A method is described for the non-intrusive determination of the bed level in two phase fluid bed reactor using wall vibrations of the reactor, which involves: measuring wall vibrations of the structure of the reactor at several vertically-separated positions along the wall thereof, and determining the power spectrum as a function of frequency. The area of the power spectrum under a resonance peak...

A method is described for the non-intrusive determination of flow anisotropy through the cross-section of a two phase fluid bed reactor. The method involves measuring wall vibrations of the reactor at several positions spaced circumferentially around the reactor, and determining the power spectrum as a function of frequency. The area of the power spectrum under a resonance peak for each position i...

Method for the mechanical surface treatment of bright metal sheets, an adhesive foil being placed at least on one surface of the sheet and pressed against the surface of the sheet by a roll, thereby being deformed with the sheet, and the imprint of the deformed foil is impressed in the sheet surface.

21 CORPS DE DISTRIBUTEUR, DISTRIBUTEUR COMPORTANT UN TEL CORPS ET DOME CORRESPONDANT L'invention a pour objet un corps de distributeur (1) comprenant un boîtier 13), qui comporte un fond (4) et une paroi latérale (5), et un dôme (2) fixé de façon étanche à l'extrémité supérieure 12 de ladite paroi latérale (5) du boîtier (3), caractérisé en ce que ce dôme (2) est en matière plastique et comporte u...

Systems for storing and dispensing gases. The gas storage systems are two-phase gas/solid or gas/liquid, or three-phase gas/liquid/solid, functioning by reversible sorption. In gas storage systems having a solid phase, use is made of a polymeric material, preferably a hydrogel, having microvoids functioning as interstitial stores for gas. Reversible gas sorption in the microporous polymer is impro...

36583 Construction elements each consist of a central section and two external sections, with the central section having, in addition to flat top and bottom surfaces, two parallel side walls and four, shorter side walls. Pairs of the angled side walls would intersect at right angles were they to extend to the two external sections. The two external sections are cylindrical in shapes and of a heigh...

2049019 9010035 PCTABS00002 The present invention provides curable gel compositions and also cured gel compositions which possess unexpectedly superior combinations of physical properties and aging resistance. These compositions are particularly useful for environmentally protecting substrates especially electrical conductors, connectors and splices and for sealing around jacketed cables, for exam...

Fibre material (9, 11) is fed to a pair of centrifugal spindles (6, 7) from separate delivery points (4, 5) of a drawing frame (1). After each centrifugal spindle (6, 7) is filled with partially twisted thread material, the supply of fibre material (9, 11) is interrupted until the start of the next delivery phase and the material is transferred to a spooling arrangement (8) and is given a final tw...

Composite material for plain bearing elements of a type having a metallic backing and an overlay of aluminum-based bearing material applied on the back. The bearing material is a heterogeneous aluminum alloy having a matrix containing in addition to aluminum, nickel, manganese, and copper. There is dispersed within the matrix, segregated tin or segregated lead, in an amount of from 0.5% to 20% by ...

A method for optimizing thermodynamic performance of a steam turbine by matching a last stage blade flow area to condenser pressure by adjusting blade angular orientation to set gaging to an optimum value. The method is also used to correct incidence by setting blade angular orientation upstream of the last blade row.

A microwave oven comprises a high-voltage transformer (1) for feeding a magnetron. The secondary winding (3) of the transformer (1) is fastened on a mounting plate (5) and arranged between the primary winding (2) and an adjacent side wall (4) of the appliance, so that the secondary winding screens the primary winding from the side wall and thereby may inhibit issue of cracks when switching of the ...

Staple fibre yarn is produced by imparting twist to thread material (2) in two stages by means of a drawing frame, a centrifugal spindle (6) and a spooling unit. During the first stage a fibre strand passes from feed point (1) to spindle (6) to be partly spun. During the second stage the partly spun thread is withdrawn from the spindle which continues to rotate thereby completing the spinning proc...
