  • Integrated expander and motor-compressor assembly and closed loop cooling circuit comprising such an assembly
    Patent number: 12169081
    Abstract: The integrated expander and motor-compressor assembly comprises a compression section mounted between the two radial bearings on a trans-mission shaft, an expander cantilevered at a free end of the transmission shaft, a gas diffuser and a duct between the expander and a first radial bearing, the first radial bearing been the closest radial bearing to the expander. The gas diffuser diffuses a gas barrier which is sucked up by the duct.

  • Compressor unit with a variable aerodynamic profile
    Patent number: 9970461
    Abstract: A compressor unit is disclosed comprising at least a first motor driving in rotation at least one impeller of a compression stage, having at the outlet of the impeller a diffuser designed to centrifugally channel the gases coming from the impeller, and having a centripetal return channel downstream of the diffuser. The return channel includes at least one movable blade portion that, when moved, can vary a tangential component of the speed of the gases coming from the return channel.
