A tilting-pad-type journal bearing includes a rotary shaft, a plurality of tilting pads, a housing, a fixing structure, an oil inlet, and side plates. The plurality of tilting pads support the rotary shaft in a radial direction. The housing accommodates the plurality of tilting pads inside. The fixing structure fixes a circumferential relative position with respect to the housing while allowing the tilting pads to swing. The oil inlet supplies lubricating oil between the tilting pads and the rotary shaft. The side plates are provided on both sides of the housing in a rotational-axis direction.

Tilting-pad-type journal bearing

An energy operation system, apparatus, and method capable of stably supplying energy and providing adjustment control based on prediction precision and planning precision for energy supply and demand. An energy operation apparatus includes a demand predictor, planner, evaluator, and solution quality controller. The demand predictor predicts demand and/or a power generation amount of future energy in a management area. The planner prepares a future energy supply plan in the management area based on a prediction. The evaluator evaluates supply and/or demand conditions including at least one of future weather in the management area, energy demand in the management area, a demand density and/or a generation density of future energy in the management area. The solution quality controller controls the quality of at least one of a prediction solution of the demand predictor and the energy supply plan of the planner based on an evaluation result from the evaluator.

Energy operation apparatus, method, and system

A motor with an inner fan includes a rotor rotating with a shaft, a stator opposing the outer peripheral surface of the rotor, an end ring connected to the rotor, stator wiring connected to the stator, a fan rotating with the shaft through a sleeve, a fan guide opposing the tip end of the blade outer periphery of the fan, and a frame storing the rotor, the stator, the fan, the fan guide, the end ring, and the stator wiring. The rotor includes an axial duct penetrating the rotor in the axial direction of the rotor and a radial duct communicating with the axial duct and penetrating the rotor radially from the inside to the outside of the rotor. The fan is an inner fan arranged inside the frame, the inner fan is of a diagonal flow type, and the discharge direction of the inner fan is the inward direction.
