Patent number: 9000334Abstract: A Bleve (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion) reaction wherein fuel is pumped from a fuel line and is fed through a solenoid valve to a BLEVE reaction chamber. The BLEVE reaction takes place in the bleve chamber, during which a bleve is released and supplied via the bleve outlet nozzle. A thermal housing with embedded electrical resistive wire, is a method and installation for generating sufficient heat causing a bleve. The fuel is heated by the electrical resistive wire as it is moved into the bleve-reaction chamber. As bleved fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber, the latent heat causes the bleve to auto-ignite upon contact with the oxygen producing a blue flame. The cycle of the process is controlled by means of a regulating control. The method described is particularly suited for a bleved fuel valve nozzled burner.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2011Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Inventors: William H. Manning, James M.

Publication number: 20080062737Abstract: A DRAM array includes for each column a pair of complimentary digit lines that are coupled to a sense amplifier. Each of the global digit lines is selectively coupled to a plurality of local digit lines by respective coupling circuits. The length of the local digit lines is substantially shorter than the length of the global digit lines. As a result, the local digit lines have substantially less capacitance so that a voltage stored by a memory cell capacitor can be more easily transferred to the local digit line. The coupling circuits provide current amplification so that the voltage on the local digit lines can be more easily transferred to the global digit lines. A write back circuit is coupled to the local digit line to restore the voltage of the memory cell capacitor.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 9, 2007Publication date: March 13, 2008Inventors: H.

Publication number: 20070232013Abstract: The invention includes semiconductor constructions, and also includes methods of forming pluralities of capacitor devices. An exemplary method of the invention includes forming conductive storage node material within openings in an insulative material to form conductive containers. A retaining structure lattice is formed in physical contact with at least some of the containers, and subsequently the insulative material is removed to expose outer surfaces of the containers. The retaining structure can alleviate toppling or other loss of structural integrity of the container structures. The electrically conductive containers correspond to first capacitor electrodes. After the outer sidewalls of the containers are exposed, dielectric material is formed within the containers and along the exposed outer sidewalls. Subsequently, a second capacitor electrode is formed over the dielectric material. The first and second capacitor electrodes, together with the dielectric material, form a plurality of capacitor devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2007Publication date: October 4, 2007Inventors: H.
