Abstract: A system includes a trip manifold assembly (TMA). The TMA includes a plurality of block valves configured to receive a flow of fluid from a hydraulic power unit (HPU), and a plurality of solenoid valves configured to admit the flow of fluid to actuate the plurality of block valves, a plurality of dump valves, and a plurality of relay valves of the TMA. The plurality of solenoid valves is configured to admit a respective portion of the flow of fluid. The plurality of dump valves is configured to depressurize a trip header of the TMA as an output to operate a plurality of stop valves coupled to a turbine system. The TMA is configured to regulate the flow of fluid to control the operation of the plurality of stop valves as a mechanism to interrupt an operation of the turbine system.

Abstract: A waterfall system includes a water reservoir; and a waterfall assembly adjacent the water reservoir. The waterfall assembly includes a frame with a plurality of metal structural members connected together to define a hollow interior. At least one discharge nozzle is carried by and directed away from the frame. A plurality of facia members are coupled to an exterior of the frame. The facia members cover the frame but do not cover the at least one discharge nozzle.

Abstract: Novel paint formulations are described containing hectorite and phosphonate additives. The paint formulations are useful for a wide variety of paints and coatings particularly those are applied by spraying and are particularly useful for metallic coating formulations applied to automobiles.
