron charged in a reaction vessel while a gas is blown from a top-blowing lance to the molten iron. One or more blowing holes for blowing a working gas are on an inner wall side surface of the nozzle, at a site where the lance nozzle has a minimum cross-sectional area in a nozzle axis direction or at a neighboring site of the site.

Abstract: A control apparatus, which controls a drive motor that drives a rotor installed in an electrical aircraft, instructs the drive motor to selectively operate in at least two motor-control modes. The at least two motor-control modes include a flying motor-control mode for causing the electrical aircraft to fly, and a cleaning motor-control mode for cleaning the rotor. The control apparatus controls, in the cleaning motor-control mode, the drive motor such that a rotational frequency of the drive motor is lower than a predetermined human-audible frequency range.
