Abstract: A generating system is presented that includes a steam generator, a separator coupled to the generator, a supply providing feed water, a start-up system coupled to and receiving the feed water, and a recirculation system coupled to the start-up system. The steam generator operates in a plurality of operating modes. In one mode the steam generator generates a flow of steam and fluid. The separator separates the flow into components of steam and fluid. The recirculation system receives the feed water from the start-up system and provides a required flow to the steam generator during at least one mode. The recirculation system includes an ejector. The ejector induces a portion of the fluid from the separator into the recirculation system, mixes the induced fluid with the feed water to provide a recirculation flow, and the recirculation system provides the required flow to the steam generator including the recirculation flow.

Abstract: The invention provides a temporary portable shelter for an individual or individuals from the severe effects of a tornado or hurricane. The Enclosure consists of an case, having six sides, which is constructed of polycarbonate thermoplastic of extremely high quality and of superior strength and endurance. The Enclosure has a hinged door with door latch assemblies that may be operated from the inside. It has ventilation padding to protect the individual from injury while within the Enclosure. It may be bolted to the floor. Light may enter the Enclosure and a person inside may see out of the Enclosure. The Enclosure may also be outfitted with reflective tape detailing or a battery operated strobe light to help emergency staff quickly locate victims of severe weather conditions.
