Apparatus, methods, and/or systems relating to the delivery of a fluid through a passageway

摘要

A method of constructing an industrial machine such that, in operation, a supply of a fluid coolant through a hollow passageway is delivered at a reduced temperature, the method including the steps of: a) identifying at least a section of the hollow passageway that transports or is meant to transport the fluid coolant through a space that resides at a temperature that is significantly higher than a desired temperature of the fluid coolant; and b) through at least a majority of the identified section of the hollow passageway that transports the fluid coolant through the space that resides at the temperature that is significantly higher than the desired temperature of the fluid coolant, constructing the hollow passageway such that the outer surface of the hollow passageway has an emissivity coefficient less than about 0.1.
