Abstract: A system for reducing plasma induced communication disruption is disclosed. The system utilizes an electrophilic gas injectant, bent reentry vehicle nose shaping and a number of flaps configured to provide 3-axis steering capability. Injecting electrophilic gas injectant into plasma accomplishes reduction of plasma induced communication disruption by removing free electrons in the plasma which causes the communication disruption. For reentry vehicles, a bent biconic nose also reduces plasma effect during reentry. By combining electrophilic gas injection and bent nose shaping, the system reduces and/or eliminates plasma induced communication disruption, such as, GPS communication blackout, for a reentry vehicle during reentry. Furthermore, the 3-axis steering capability renders the reentry vehicle more maneuverable. Performance of the reentry vehicle during reentry, such as, target accuracy, is thus improved.

Abstract: An automatic priming system for internal combustion engines, which is operable to prime the carburetor of the engine at engine cranking speeds, and is automatically disabled after the engine starts. The automatic priming system is driven by pressure fluctuations within the engine crankcase which are caused by reciprocation of the piston. At engine cranking speeds, fluid communication of positive and negative pressure pulses between the engine crankcase and an accumulator is allowed via a restrictor. The positive and negative pressure pulses are used to drive an air pump, such as a diaphragm air pump, to pump atmospheric air to the carburetor to pressurize the fuel bowl of the carburetor for priming. After the engine starts and the piston reciprocates more rapidly, the restrictor prevents communication of positive and negative pressure pulses between the crankcase and the accumulator, and the pressure within the accumulator is relatively constant and below atmospheric pressure.

Abstract: The subject of this invention is a submerged airlift pump using multiple concentric pipes with diameters that increase as they near the water surface. Water initially accelerated into the lowest pipe section is progressively decelerated in subsequent pipe sections, increasing the residence time of the bubbles and hence the total driving force of the pump. Pipe proportions are optimized with gas flows to maximize total pump discharge at extremely low pumping-heads, resulting in ultra-high pumping efficiencies. This device can be used to promote circulation of large volumes of deep pond water, deficient in oxygen, to the surface, creating an increase in the exchange of gases between the atmosphere and water with minimal energy requirements.
