Abstract: A processing system for dynamic analysis of hydraulic performance in a computerized fire sprinkler system model is provided to aid sprinkler designers in auto-peaking the system when at least one of the elements are in a flowing hydraulic state, the system comprising storing in a first memory means a drawing view of a fire sprinkler system, the drawing comprised of a plurality of changeable interengageable system elements, representational of an actual construction, for selective assembly together, the elements having distinctive dimensional and operational properties including an open, closed or automatic flow, providing a remote area boundary for dynamic movement through the view, the remote area in operative connection with the automatic property, finding any one of the elements having an open-flow property, locating the boundary in the view, finding any one of the elements within the boundary having an automatic flow property, calculating a hydraulic result for at least one element using the open or autom

Abstract: Disclosed is a controlled pressure melt spinning method of rapidly solidifying alloys to obtain a solid alloy of controlled mean crystallite size, narrow crystallite distribution, and a fine grain microstructure.
