Heat is recovered by means of an extraction/suction system, where the exhaust gas contains dust and/or particles. The heat is recovered as the exhaust gas being brought into contact with heat-recovery elements. Flow conditions and the design of the heat recovery elements are such that the deposits of the dust and/or particles on the surfaces stated are kept at a stable, limited level. In preferred embodiments, the heat-recovery elements have a circular or an extended, elliptical cross-section and may be equipped with fins or ribs. | 2014-03-13 |
| 20140069626 | TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A temperature control system used for a server system includes a liquid cooling module used for performing heat exchange for the server system through a first fluid and a second fluid, an air-cooled module used for providing a heat-dissipating airflow to the server system; and a control unit coupling the liquid cooling module and the air-cooled module. The control unit is used for adjusting a plurality of temperature adjustment parameters based on the environmental condition of the server system and thereby controlling the liquid cooling module and the air-cooled module at the same time, so as to make the liquid cooling module and the air-cooled module perform a heat-dissipating process according to the corresponding temperature adjustment parameters, and to reduce a environment temperature of the server system. The control unit is further used for adjusting the order of the temperature adjustment parameters based on a scheduling condition. | 2014-03-13 |
| 20140069627 | Resilient Downhole Flow Restrictor - A flow restrictor includes resilient flaps that can flex outward to an open position in response to fluid flow pressure and return to an initial position at which the resilient flaps restrict fluid flow more than in the open position. The resilient flaps can overlap and variably restrict fluid flow based on fluid flow pressure. The flow restrictor can be used on a transport tube to avoid a need for a packing tube in an alternative path system to deliver gravel packing slurry. | 2014-03-13 |
