Patent number: 4150440Abstract: A bubble memory package is comprised of a nonmagnetizable heat sink formed with a pocket for receiving the field coil and magnetic chip carrier assemblies. The heat sink is massive and capable of dissipating the heat generated by a high density memory operating at a high frequency. The heat sink is not closed over the top of the coil and memory carrier assemblies to reduce eddy and circulating electrical currents formed in an electrically conductive heat sink. The heat sink is formed with a track guide for receiving a heat sink plate which may be of electrically nonconductive material but which has sufficient heat conductivity to assist in transferring heat into the heat sink. The top of the heat sink plate is formed with a pocket for receiving a permanent magnet to generate the bias field and the bottom of the heat sink is formed with a second pocket for receiving a magnet assembly. The entire package is surrounded by a magnetic shield container.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 1978Date of Patent: April 17, 1979Assignee: Control Data CorporationInventors: G.

Patent number: 4149134Abstract: A heat storage system provides overload capacity for a vaporization-cooled electrical apparatus. An external housing, containing a heat storage fluid, is disposed around a fluid conductor connecting a non-condensable gas storage reservoir and the radiator of a vaporization-cooled electrical apparatus. At normal loads, the non-condensable gas is contained within the fluid conductor and the storage reservoir thereby thermally isolating the storage fluid from the hot vapors contained within a radiator which keeps the storage fluid at ambient temperatures. A pressure increase, caused by an overload, compresses the non-condensable gas into the storage reservoir and allows the hot vapors to flow into a portion of the fluid conductor surrounded by the external housing whereby heat is dissipated from the hot vapors to the storage fluid contained within the external housing.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 1977Date of Patent: April 10, 1979Assignee: Elect Power Research Institute, Inc.Inventors: Richard E. Kothmann, Donald K. Whirlow
