Abstract: A hydrocarbon-containing gas is mixed with an oxygen-containing gas in a gas mixer in the presence of a water mist.  The water mist surrounds and contacts entrained particles in either the oxygen-containing gas stream or the hydrocarbon-containing gas stream. The water acts to suppress and prevent ignition of the hydrocarbon gas in the mixer by serving as a sink for heat created by energetic collisions between such particles and structures within the gas mixer. The water mist also acts to quench ignition caused by such collisions. The water mist can be introduced into the gas mixer in a number of different configurations, including via nozzles injecting a mist into a hydrocarbon gas manifold or an oxygen gas manifold, nozzles placed within the gas mixer adjacent to ends of the oxygen supply pipes, and nozzles placed coaxially within the oxygen supply pipes in the gas mixer.

Abstract: A splittable optical fiber ribbon has a decreased propensity for fiber fallout along a longitudinal split. Fibers adjacent to a split location, called border fibers, have increased bond strength between their ink-coating and a surrounding matrix material.  The bond strength is increased by first partially curing an ink that covers the border fibers, coating the partially-cured fibers with a matrix material, and then substantially fully curing the ink and the matrix material substantially simultaneously. The ribbon may include one or more grooves to enhance splitting the ribbon into subsets.

IPC: F03D7/02
Filed: 2008-12-01
Abstract: The compensation system of this invention is adapted to modify the rotor blade pitch angle signal received from a central controller and output a compensated rotor blade pitch angle signal to the actuator for each blade independently in order to counteract the loads on the blade caused by non-uniformity of the wind-field, with the benefit of reducing the asymmetric rotor loads. The individual compensation system for each rotor blade pitch angle does not depend on either the load measurements for any other blade or on the compensated rotor blade pitch angle for any other blade other than through the common collective rotor blade pitch angle signal provided by the central controller. The compensation system of this invention is therefore a reactive system which greatly increases the service life of the installation.
