Abstract: A valve assembly configured to be mounted on a support structure comprises a flowbody having a first port, a second port, and a flow passage there between. A flange is coupled around the flowbody proximate the first port. A sleeve extends into the flowbody through the first port, and a radial lip is coupled to the sleeve proximate the first port. A retaining ring is coupled to the flange and configured to confine the radial lip between the retaining ring and the support structure to secure the sleeve within the flowbody when the valve assembly is mounted on the support structure.

Abstract: A system and method of thermal management of electrical and electronic systems and components that adequately maintains the temperatures of the system electronics and electrical devices within reliable limits during various postulated system malfunctions. The system and method use a phase change material (PCM). In at least some embodiments, the PCM is disposed such that, if a flow of coolant ceases when primary and backup control circuits are energized, primary control circuit temperature will exceed a predetermined temperature within a first time period after the flow of coolant ceases, and backup control circuit temperature will exceed the predetermined temperature a second time period, which is greater than the first time period, after the flow of coolant ceases.
