Abstract: The invention relates to an impact flow for wall sections including a plurality of impact openings which are arranged on a plane in a flat or curved support. The support is fitted it a distance from the wall section, and the impact surface of the wall section that is to be cooled is configured as a bulged relief. The bulge elements are arranged around the impact surface of the impact beam. The surfaces of the bulge elements facing the impact beam include two curves which blend into one another.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a cooled cast part for a thermal turbo machine by using a known casting process. Between a wax model of the cast part and a ceramic core, a wax seal is applied by hand above a step, only on an additional shoulder. The material that is created during the casting process at this point by the shoulder and the wax seal can be ground off without causing rough areas on the step to form. This simplifies the welding or soldering of a cooling plate to the step.

Abstract: The rate of aminolysis of butyrolactones is predictably adjusted by attaching a substituent having a known field effect value (F) to the alpha position before reacting the substituted buytrolactone with an amine. The aminolysis product is a gamma-hydroxy amide. The resulting materials are useful as the cross-linking agents in a variety of coatings and coatings processes.

Abstract: Ammonium biacetate is a useful material for heat storage applications such as culinary implements, medicinal uses, and solar energy storage.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for continuously cleaning a yarn moving through the device. A first scouring body has a yarn entrance and a yarn exit connected by a central cavity. Pressurized fluid is introduced through the yarn while the yarn is positioned within and moving through the central cavity.

Abstract: A screw compressor having an unloader valve with a movable valve member, the unloader valve being capable of indicating when the valve member is installed incorrectly. The valve member is manufactured such that if it is installed incorrectly it provides a leakage path sufficiently large to be detected during full load testing of the compressor. When the screw compressor fails the load test, the compressor is partially disassembled, and the valve is reinstalled in the proper orientation and the compressor is re-tested. The valve member leakage path is provided while maintaining low costs for production and assembly of the compressor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a cooled cast part (1) for a thermal turbo machine by using a known casting process. Between a wax model (10) of the cast part (1) and a ceramic core (6), a wax seal (8) is applied by hand above a step (7), only on an additional shoulder (9). The material that is created during the casting process at this point by the shoulder (9) and the wax seal (8) can be ground off without causing rough areas on the step (7) to form. This simplifies the welding or soldering of a cooling plate to the step (7).

Abstract: A hot-gas stream (40) flows along the surface of a segment arrangement for shroud bands, in particular in a gas turbine. The segment arrangement comprises segments (20, 20′) arranged next to one another and in each case separated from one another by a gap (12). The hot-gas stream (40), in at least one section (70) of the gap (12), has a velocity component perpendicular to the direction of the gap from a first segment (20) to a second segment (20′). In this case, in said section (70), along that edge (26) of the first segment (20) which faces the gap (12), at least one film-cooling bore (52) connects a cooling-air chamber (50), allocated to the first segment, to the surface (22) subjected to the hot-gas stream (40), and/or, in said section (70), along that edge (26′) of the second segment (20′) which faces the gap (12), at least one edge-cooling bore (56) connects a cooling-air chamber (50′), allocated to the second segment, to the inside (28′) of the gap (12).

Abstract: Platform cooling having a guide-blade platform (30; 60) which is subjected to a hot-gas stream (20) and is separated by a gap (36; 66) from a combustion-chamber segment (40; 70) arranged upstream, one or more segment cooling bores (42; 72) being made in the combustion-chamber segment (40; 70), which segment cooling bores (42; 72) connect a cooling-air chamber (44; 74) to the gap (36; 66). The guide-blade platform (30; 60) has a surface (34; 64) on the downstream side in the region of the gap (36; 66), the axes of the one or more segment cooling bores (42; 72) running roughly tangentially to said surface (34; 64).

Abstract: The reactions of cyclic carbonates, especially 1,3-dioxolan-2-ones, with amines, especially primary amines, are catalyzed by the presence of a base whose conjugate acid has a pKa of about 11 or more. The products are hydroxy urethanes, and the process can be used to form crosslinked polymers which contain urethane groups. Such crosslinked polymers are useful in coatings.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for operating an annular combustion chamber (15) which is equipped with combined burners (1) for liquid (4) and gaseous fuels (9), in particular burners of the double-cone design, each burner (1) having a fuel lance (3), with at least one additional air passage (7), for feeding the liquid fuel (4) and an airblast nozzle (2) for atomizing the liquid fuel (4), into which airblast nozzle (2) atomizing air (5) is fed from outside the burner hood (13), and an adjusting mechanism being provided for at least partly throttling the inflow of the atomizing air (5) during gas operation, wherein the adjusting mechanism is an external valve (21) which is arranged in a main feed line (19), coming from the compressor outlet (18), for the atomizing air (5), the main feed line (19) leading into a ring line (20), and the ring line (20) being connected to the head (24) of each fuel lance (3) via one branch line (23) each.

Abstract: A cast iron hydrocyclone (1,21) made of separate parts joined together, wherein at least two of the parts (2,3; 22,23) are held together by a pair of separate collars (7,8; 26,28) connected to one another, each collar being anchored to one or the other of the parts. The parts may be so anchored by bearing against an anchor provided on the parts.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition comprising(a) a 4-benzoylisoxazole herbicide; and(b) bromoxynil or ioxynil, or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof, or a mixture thereof;and to the use of this composition in controlling the growth of weeds.

Abstract: A multichannel analyzer incorporating the features of the present invention obtains the effect of fractional channels thus greatly reducing the number of actual channels necessary to record complex line spectra. This is accomplished by using an analog-to-digital converter in the asynscronous mode, i.e., the gate pulse from the pulse height-to-pulse width converter is not synchronized with the signal from a clock oscillator. This saves power and reduces the number of components required on the board to achieve the effect of radically expanding the number of channels without changing the circuit board.
