Abstract: PCT No. PCT/US90/05721 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 10, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 10, 1991 PCT Filed Oct. 5, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO90/05721 PCT Pub. Date May 31, 1990.A sonic-type fluid flow measuring system wherein reflections or echoes of an ultrasonic acoustic emitter (9) are sensed and typically comprise a number of frequencies representative of a number of discrete velocities of flow in a volume of fluid. As a sample, they simply appear as a voltage plot as a function of time and wherein the time width of a given signal excursion relates to the frequency of a given signal. Thereafter, this time domain signal sample is converted to a frequency domain sample whereby the presence and magnitude of each frequency component, or velocity component, is isolated, this being typically done by what is known as a Fast Fourier Transform. The highest frequency, velocity, signal from each of a rapid succession of samples is then obtained and stored in a memory (38). The highest and lowest of these are then discarded, and the remaining are averaged to obtain more likely representations of velocity. As the goal is to determine an average fluid velocity for a whole cross section of fluid flow, the measured peak velocity is a detected reference from which a lesser velocity, for example, 0.9, of it is chosen. To achieve a value for volume of flow, the average velocity is then multiplied by the cross-sectional area of the containment (8) through which flow occurs.

Title: Sunbathing filter with incomplete uv-b absorption
Inventor: LONGSTAFF ERIC
IPC: A61K8/02
Filed: 1987-06-04
Abstract: Apparatus for use in sunbathing comprises a screen formed of a sheet of thermoplastic or fiber material which is transparent to the safe UV-A wavelengths of solar radiation and the visible light range between 400-450 nm but which contains uniformly distributed therethrough a first agent which absorbs at least 80% of the UV-B radiation in the 310-320 nm range and all radiation below 310 nm and a second agent and third agent which prevent transmission therethrough of some radiations above 450 nm wavelength, i.e. visible light and infra-red. The second agent may be an absorbing dye or pigment. The third agent may be finely divided carbon or ground glass. The screen may be mounted on a frame or fabricated into clothing so as to shield the sunbather from the acutely and chronically harmful wavelengths of radiation, to prevent unpleasant overheating, and to provide subdued lighting. The relatively small amount of UV-B transmitted through the material stimulates the production of new melanin in a sunbather, and this melanin will be later available for tanning by UV-A radiation.

Title: Removing h2s from gas mixtures containing co2 and h2s
Inventor: FIELD J H
IPC: B01D53/34
Filed: 1981-08-06
Abstract: A process for selectively absorbing H2S from gas mixtures which contain CO2 and H2S in a molar ratio of 4:1 or greater and in which the gas flow rate varies substantially. Alkali metal carbonate solutions are used with absorption under pressure and at an elevated temperature and desorption by steam stripping at about atmospheric pressure. The degree of selectivity of H2S removal is maintained constant despite substantial variations in the gas flow rate by maintaining a constant stripping steam/gas ratio selected to provide the desired partial pressure of H2S in the purified gas and by adjusting the solution/gas ratio to a value in the vicinity of that at which the partial pressure of H2S in the purified gas remains at said selected value while the difference between the partial pressures of CO2 and H2S in the purified gas reaches a maximum value, and by then maintaining such solution/gas ratio as the gas flow rate varies. The process is particularly applicable to H2S removal from hot gases produced by the pressure gasification of sulfur-containing coal, oil or the like which are to be used in power generation cycles.
