  • Patent number: 10760475
    Abstract: An inlet tank for a charge cooler comprises a manifold portion, a turbocharger inlet port, and a supercharger inlet port. The turbocharger inlet port is in fluid communication with a compressor wheel of a turbocharger and the manifold portion of the inlet tank. An opening is formed in a sidewall of the turbocharger inlet port. The supercharger inlet port is in fluid communication with an electric supercharger and intersects the turbocharger inlet port. The opening formed in the sidewall of the turbocharger inlet port provides fluid communication between the supercharger inlet port and the turbocharger inlet port. A valve element selectively determines when a flow of air from the supercharger inlet port enters the turbocharger inlet port through the opening based on a pressure differential present between the air exiting the compressor wheel of the turbocharger and the air exiting a compression mechanism of the electric supercharger.

  • Publication number: 20080131324
    Abstract: An apparatus, process, coating, and filter for the accurate measurement of total mercury concentration in flue gas. In one aspect, the concentrations of both elemental and oxidized mercury are preserved by the apparatus for analysis. Accordingly, embodiments of the present apparatus and process can be used to determine regulatory compliance or for process control measurement.

  • Publication number: 20070092976
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, systems, and apparatus for continuously monitoring particulates emitted from an emissions source. In a particular embodiment of a disclosed system, the system includes a sample inlet and diluent inlet. The system further includes a mixing chamber in communication with the sample inlet and the diluent inlet. An aerosol sample from the emissions source and diluent from the diluent inlet, received through the respective sample and diluent inlets, are mixed in the mixing chamber. The system includes an ambient dispersion simulator in communication with the mixing chamber. A diluted aerosol sample passes from the mixing chamber to the ambient dispersion simulator, where it is conditioned to produce a conditioned aerosol sample. The conditioned aerosol sample enters a continuous particle detector. The continuous particle detector is configured to make multiple distinct measurements without intervention by a user.
