An electrochemical reaction device, comprises: an anode to oxidize a first substance; a first flow path facing on the anode and through which a liquid containing the first substance flows; a cathode to reduce a second substance; a second flow path facing on the cathode and through which a gas containing the second substance flows; a porous separator provided between the anode and the cathode; and a power supply connected to the anode and the cathode. A thickness of the porous separator is 1 &#x3bc;m or more and 500 &#x3bc;m or less. An average fine pore size of the porous separator is larger than 0.008 &#x3bc;m and smaller than 0.45 &#x3bc;m. A porosity of the porous separator is higher than 0.5.

Electrochemical reaction device

A cooling device of an embodiment includes an evaporator, a condenser, a first connection pipe, a second connection pipe, and a third connection pipe. A refrigerant is vaporized in the evaporator by heat generated by a heating element. The condenser is located above the evaporator, and configured to condense the vaporized refrigerant by exchanging heat with an external fluid. The first connection pipe guides the refrigerant vaporized by the evaporator to the condenser. The second connection pipe guides the refrigerant condensed by the condenser to the evaporator. The third connection pipe connects a portion of the first connection pipe and a portion of the second connection pipe. A connection position between the third connection pipe and the first connection pipe is higher than a maximum liquid level height of the refrigerant in the second connection pipe during an operation.

Cooling device

According to one embodiment, a heat transport apparatus includes an evaporator, a cooling unit, a channel structure, and a heating mechanism. The evaporator vaporizes a refrigerant by heat generated by a heat-generating element. The cooling unit is provided above the evaporator and cools and condenses the refrigerant vaporized in the evaporator. The channel structure constitutes a channel through which the refrigerant circulates between the evaporator and the cooling unit. The heating mechanism heats the cooling unit and suppresses solidification of the refrigerant at the cooling unit.

Heat transport apparatus

According to one embodiment, an apparatus for loading vibration is provided. The apparatus for loading vibration has a contacting unit, a first vibration unit, a storage unit and a control unit. The contacting unit is capable of coming into contact with a biological body which pulsates or beats in a contact state of a first contact condition. The first vibration unit provides a self-excited vibration to the biological body through the contacting unit. The storage unit stores a second contact condition which synchronizes the self-excited vibration with the pulses or the beats. The control unit controls the contact state of the contacting unit so as to make the first contact condition become closer to the second contact condition.

Apparatus for loading vibration

An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes a processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain images in a time series including images of a blood vessel of a subject and correlation information indicating a correlational relationship between physical indices of the blood vessel and function indices of the blood vessel related to vascular hemodynamics, calculate blood vessel morphology indices in a time series indicating morphology of the blood vessel of the subject, on a basis of the images in the time series, and identify a function index of the blood vessel of the subject, by using a physical index of the blood vessel of the subject obtained from the blood vessel morphology indices, on a basis of the correlation information.
