Abstract: A rack and method of cooling wherein cold, sub ambient air is introduced into an electronic enclosure from below. In some embodiments a plurality of parallel arrange air movers pushes cold air to a series of ducts. Axial flow fans, or other types of fans, are secured to where cold air enters the ducting. Cold air is ducted to cabinets through at least one large plenums. The size of the duct allows for large amounts of cold air to move at low velocity and to travel through two parallel ducts into a large plenum. An even distribution of cold air is directed towards the exhaust through a screen. One side of the plenum is open to the equipment to be cooled. A screen evens out the pressure distribution of cold air along the length of the plenum prior to exhaust.

Abstract: A rack panel, rack enclosure, and system for cooling electronic components which are vertically mounted in a rack enclosure wherein the system has a front panel with two hollow internal ducts separated by an inner screen-like wall for more evenly distributing and delivering virtually equal amounts of cold air to each component with the rack enclosure. An air inlet, with one or more air movers adjacent thereto, introduces cold air into the front panel, evenly circulates it through the two ducts, and delivers it to the electronic components. A temperature sensor on the exhaust vents of the rear panel of the rack enclosure sensing the temperature of the cold air as it is discharged from the rack enclosure to ensure a continued sustainable degree of cold air is maintained throughout the rack enclosure.

Abstract: A mixed flow fan having a housing, a stator, and an impeller, with the housing having a downward extending skirt and an upper perimeter as air inlet and a lower perimeter as air exhaust, a central hub with an outer edge, and a plurality of struts connected to the upper perimeter of the skirt and to the outer edge of the central hub. The outer edge of the central hub may be concave or curvilinear or conical. A stator cup which houses the motor is connected to the outer wall of the impeller and to the central hub.

Abstract: A Ni-based first material is deposited on a substrate by electroless plating. A Zn-based second material is deposited on the first material. One or more components of at least one of the first and second materials are diffused into the other. The diffusion creates a ZnNi alloy layer enhancing corrosion resistance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a zinc-diffused nickel alloy coating for corrosion and heat protection and to a method for forming such a coating. The coating method broadly comprises the steps of forming a plain nickel or nickel alloy coating layer on a substrate, applying a layer of zinc over the nickel or nickel alloy coating layer, and thermally diffusing the zinc into the nickel alloy coating layer. The coating method may further comprise immersing the coated substrate in a phosphated trivalent chromium conversion solution either before or after the diffusing step. The substrate may be a component used in a gas turbine engine, which component is formed from a steel material.
