  • Publication number: 20240136081
    Abstract: Disclosed are galvanic cells and methods for treating a molten salt by use of the galvanic cells. The galvanic cell can provide anti-corrosion treatment and improved corrosion resistance via electrochemical and chemical reactions involving a corrosive impurity in a molten salt. Reaction products of the chemical and electrochemical reactions include hydrogen gas that can carry hydrogen isotopes evolved in the molten salt. The system can also include removal of the hydrogen gas from the molten salt and separation and recovery of tritium contained therein.

  • Patent number: 4125101
    Abstract: A fuel injection system for internal combustion engines that includes a gasoline metering valve to which gasoline is delivered by a fuel pump adapted to maintain a given pressure at a substantially constant rate of flow, and from which gasoline flows at a rate determined by the position of a throttle rod connected with the metering valve. The gasoline leaving the metering valve is conducted under pressure directly to a gasoline distribution block, where it is divided into substantially equal streams for delivery to discharge nozzles that project a narrow spray of finely divided gasoline droplets into the cylinder head intake chambers of the respective cylinders of the internal combustion engine.Each discharge nozzle and the spray it emits are positioned so that no substantial quantity of gasoline droplets in the narrow spray emitted by the nozzle will come into contact with the interior walls that define the cylinder's individual passage in the intake manifold and the associated intake port.
