Patent CA-2383170-A1 (CA)
Title: Cooled tubes arranged to form impact type particle separators
Inventor: JAMES DAVID E
IPC: F22B31/00
Filed: 2002-04-23
Abstract: Apparatus for separating solids from flue gas in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler comprises plural vertical, impact type particle separators made of cooling tubes located within the CFB in a plurality of staggered rows. One embodiment employs a plurality of stacked, slip fit elements having apertures which accept the cooling tubes. The slip fit elements cooperate with one another to form a collecting channel, typically U-shaped, which separates particles from flue gases conveyed across the particle separators. Shiplap joints in between the individual slip fit elements prevent gas and solids from leaking therebetween and allow for thermal expansion. Alternatively, the impact type particle separators comprise cooling tubes connected to one another to form a unitary structure. Pin studs welded to the cooling tubes and covered with a coating of refractory; ceramic tiles; metal or ceramic spray coatings; metal or ceramic castings; weld overlay; and/or shields provide erosion resistance.

Abstract: Advantageous seal systems (1500) are provided that include a barrier member movable relative (1504) to a shaft (1550) to allow sequential engagement of resilient seal members (1506), e.g., lip seals, with the shaft. Movement of the barrier member (1504) may be effected manually or through introduction of pressurized fluid to effect piston-like movement. The disclosed seal assemblies may include an automatic leak detector and may utilize such leak detection to effectuate automatic movement of the barrier member. The barrier member may be moved relative to the shaft while the shaft is in movement, e.g., rotating or re-ciprocating, thereby permitting seal maintenance without interruption in operation. As seal members are sequentially brought into sealing engagement with the shaft, the previously engaged seal members contribute to the sealing performance of the seal assembly, although no longer effective to establish a stand-alone seal with the shaft.

Un récepteur GPS de poursuite continue de code C/A est utilisé pour produire des points de positionnement GPS et des mesures de phase porteuse L1 en temps réel. Ce récepteur de code C/A produit des informations de minutage et de référence pour un composant d'échantillonnage numérique. Ce composant d'échantillonnage traite les signaux L1 et L2 des signaux GPS en vue. Un composant de traitement de signaux numériques couplé à ce composant d'échantillonnage traite les échantillons bruts sous forme synchrone et par lots, une étape étant destinée précisément au déroulement de la phase de porteuse P(Y) pour obtenir une bande de base. Le récepteur produit des mesures synchrones de phase porteuse associées à chaque source et signal télémétriques observables. Les mesures synchrones brutes de phase porteuse produites par le récepteur de code C/A à poursuite continue et le composant d'échantillonnage numérique peuvent être utilisés pour résoudre les ambiguïtés de cycle pour chaque source télémétrique par rapport à une station de référence située en un emplacement connu. A des intervalles courts, typiquement de l'ordre des dixièmes de seconde à partir de la mise en marche initiale, des mesures continues synchrones brutes sont fournies par le récepteur GPS et traitées pour obtenir des points de position précis.
