Abstract: A process for coating a part to be laser peened improves the effectiveness of the laser peening process. A coating layer of material is placed on the metal surface to absorb the laser light and to insulate the metal from the heat of the plasma. In a dip coating process employing a solvent thinned polymer, the part to be coated is cleaned, dipped and re-dipped into and retracted from a solvent/polymer solution. By appropriately adjusting the viscosity of the solution and the vapor pressure (temperature) of the solvent, a highly uniform coating of the part can be obtained. The process is fast, cures rapidly and the coating is easily stripped off after processing.

Abstract: Eine elektrochemische Zelle zur elektrolytischen Kontaktierung und elektrochemischen Kontrolle von Oberflächen, welche über einen Körper mit Kapillarwirkung mit der Oberfläche elektrolytischen Kontakt macht. Die Kapillarkraft zwischen Oberfläche und Körper mit Kapillarwirkung verhindert das Ausfliessen des Elektrolyten aus der Zelle ohne Verwendung eines Dichtungsrings. Der Körper mit Kapillarkraft ermöglicht das Nachfliessen des Elektrolyten aus einem offenen porösen Behälter und die Benetzung der Oberfläche beim Kontakt der elektrochemischen Zelle mit der Oberfläche. Das Ausfliessen der offenen Zelle wird durch die Kapillarwirkung des Behälters und der Spitze beim Abheben der elektrochemischen Zelle von der Oberfläche verhindert. Die elektrochemische Zelle ist unabhängig von der Schwerkraft und ermöglicht daher Messungen auf beliebig orientierten Oberflächen. Die elektrochemische Zelle ermöglicht die Durchführung einer Vielzahl von elektrochemischen Untersuchungen und Prozesse. Die elektrochemische Zelle kann gleitend über die Oberfläche geführt werden, wodurch elektrochemische Untersuchungen oder Prozesse mit lateraler Auflösung durchgeführt werden können. Durch die Verwendung einer wartungsfreien Referenzelektrode kann die elektrochemische Zelle industriell komplett vorgefertigt und durch Verschliessen über längere Zeit aufbewahrt werden.

Abstract: A peripheral device reliably reports errors to a main
device. When a control signal is received from the main
device, an interface circuit requests a voltage detecting
circuit to determine whether or not a main circuit section is
operative. The voltage detecting circuit determines the
capability of operation of the main circuit section based on
the state of charge of a charging/discharging section, and
outputs the results to the interface circuit. If determined
to be operative, the interface circuit turns on a power supply
switch to operate the main circuit section, while outputting
the control signal received from the main device to the main
circuit section. If inoperative, the interface circuit
transmits to the main device a signal informing it of the
inoperative state.

Abstract: The present invention provides a chromatic-dispersion measuring
apparatus and method that can quickly measure chromatic dispersion in an
optical fiber even when the optical fiber is short. Continuous light beams
having the wavelengths λ 1  and λ 2  output from light sources are multiplexed
by a multiplexer, are intensity-modulated by an intensity modulator, and are
then output as optical signals. The output optical signals with the
wavelengths λ 1  and λ 2  enter an optical fiber to be measured, and propagate
therethrough. The optical signals emerging from the optical fiber are demultiplexed
by a de-multiplexer, and are received by corresponding
photodetectors. Subsequently, the phase difference between the optical signals
received by the photodetectors is detected by a phase detector. The chromatic
dispersion of the optical fiber is calculated by an arithmetical circuitry on the
basis of the detection result.

Abstract: The temperature of cooling air to a manifold (12) for distribution to
molds of a glass manufacturing machine is controlled by passing
untreated air through an indirect heat exchanger (18) in indirect heat
exchange relationship with water flowing through a coil (20) in the
indirect heat exchanger (18) before treated air from the indirect heat
exchanger is passed through a blower (14) for distribution to the
manifold (12). Water for treating the air flowing through the indirect
heat exchanger (18) is pumped through the coil (20) from a water
cooling tower (24) that is used in a glass manufacturing plant, either at
a first temperature from a first outlet (24a) of the water cooling tower
or at a second temperature from a second outlet (24b) of a water
cooling tower, or a mixture of water from the first outlet and the second
outlet. In a first embodiment water from the first outlet and water from
the second outlet pass through a temperature controlled three-way
mixing valve (26) before delivery to a pump for delivery to the indirect
heat exchanger (18). In a second embodiment, water from a first outlet
(124b) is delivered to a pump (122) and then to a temperature control
three-way valve (126) for delivery to the indirect heat exchanger (118)
or for return to a location upstream of the pump (122). In the latter
embodiment, air from the blower (114) is also caused to flow through a
second indirect heat exchanger (160) before delivery to the manifold,
and its temperature is altered in the second indirect heat exchanger
(160) in indirect heat exchange relationship with water flowing through
a coil (162) in a second indirect heat exchanger. In this embodiment,
water flows from the water cooling tower (124) to the coil (162) of the
second indirect heat exchanger (160), and a temperature controlled
two-way valve (164) is placed in a line between the water cooling tower
(124) and the second indirect heat exchanger (160) to control the rate
of water flowing through the second indirect heat exchanger.
