Abstract: A method and an equipment for adjusting the cooling air of a glass tempering machine. Cooling air is led by at least one fan (1, 2) to a tempering area (4) for cooling the glass exiting a tempering furnace (11). By means of a closing device (10) the tempering area (4) can be reduced such that a tempering zone with a pressure that can be raised sufficiently high for tempering thin glass can be formed out of the reduced tempering area. In this manner the tempering result becomes very even, and no separate tempering zone is needed even for thin glass.

Abstract: A shoe press belt has both sides coated with a resin layer and one or both layers with side edge portions softer than the middle portion of the resin layer. The hardness of the side edge portions may first decrease stepwise laterally outwardly from the middle portion to a section which overlies the edge of the shoe, and then increase stepwise laterally outwardly to the edge of the belt. A first stepwise reduction in hardness may begin laterally inward of the edge of the wet paper sheet and extend laterally outwardly to the edge of the wet paper sheet, where a second stepwise reduction begins that extends laterally outwardly beyond the edge of the shoe. Laterally outwardly of the second reduction, a stepwise increase in hardness extends to the edge of the belt. Alternatively, each side edge portion may be of a single hardness, less than the hardness of the middle portion, and each side edge portion overlies one of the side edges of the shoe. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A wipe comprising a high internal phase inverse emulsion disposed in a discontinuous pattern on a substrate. The pattern provides areas coated with the emulsion and areas free of the emulsion. Preferably the emulsion is disposed so that the surface area to volume ratio of the emulsion is minimized. The emulsion locally expresses water during use upon the application of pressure to the wipe. The water is useful for cleaning. The discontinuous pattern of the emulsion provides regions of the substrate which are wetted during use and regions which may remain dry. The wetted regions transfer water to the surface to be cleaned. The dry regions then remove the water from the surface for more efficacious cleaning.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for measuring gas transfer time inside an enclosed space, such as a blast furnace, which consists in injecting a gas, called tracer gas, in a point A or A' of the enclosed space, for example a nozzle, and in tapping in a point B of the same enclosed space the gas present therein, the point A or A' being different from point B; in detecting the presence of the tracer gas in the gas tapped in B, and deducing therefrom the time required by the tracer gas to travel from point A or A' to point B on the basis of the data supplied by the detection system. The method also consists in carrying out at least one in-situ measurement of the response time, that is a calibration, of the tapping system in B. The calibration consists in injecting at the tapping point, concerning the equipment to be calibrated, an amount of a predetermined gas and in measuring the time separating said injection and the detection of said gas in the tapping and detecting equipment. Various methods are described two of which use tapping pipes with coaxial tubes and one with a single tube pipe. In case a rare gas, such as helium, is used as tracer gas, the blow-down gas can be nitrogen and the calibrating gas can be a helium-nitrogen mixture.

Abstract: A well configuration is provided comprising an injection well (102) completed relatively high in an oil reservoir (100) and a production well (103-106) completed relatively low in the reservoir (100). The production well has a horizontal leg (107) oriented generally perpendicularly to a generally linear and laterally extending, upright combustion front propagated from the injection well (102). The leg (107) is positioned in the path of the advancing front. Oil upgrading catalyst has been emplaced along the horizontal leg. The production well (103-106) is maintained open, thereby providing a low pressure sink which induces the front to advance along the leg. The hot combustion gases react with the commingled oil over the catalyst to provide in situ upgrading.
