Abstract: Methods and devices for preventing a change in the core body temperature of a mammal under cold conditions are provided. In the subject methods, a requirement for thermal energy input in said mammal is first detected. In response to the detection of this requirement for thermal energy input, a surface of a portion of the mammal is contacted with a warm temperature medium under negative pressure conditions for a period of time sufficient to introduce thermal energy into the core body of the mammal. The subject devices include at least a means for detecting a requirement for thermal energy input and a means for contacting a surface of a mammal with a warm temperature medium under negative pressure conditions (104). The subject methods and devices find use in a variety of applications, and are particularly suited for use in maintaining the core body temperature of a mammal substantially under cold conditions for an extended period of time.

Abstract: A method for detecting leaks in a fluid system that is located at a volatile and potentially
explosive environment such as, but not limited to, the evaporative or air brake system of a motor
vehicle. A smoke generating machine (1) produces a supply of smoke (30) to be delivered to the
system under test (50). At least some of a mixture (8) of oil and fluorescent dye is heated and
vaporized into smoke within a sealed chamber (2). The mixture is blown against a heating element
(14) within the sealed chamber (2) by means of non-combustible nitrogen gas (28) so as to avoid the
possibility of an explosion. The smoke (30) functions as a carrier for the dye. Some of the smoke
(30) which is delivered to the system under test (30) from the chamber (2) will exit a leak (e.g. a hole
52), and the fluorescent dye carried by the smoke will leave a fluorescent trace (54) around the leak.
By shining ultraviolet light (58) along the system under test (50), the fluorescent trace (54) around
the leak (52) will be illuminated. Accordingly, even small leaks may be quickly, easily and reliably
located for repair.
