Abstract: A method for determining the amount of sulfide in a sample includes dissolving the sample in an acidic solution ( 101 ) and liberating the gas from the solution containing the dissolved sample. The gas liberated from the solution is then sensed for the presence of hydrogen sulfide therein. The sensing of the liberated gas for the presence of hydrogen sulfide may be accomplished by exposing a sensor ( 19 , 300 , 405 , 421 ) to the liberated gas and detecting a change in a physical property of the sensor. If hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid is used as the acidic solution, an electrochemical sensor ( 300 ) or a metal oxide solid state sensor ( 19 ) may be used to sense for the presence of hydrogen sulfide. If hydroiodic acid is used as the acidic solution, a metal oxide solid state sensor ( 19 ) may be used to sense the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas in the liberated gas. This technique of measuring the amount of sulfide by sensing the gas liberated from the solution using an electrochemical or metal oxide sensor provides high precision measurements of the concentration of sulfide in the sample.

Abstract: An engine cooling system for inducing a stream of cold air via a radiator fan (18) toward the rear part of a vehicle so as to cool a vehicle engine (3), which includes catalysts (10,12) downstream of an exhaust manifold (6). The radiator fan (18) is displaced in front the engine (3) so that substantially no cold airstreams from the radiator fan (18) directly strike the exhaust manifold (6). Thus, exhaust emissions are prevented from being excessively cooled, so that the catalysts (10,12) can become active to purify the exhaust emissions reliably. 
     The engine cooling system is effective to keep the catalysts (10,12) active when the engine (3) is in the partial cylinder operation mode in which the exhaust emissions tend to be lowered in the temperature.

Abstract: A technique for reducing the power threshold at which stimulated brillouin scattering ("SBS") occurs within an optical fiber by directly modulating a conventional laser generating an optical signal propagated along that fiber. The modulation is accomplished by employing an alternating waveform to induce a dither upon the laser output. The specific frequency of the alternating waveform is chosen to be very much lower than the low frequency cut-off of any receiver coupled to the optical fiber, but sufficiently high enough to efficiently suppress the Brillouin gain. This dithering causes the laser to be frequency modulated, thereby broadening the effective linewidth of the laser output and increasing the SBS power threshold.
