Abstract

A multi-stage flash degaser is incorporated in an energy conversion system having a direct-contact, binary-fluid heat exchanger to remove essentially all of the noncondensable gases from geothermal brine ahead of the direct-contact binary-fluid heat exchanger in order that the heat exchanger and a turbine and condenser of the system can operate at optimal efficiency.

Multi-stage flash degaser

Patent Rapier, Pascal M. (Richmond, CA)

A multi-stage flash degaser (18) is incorporated in an energy conversion system (10) having a direct-contact, binary-fluid heat exchanger to remove essentially all of the noncondensable gases from geothermal brine ahead of the direct-contact binary-fluid heat exchanger (22) in order that the heat exchanger (22) and a turbine (48) and condenser (32) of the system (10) can operate at optimal efficiency.

Method and apparatus for dynamically controlling each stage of a multi- stage pipelined data unit

Patent Denman, M.A.; Talgam, Y.

This patent describes, in a pipelined data unit for use in a data processor, a data unit. It comprises: an input stage for selectively receiving input operands from the data processor; a plurality of operation stages for performing selected operations on the input operands to produce an output result, at least a first one of the operation stages, coupled to the input stage, for performing its respective operation in one of a plurality of ways as selected by a value of a control signal; an output stage, coupled to at least a last one of the operation stages, for selectivelymore »« less
Pumping stage for multi-stage centrifugal pump

Patent Erickson, J.W.

An improved diffusion bowl and pumping vanes of a centrifugal pump stage are employed in axially stacked, multi-stage pumps for use in oil wells. The wall thickness of the annular casing portion of the diffusion bowl element is reduced to a minimum consistent with the axial loading on the pump stage and the impeller vanes are radially extended to terminate closely adjacent the minimum wall thickness portion of the casing, thereby significantly increasing the pumping pressure developed by the stage without reducing the efficiency of the stage.
Power plant Utilizing Multi-Stage Turbines

Patent Bronicki, L. Y.

A power plant includes a steam boiler that delivers a rated amount of high-pressure steam at rated temperature and pressure to a steam turbine having a high-pressure stage and at least one low-pressure stage driven by low-grade steam exhausted from the high-pressure stage. A main generator, driven by the steam turbine, furnishes electricity to a variable load. When the load decreases below rated value, the boiler operation is maintained, but low-grade steam exhausted from the high-pressure stage of the turbine is diverted from the low-pressure stage to a heat store large enough to accumulate heat during the time that themore »« less
