| 20090133259 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING HYDROGEN GENERATOR - A method for manufacturing a hydrogen generator of the present invention is a method for manufacturing a hydrogen generator including: a water evaporator which has an inner tube, an outer tube, and a spacer disposed between the inner tube and the outer tube and in which a passage defined by the spacer is supplied with water and a raw material and heated to generate a material gas containing steam; and a reformer which has catalyst and in which the catalyst is heated to generate the material gas containing the steam from the material gas containing the steam, and the method includes: a disposing step (S | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090199402 | PIPE EXPANSION METHOD - A pipe expansion method capable of reducing an inspection range (area) of a heat-transfer pipe secured to a pipe plate and capable of shortening the time required for inspection is provided. In a pipe expansion method for securing a heat-transfer pipe inserted in a pipe hole of a pipe plate by expanding the pipe, after tightly fitting an outer circumferential surface of the heat-transfer pipe to an inner circumferential surface of the pipe hole from a primary-side end face to a secondary-side end face of the pipe plate, surface pressure between the heat-transfer pipe and the pipe plate is further increased in a predetermined range from the secondary-side end face, or close to the secondary-side end face, towards the primary-side end face. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20110197444 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING OIL COOLER FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - A method of manufacturing an oil cooler for an automatic transmission includes: forming an inner pipe and an outer pipe, welding the plate and cutting the pipe; forming a boss using a cold forged rod; forming a brazing washer; forming a flow hole in both ends of the outer pipe and pass oil through the flow hole; compressing and fixing the brazing washer and the boss; forming a heat radiation fin; assembling the outer pipe in which the boss is fixed, the heat radiation fin plated with copper, and the inner pipe; sequentially expanding the inner pipe at its both ends in the radial direction; closely contacting the heat radiation fin with the inner pipe and the outer pipe; mounting brazing rings in the both expanded ends of the inner pipe and mounting a workpiece of the oil cooler in a brazing jig. | 08-18-2011 |
| 20130074342 | HEAT EXCHANGER TUBE AND METHOD OF MAKING - A method of forming a tube for a heat exchanger includes advancing an expansion tool into a tube a first time and engaging the expansion tool with the tube to expand the tube diametrically at least partially along a length of the tube. The expansion tool is at least partially retracted from the tube. The expansion tool is advanced into the tube one or more subsequent times thereby engaging the expansion tool with the tube one or more subsequent times to further expand the tube at least partially along the length of the tube. | 03-28-2013 |
| 20150328726 | EXHAUST-GAS HEAT EXCHANGER - An exhaust-gas heat exchange, in particular for use in the exhaust tract of a motor vehicle, having a housing and having a first flow duct through which a first fluid can flow and which is received at its end regions in tube plates, wherein the first flow duct and the tube plates are surrounded by the housing in such a way that the housing forms a second flow duct through which a second fluid can flow, which second fluid can flow around the first flow duct, having a first diffuser which conducts the first fluid into the first flow duct and having a second diffuser which conducts the first fluid out of the first flow duct, characterized in that the exhaust-gas heat exchanger has, at at least one of its end regions, an at least partially encircling first flange which is formed in one piece with the exhaust-gas heat exchanger. | 11-19-2015 |
| 20160045947 | HELICAL COIL STEAM GENERATOR - A steam generator includes a lower integrated tubesheet and plenum (ITP) configured to receive feedwater and a first set of heat transfer tubes fluidly coupled to a plurality of stubs protruding from a first side of the lower ITP. A second set of heat transfer tubes fluidly couples to plurality of stubs protruding from a second side of the lower ITP. The first set of heat transfer tubes is coiled in a substantially clock-wise direction, and the second set of heat transfer tubes is coiled in a substantially counter-clockwise direction. The steam generator further includes an upper ITP fluidly coupled to the first and second set of heat transfer tubes, wherein the feedwater entering the lower ITP is converted to steam in the first and second sets of heat transfer tubes. The upper ITP is configured to transport the steam away from the steam generator. | 02-18-2016 |
