Appl. No.:

12/986657

Inventors:

AARON ALEXANDER - Oologah OK, US
LAQUINNIA LAWSON, JR. - Tulsa OK, US
RICHARD KING - Mobile AL, US

Assignee:

BRADEN MANUFACTURING, LLC - Tulsa OK

International Classification:

F02C 7/00
F15D 1/02

US Classification:

60 395, 137833

Abstract:

A gas turbine transition into an emission reduction catalyst is improved by adding properly curved surfaces so as to induce the Coanda effect. Such a surface allows for a reduction in pressure drop, shorter duct lengths, and elimination of some or all of traditionally used flow re-distribution devices.

Appl. No.:

13/358346

Inventors:

Aaron Alexander - Oologah OK, US
Laquinnia Lawson, JR. - Tulsa OK, US
Richard King - Mobile AL, US

Assignee:

BRADEN MANUFACTURING, LLC - Tulsa OK

International Classification:

F01N 13/08

US Classification:

60694

Abstract:

An exhaust duct for a gas turbine includes a transition section having an inlet for receiving turbine exhaust gas and a relatively larger outlet for interfacing with an auxiliary section housing an auxiliary device. The transition section has an interior surface extending from the inlet to the outlet. The interior surface has a segment generally adjacent to the inlet that is curved to induce a Coanda effect in which the turbine exhaust gas is caused to flow along said curved surface and to expand for distribution of the turbine exhaust gas over the auxiliary device in the auxiliary section.

Abstract:

According to an embodiment, a container containing fluid fitted with a cap that contains a one-way valve that is placed on the upstream opening of a dispensing nozzle. Dispensed fluid is expressed by compressing the flexible walls of the container which serves to open the dispensing nozzle valve. An air recovery vent will be placed in the cap in order to allow the internal and external pressure to equalize after the contents have been partially dispensed. The vent may optionally be channeled up into the container away from the container terminus by use of a small extension tube. The exit of the vent hole/tube contains another one-way valve which prevents backflow of fluid and air while allowing air to enter the container. Thus, the flow of product out of the container and air into the container are both unidirectional.
