Patent CA-2755921-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZYGMUNT BARAN
IPC: B05B7/14
Filed: 2011-10-21
Abstract: The ultimate objective of this invention is to provide an improved Cold Gas Dynamic Spray (CGDS) apparatus capable of discharging powdered materials at greater velocities with higher deposition efficiency, as well as a greater variety of materials (e.g.  nanopowders). This objective is achieved by attaching a specialized device to an existent CGDS system. The device is a pulse-generator and is attached behind the converging portion of the De Laval-type nozzle. This device significantly increases the efficiency of the spray process in three ways.  First, it creates a higher pressure environment that introduces a wave of pulses to the exit stream, thereby increasing the speed of any introduced powder materials. Second, the addition of this device introduces steam to the overall process which also increases the speed of the exit stream. Third, the introduction of steam into the process also increases the drag co-efficient of any injected powders, thereby once again contributing to an increase in the velocity of the exit stream. This improved design and the resulting increased efficiency of the CGDS process also permits a greater choice in the type of powdered materials that may be used. The pulse-generator generates detonation-type impulse waves by injecting hot compressed water into the low-pressure (vacuum) and high-temperature discharge chamber. The vacuum or low-pessure environment in the discharge chamber provides a greater pressure gradient for the creation of detonation-type impulse waves. The injections are repeated in a cyclical manner at a pre-determined frequency.

Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for capturing thread specific state timing information adds a time field and a time valid field to a thread data structure to form an enhanced thread, identifies a method used to set the time field of the thread to form an identified method and determines whether a time valid bit is currently set to a value representing INVALID for the thread. Responsive to a determination that the time valid bit is currently set to the value representing INVALID for the thread, the computer-implemented process sets the time field of the thread to an obtained value according to the identified method, sets the time valid field of the thread to a value representing VALID, and determines whether a phase exit from an interesting state occurs. Responsive to a determination that the phase exit from the interesting state occurs, the computer-implemented process invalidates time of the thread to set the time valid field to a value representing INVALID and makes a time field value available for reporting.

The mechanisms allow for the application of transverse vortex generators, or Gurney Flaps/Lift Enhancement Tabs/Divergent Trailing Edges, to propellers, rotorblades, and to wings/flaps/ control trailing edges. Cove Tabs are additionally described using an elastomeric transverse vortex generator to achieve performance improvements of a high lift device.
