  • Patent number: 7510643
    Abstract: A sensor strip comprises an electrode substrate, an electrode set, on the electrode substrate, and a heat conducting layer, on the electrode substrate opposite the electrode set. A sensor instrument for use with this sensor strip comprises a temperature sensor, at a side of a gap for accepting the sensor strip, opposite electrical contacts. The invention provides an accurate determination of the temperature of a sample.

  • Patent number: 6793015
    Abstract: A furnace heat exchanger with multiple parallel flow passages wherein at least one flow passage has a cross-sectional shape which transitions from one form to another in a gradual manner so as to reduce the occurrence of stress therein. In one embodiment, the transition is from an oval shape to a wavy shape.

  • Patent number: 6484798
    Abstract: A multipass heat exchanger with return bends between passes has its first return bend which varies in cross sectional area in the direction of the of the gas flow. The cross sectional area first increases so as to thereby reduce the velocity of the flue gas, decrease the flue side heat transfer coefficient and decrease the resulting hotspots. The cross sectional area is then increased in a more downstream portion of the return bend so as to not increase the overall height of the heat exchanger. The variation preferably occurs throughout the entire span of the return bend, with the increase in cross sectional area beginning at the start of the return bend.

  • Patent number: 6470878
    Abstract: A furnace heat exchanger with multiple parallel flow passages with at least two of the passages being partially formed of a pair of opposed sidewalls having wavy cross-sectional shapes wherein the downstream passage has at least as many and preferably more waves than the upstream pass. The wavy shapes are preferably generally sinusoidal in form with the waves of the two sides being substantially in phase.
