  • Publication number: 20240159719
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting a fluid mixture are provided. The system includes a pipeline assembly, a first valve, a gas chromatograph and a vacuum pump. The pipeline assembly includes a first pipeline and a second pipeline. The first valve is connected to the first pipeline and controls a flow of the fluid mixture obtained from a reaction in a reactor. The gas chromatograph is provided with a sample injection end and a sample output end, where the sample injection end is connected to an end of the first pipeline away from the first valve; and the sample output end is connected to the second pipeline. The vacuum pump is connected to an end of the second pipeline away from the gas chromatograph.

  • Patent number: 11965530
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the technical field of energy and power, in particular to an ejector with a core needle cooled by cooling medium. In the ejector with a core needle cooled by cooling medium, a cooling section is arranged between a stepping motor and a nozzle; the stepping motor, the cooling section and the nozzle are arranged coaxially, a partition plate and a sealing element are used to isolate the cooling medium from the primary flow medium, and the cooling medium is introduced into the cooling section to effectively cool the core needle therein, without affecting the adjustment function of the core needle for an area of the nozzle throat, so as to effectively improve the performance of the ejector. As the core needle is cooled, the adjustable ejector can be used in the primary flow fields with high temperature.

  • Publication number: 20230349943
    Abstract: This application discloses a fluid measuring method and device and electronic equipment. When a fluid flows in a target pipeline, high-speed cameras obtain a first sampling image set of a tracer particle cluster in the fluid passing a front end of the target pipeline and a second sampling image set of the tracer particle cluster passing a rear end of the target pipeline, thereby obtaining passing time distribution information of the tracer particle cluster passing through the target pipeline. A mean residence time of the fluid in the high-pressure target pipeline is obtained based on the passing time distribution information. In this way, the accuracy of non-intrusive online measurement of the mean residence time of the supercritical pressure fluid in the pipeline is improved.

  • Patent number: 11674724
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the technical field of heat pumps, in particular to an air source CO2 heat pump system for preventing an evaporator from frosting by using heat of a heat regenerator. The air source CO2 heat pump system mainly includes an air source heat pump system, a regenerative heat exchange tank and a cooling pump. Through the regenerative heat exchange tank, on the one hand, the temperature drop of regenerative heat of the system is further increased and throttling loss is reduced; on the other hand, the heat generated by the regenerative temperature drop is configured for heat storage used for defrosting, and configured for overheating temperature rise.

  • Patent number: 11552321
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the technical field of fuel cells, in particular to an anode recirculation system with an ejector for a solid oxide fuel cell. The heat exchanger is adopted in the anode recirculation system for the solid oxide fuel cell, the temperature of the fuel gas can be increased through heat exchange between the fuel gas as the primary flow medium and the cell exhaust as the secondary flow medium. The fuel at room temperature stored in the fuel tank is used as the cooling medium of the valve core needle to cool the valve core needle, so that it is ensured that a temperature of the stepping motor does not exceed a failure temperature.
