Abstract: An improved reinforced laminate for use in sails or other flexible sheet or membrane applications utilizes a pull-truded thin lightweight reinforcing sheet of unidirectional extruded monofilaments in which the reinforcing sheet or sheets (32, 34, 36) form one or more uni-tapes laminated to a polymer film (40) such as Mylar R, or other extended sheet of material. The monofilaments (38) are uniformly embedded in the uni-tape via an elastomeric polymer matrix, with the reinforcing sheet, when incorporated into sails via lamination resulting in sails with reinforcing monofilaments having diameters 5 times less than conventional strands or threads. The use of small diameter monofilaments greatly increases the monofilament-over-monofilament crossover density, resulting in a dramatic increase in shear strength, and Young's Modulus, with an accompanying dramatic decrease in weight. In one embodiment the improvement in specific modulus over conventional sail laminates is about six-fold. For example, at only one-third the weight, stretch resistance is two times better. In a preferred embodiment, autoclaving is used in the lamination process to rid the laminate of voids which dramatically reduce shear strength by as much as 30 percent. Alternative void-free laminating processes include a silicone interliner/heated platen technique.

Date Mar. 2, 1995In a gas combustion engine, which is manufactured by conversion of a diesel engine, the piston shape, the compression ratio, the air intake system and the exhaust gas system are modified. The exhaust gas system is split into two parts, each of which consists of an exhaust branch-piece and a catalyser, whereby catalysers of standard format can be employed, and the air intake system is made smaller, whereby the probability of backfire is reduced. The hollow in the piston already present in the diesel engine is enlarged in diameter and depth, in such a manner that the ratio of the diameter to the depth is equal to 30:11. In this manner, one achieves an optimal form with respect to heat extraction. In addition, enlargement of the hollow causes a lowering of the compression ratio to a value of 1:10, which is necessary when applying gas as a fuel. In addition, the edge of the piston near the top surface of the piston is bevelled, in order to compensate for extra expansion of the piston around the hollow, which extra expansion occurs as a result of the increased combustion temperatures. The costs of the above-specified conversion of a diesel engine to a gas combustion engine are hardly higher than those of a revision service of a diesel engine, so that there is no longer a financial obstacle to conversion to gas as a fuel.

Abstract: An improved oxygen blowing/fuel burner lance assembly for introducing, at selected times, a flow of oxygen and/or carbonaceous fuel material, such as fine-grained carbon or hydrocarbon gas (e.g., natural gas and the like), into an electric furnace vessel. The lance assembly includes a housing portion, a straight barrel having a first and connected to the housing portion and a second end connected to a lance tip. The lance tip includes a nozzle structure having at least one oxygen injection nozzle and at least one carbonaceous material injection nozzle which together define a burner assembly for dispensing a combined flow of carbonaceous fuel and oxygen from the lance which may be ignited to produce a flame for preheating a scrap charge in an electric furnace vessel. When the scrap is sufficiently melted through cooperation of the electric furnace electrodes and the burner, the oxygen and carbonaceous fuel material flows may be terminated to extinguish the burner flame, the oxygen flow may be restarted at a reduced flow rate to complete preheating/cutting (if necessary), or at a supersonic flow rate for refining/decarburizing of the molten steel bath.
