Abstract: 939,726. Vertical steam boilers. A. HUET. Jan. 4, 1960 [Jan. 2, 1959; Jan. 14, 1959; Feb. 13, 1959; March 17, 1959; March 19, 1959], No. 271/60. Class 123(2). A steam boiler heated by a hot fluid, for example, the gaseous coolant from a nuclear reactor, comprises an elongated housing, an inlet duct at one end thereof for the heating fluid, a sleeve lining part of the housing and sealed at one end to the inlet duct, the sleeve extending away from the one end of the housing and serving to separate an inner heating fluid flow path from an outer annular coolant flow path, thus protecting the inlet end of the housing from contact with the hottest fluid. In the form shown in Fig. 1, the housing comprises a cylindrical casing a closed by a dome b having a hot gas inlet c and containing steam generating means of which only the superheater d and the top of the evaporator e are shown. The inlet duct c terminates in a Venturi p to the outside of which a sleeve o sealed. In use, the main flow of heating fluid passes over the superheater to the evaporator. Openings q are provided in the Venturi throat and the effect of the Venturi draws a minor proportion of the fluid, partially cooled by contact with the superheater, up through the annular space between the sleeve and the casing to cool the latter. Water tubes r may be located in the annulus and the dome b may be covered with water tubes s to provide additional cooling. In a modification, Figs. 4 to 6 (not shown), the lower edge of the sleeve o extends into a circular U-section trough secured to the casing, the trough, which may contain further water heating tubes, serving to divert an increased proportion of the main gas flow into the annulus. In a further modification, Fig. 3 (not shown), a part of the fully cooled gas leaving the casing is recirculated by a fan to the annulus and to an outer annulus between the upper part of the casing and a surrounding sheath. In a further modification a Venturi establishes the flow in the inner annulus as in Fig. 1 whilst the outer annulus is supplied with gas by a fan.
Patent GB-690687-A (GB)
Title: A process for the separation of aromatic compounds
IPC: C07C7/152
Filed: 1949-01-05
Abstract: A m-disubstituted benzene (having at least one m-substituent which is op-orienting) is separated from a mixture with other substituted benzenes (not m-disubstituted), from which it can be separated only with difficulty by distillation, by extraction with a liquid mixture of boron fluoride and hydrogen fluoride; on allowing to settle two layers are formed, one (usually the lower) containing a larger proportion of the m-disubstituted compound in the form of a complex with boron fluoride, and the other containing a lesser proportion of the m-disubstituted compound; the two layers are then separated and the m-compound liberated from the first layer.  The process is particularly suitable for the separation of compounds having similar substituent groups, e.g. separating the m-isomers of dialkylbenzenes, also the methylfluoro, methylchloro, methylbromo, dibromo, dichloro, difluoro, chlorobromo and chlorofluoro-benzenes, the chlorophenols and the cresols.  The mixture may also contain other substituted benzenes, e.g. ethylbenzene with the xylenes.  For most efficient separation the molar ratio of boron fluoride to m-disubstituted benzene is not more than 1 : 1.  The volume ratio of boron fluoride hydrogen fluoride mixture to substituted benzene mixture may be from 1 : 2 to 25 : 1.  The boron fluoride and hydrogen fluoride may be added to the mixture separately or in p  combination.  After separation of the layers the complex is decomposed by reduction of pressure and/or increase of temperature (after vaporization of hydrogen fluoride if desired), to leave the pure m-compound or a mixture enriched therewith.  Suitable apparatus is shown for carrying out the invention either batchwise or with continuous counterflowing streams of the components.  The raffinate, liberated fluorides, and (if desired) a portion of the enriched product may be recycled.  An example is given of the production of an enriched m-xylene mixture from a petroleum hydrocarbon fraction containing the three xylenes, ethylbenzene, toluene and benzene.  The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91, refers to the separation by the above process of a m-disubstituted aromatic compound in general from a mixture with one or more other aromatic compounds.  It mentions mixtures of alkylbenzenes, phenols, cresols, xylenols and halogenated benzenes and toluenes obtained from coal and petroleum sources and halogenation reactions.  In addition to the products specified above, bromophenols, toluic acids and dihydroxy benzenes are mentioned. A further example is given in which a complex is first formed of a mixture of boron and hydrogen fluorides with a mixture of p-xylene and ethylbenzene.  m-Xylene is then added, the mixture allowed to settle into two layers and these are separated.  It is found that m-xylene displaces the other two hydrocarbons from their complexes. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Abstract: 1,239,962. Measuring dimensions photoelectrically. BRITISH IRON & STEEL RESEARCH ASSOCIATION. Jan. 6, 1969 [Jan. 4, 1968], No.700/68. Heading G1A. [Also in Division G3] In apparatus for measuring a dimension of an object, e.g. a bar undergoing rolling by forming a shadow image thereof on a television camera modified for line scanning, the image is formed by a pulse of light while the electron beam of the camera tube is blanked off and then the image is scanned by the beam a number of times to produce successive video lines, one (preferably the first) of which is used to measure the dimension. The length of the shadow pulse in the video signal is measured by counting clock pulses and the count is compared automatically with a count previously recorded using a standard bar to give an analogue error signal which may be recorded or used to control the rolling of the bar. Light may be conducted from the source to the object and thence to the camera by fibre optics. A filter is included to eliminate radiation from the bar and a modified T÷pler-Schlieren system may be used to avoid distortions of the image by hot gases.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To accurately examine the coagulation fibrinogenolysis system of the blood sample preserved for a certain period of a fibrinogenolysis activator administered patient by preliminarily putting an anticoagulant and an anti- fibrinogenolysis agent in a container to suppress the action of a fibrinogenolysis agent. CONSTITUTION:When t-PA (tissue plasminogen) administered during medical treatment is present in the plasma of a patient, the decomposition of fibrinogen or the decomposition/consumption of plasminogen is generated by the action of t-PA and the clinical examination of a coagulation fibrinogenolysis system is inhibited. When an anti-fibrinogenolysis agent is added to a blood collecting container other than an anticoagulant, said agent inhibits the plasminogen activating action of t-PA. Therefore, even when the plasma of a t-PA administered patient is preserved for a certain period, the change of the value of the component such as fibrinogen or plasminogen in said plasma can be prevented.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To provide two kinds of different gain states at an automatic gain varying circuit by changing a resistance value into two kinds of states by utilizing the changes of ON and OFF of a transistor based on a control signal to be applied to a base. CONSTITUTION:In a circuit in which first and second resistors R1 and R2 and a transistor 4 TR are serially connected between positive and negative power sources, the transistor TR is controlled into the ON state (saturated state) and, the OFF state (cut-off state) by applying a control input to the.base of this transistor TR. In the ON state of this transistor TR, the resistance value between the junction of the first and second resistors R1 and R2 and the ground is low, in the OFF state of TR, the resistance value between the junction of the first and second resistors R1 and R2 and the ground is low and in the OFF state of the TR, the resistance value between the junction of the first and second resistors R1 and R2 and the ground is high. Thus, the resistance value can be varied corresponding to the control input.
