  • Publication number: 20220181105
    Abstract: A switchgear system operable at voltages up to 27 kV includes an enclosure containing atmospheric air and a loadbreak module disposed within the enclosure. The loadbreak module includes a loadbreak module housing made of a solid dielectric material, a vacuum interrupter enclosed within the loadbreak module housing and having a fixed contact and a movable contact, and an interchange electrically connected to the movable contact. The vacuum interrupter is operable to selectively break or establish an electrical pathway between the interchange and a terminal in response to movement of the movable contact relative to the fixed contact. The switchgear system further includes a bushing coupled to the enclosure and a disconnect switch electrically connected in series between the loadbreak module and the bushing. The disconnect switch includes a disconnect switch housing made of a solid dielectric material.

  • Patent number: 7531048
    Abstract: A cleaning method for a combustor comprises positioning a spray portion of a nozzle through an igniter plug boss and spraying an acid solution inside the combustion chamber. The acid solution impinges the inner liner and the outer liner, dissolving contaminant deposits inside the effusion holes. The nozzle can have a second spray portion outside the combustion chamber to provide acid solution to the radially outward surface of the outer liner. After cleaning, distilled water is sprayed through the nozzle to remove the acid solution residue from the combustor. The used acid solution and distilled water can be collected, filtered and pumped through the nozzle to provide a recirculating cleaning/rinsing system.
