Title: Method for removal of permeate gases from a flexible tubular pipe and pipe embodied for carrying ou the same
Inventor: FELIX-HENRY ANTOINE
IPC: F16L11/08
Filed: 2004-08-06
Abstract: A pipe has an internal pressure sleeve (14) for carrying hydrocarbons, an external sleeve (24) and one or more reinforcing layers (16, 18, 20) between the internal and external sleeves. The permeation gases which diffuse through the wall of the internal sleeve are forced to circulate through channels along the reinforcing layers towards means of evacuation. The reinforcing layer(s) (16, 18, 20) are placed in an annular zone between the internal and external sleeves. A carrier gas is injected under pressure into the annular zone in a number of injection zones to force the permeation gases to circulate in the channels towards the means of evacuation. The carrier gas is injected at one end of the flexible pipe and the gas contains nitrogen. Alternatively, circulation is created by extracting the permeation gases in at least one aspiration zone inside the annular zone. An independent claim is included for a flexible pipe designed to allow this process to take place, with an internal pressure sleeve (14) through which the permeation gases diffuse; an external sleeve (24) and one or more reinforcing layers (16, 18, 20) placed in an annular zone. The pipe includes means (22) of forcing circulation of the permeation gases through channels in the annular zone, comprising at least one supply of carrier gas under pressure opening into the annular zone. This supply has injection orifices spaced apart from each other to form a number of injection zones spaced along the pipe. Alternatively, the means of forcing circulation are means of drawing the gases in various aspiration zones along the pipe. These are differential valves designed to evacuate the gases by pressure difference between the annular zone and the exterior.

Abstract: A THz quantum cascade laser is provided that is constituted as a superlattice device by repeatedly overlaying AISb or GaAlSb barrier layers and GaSb quantum well layers (a,b,c,d) and forming electrode layers at the opposite ends thereof. Each repetition unit of the superlattice comprises an injection region and an active region. The thickness of the GaSb layers (c,d) constituting the quantum wells of the active region is adjusted such that the energy difference between the excited state (5) and the ground state (3,4) equals the laser frequency. Efficient extraction of the electrons from the ground state (3,4) of the laser transition is achieved by coupling the ground state (3,4) of the wells (c,d) in the active region with the first excited state (3,4) of a GaSb well (b) in the injection region and by adjusting the thickness of the well (b) in the injection region such that the energy difference between the first excited state (3,4) and the ground state (1,2) is equal to the LO phonon energy of GaSb. The quantum cascade laser lases at lower frequency than conventionally and has a structure that is easy to fabricate.
