Patents by Inventor Dominique Moulinier

Dominique Moulinier has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Jet spouted bed type reactor device having a specific profile for CVD
    Patent number: 10068674
    Abstract: The invention relates to a jet spouted bed reactor, comprising a cylindrical area, a gas injection pipe at the base of the cylindrical area, and a transition area, connecting the upper end of the pipe to the base of the cylindrical area, this transition area having a convex profile in a plane extending through the axis (YY?) of flow of a fluid in the pipe.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 28, 2012
    Date of Patent: September 4, 2018
    Assignee: COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUE ET AUX ENERGIES ALTERNATIVES
    Inventors: Meryl Brothier, Dominique Moulinier, Philippe Rodriguez, Carine Ablitzer
  • Method and device for generating droplets over a variable spectrum of particle sizes
    Patent number: 9943874
    Abstract: A process for generating droplets with a modulatable droplet size distribution, comprises: making a stream of liquid strike a support with a given relative impact velocity; making said support vibrate at at least one vibration frequency; heating said support to a impact temperature such that the liquid film formed by the impact and made to vibrate is heated to a principal temperature to form in combination what are called principal droplets from said film; and transporting said droplets via a transfer/braking/sorting system to a liquid for precipitating the principal droplets, said transportation being carried out at a transportation temperature, all of these parameters, namely the relative impact velocity, the vibration frequency, the principal temperature and the transportation temperature allowing the droplet size of said formed principal droplets and the velocity of the latter to be modulated. A device allowing the process to be implemented is also provided.
