  • Patent number: 11089660
    Abstract: A device for generating a condensation aerosol includes vaporization chamber having an upstream first inlet and a downstream outlet. A tube supplies liquid to a heater in the vaporization chamber. The liquid is pumped out of the tube and onto the heater, which vaporizes the liquid. Air flows from inlets through the vaporization chamber, and generally perpendicular to the tube. The vaporized liquid is entrained in the air, forming a condensation aerosol having a particle size in a selected range. A second inlet provides a substantially laminar flow of air into the airflow path, wherein the second inlet is downstream of the heater; and the device capable of changing air flow in the vaporization chamber to change the particle size of the condensation aerosol and/or to change the amount of visible vapor emitted from the device.

  • Publication number: 20150316010
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a 3-way valve assembly (102; 202; 302) for a fuel injector (101; 201; 301). The valve assembly (102; 202; 302) includes a valve body (103; 203; 303), a movable valve member (104; 204; 304), and an armature (113; 213; 313) for actuating the valve member (104; 204; 304). The armature (113; 213; 313) is disposed in an armature cavity (115; 215; 315). The valve member (104; 204; 304) is configured to control an operating pressure in a control chamber (105). The valve body (103; 203; 303) includes a bore (117; 217; 317) in which the valve member (104; 204) is disposed. A leak vent (121; 221) is provided for venting fuel leaking through the bore (117; 217) past said valve member (104; 204). In an alternate embodiment, a partitioning member (333) is disposed in the armature cavity (315).

  • Publication number: 20120085869
    Abstract: Apparatus for a space platform comprises a magnetic field generator and/or an electric field generator respectively configured to generate fields for influencing the trajectory of one or more items of space debris passing within a region of the apparatus. A system comprising a plurality of such space platforms may be placed in an orbit proximal to an orbit containing space debris. An individual space platform or system thereof may be used in a method for displacing earth orbital space debris out of the orbit and either towards the Earth's atmosphere where it is likely to be destroyed by the burning on re-entry into the atmosphere, or into a safer orbit from which it may be collected or in which it may be left.
