Patent CA-2323029-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NASR TAWFIK NOAMAN
IPC: C09K8/592
Filed: 2000-10-10
Abstract: A method for producing hydrocarbons from a subterranean formation comprises injecting steam and an additive into the formation. The additive has at least one nonaqueous fluid, which is selected so that the evaporation temperature of the additive is within about ~150°C of the steam temperature at the operating pressure. Suitable additives include C1 to C25 hydrocarbons and combinations thereof. At least a portion of the additive condenses in the formation. The mobility of the hydrocarbons is greater than that obtained using steam alone under substantially similar formation conditions.

Title: Improved automated frying machine
Inventor: CASTLEBURY MICHAEL
IPC: G07F9/10
Filed: 1998-06-26
Abstract: An improved self-contained frying machine is disclosed and claimed with significantly enhanced reliability, repeatability and maintenance. The extruder (10) and dibber assemblies are not attached to any surface plates, thus permitting easy removal for cleaning. More significantly, the extruder assemblies (10) are not connected to an upper shelf, thereby alleviating misalignment concerns. Efficient motor-driven rack and gear components are disclosed for the extruder assembly (10), dibber assembly, slide assembly (180) and the carousel assembly (290). The electrical system comprises a programmable logic controller (PLC) that is preferably mounted in a housing that is external to the machine, preferably resting on the top of the frying machine. The mounting of the PLC (110) and other electrical components in an external box diminishes the interference from background noise introduced by the various motors. Various sensors positioned on the different assemblies provide real-time information to the PLC. Based upon the information from the sensors, the PLC commands the various devices to perform their predetermined functions.

Title: Method of adjusting component airflow
Inventor: WANG XUENAN
IPC: F02C7/00
Filed: 2001-07-05
Abstract: A method of adjusting airflow through a plurality of cooling holes (32) by depositing a thermal barrier coating (36) on an exterior surface (34) and/or an interior surface of the component (16) by a physical vapor deposition process. The cooling holes (32) are not masked. Thus, a portion (38) of the thermal barrier coating (36) partially obstructs airflow through the cooling holes (32) and reduces airflow through the cooling holes (32). A predetermined pressure drop is developed across the cooling holes (32) and airflow through the cooling holes (32) is measured. The measured airflow is compared to a preselected range of desired cooling hole airflows and the steps of depositing the thermal barrier coating (36), developing the predetermined pressure drop, calculating airflow and comparing the measured airflow to the preselected range are repeated until the measured airflow is within the preselected range of desired cooling hole airflows.

IPC: B01J19/00
Filed: 1999-12-14
Abstract: According to the inventive method monomers for the combinatorial synthesis of molecule libraries are embedded in a solid matrix at a temperature below 90°C. The monomers that are embedded in the matrix form solid transport units, which are subsequently applied to the support in a spatially defined manner, where they adopt a solid or gel-like stage of aggregation. The method can be carried out with a laser printer or a laser copier or an ink jet printer. The monomers within the matrix are then mobilized by melting by heat or chemical vapour. Thereby, the monomers couple to reactive groups on the solid support. If multiple layers are repeatedly applied to the support in precise positions, the combinatorial synthesis of an array of oligomers ensues.
