Title: Internals for mixing gas flows in a cooling tower
Inventor: ZELLER MANFRED PROF DR-ING
IPC: F28B1/06
Filed: 1985-05-24
Granted: 1987-01-15
Abstract: It is known in cooling towers for the cooling air rising upwards from the heat exchange elements to be mixed with lateral gas flows by means of built-in swirl vanes which are arranged above the heat exchange elements. These swirl vanes are to be precisely positioned. They cannot be adjusted. Consequently, they are designed only for a single operating state. In order to avoid these shortcomings, the invention provides a cylinder 6 which is arranged above the heat exchange elements 4 and to which a gas flow RG can be applied laterally in a pinpointed fashion. Provided inside below the diffuser-like opening 7 of the cylinder 6 are vortex vanes via which the flue gas RG can be guided into the cooling air KL and can be mixed therewith. Furthermore, a central pipe 9 which can be sealed at the lower end is arranged in the cylinder 6. The vortex vanes can be covered by a shield. When the buoyancy of the cooling air is low, the central tube 9 is opened and the gas flow RG can rise centrally in the cooling tower 1 in a directed fashion, without the pollutants in the gas flow RG stressing the cooling tower walls 2. <IMAGE>

Title: X-Ray sheet-film cartridge of plastic having at least one elastically deformable cartridge part
Inventor: BAUER WALTER
IPC: G03B42/04
Filed: 1985-10-09
Granted: 1987-01-02
Abstract: An X-ray sheet-film cartridge of plastic has two cartridge parts which are connected by means of a hinge and of which at least one is permeable to X-rays and is elastically deformable. The said cartridge has a closure for releasably locking the cartridge parts, labyrinthal light-sealing elements between the cartridge parts, at least one intensifying screen in one of the cartridge parts and a foam sheet in the cartridge part for averting the X-rays, the said sheet being provided for compressing the film and intensifying screen or screens in the closed state of the cartridge. The said cartridge is designed such that the foam sheet (8) is surrounded on all sides by a sheathing (13), which has at least one opening (13a; 13b) permitting slow escape of the air during compressing of the foam sheet (8). This achieves the effect that the pressure-applying force during closing of the cartridge is adequate for compressing the film and intensifying screens and then reduces to a value by which the plastic parts are no longer distortingly curved.

Patent DE-4210495-C1 (DE)
IPC: B22D11/16
Filed: 1992-03-31
Granted: 1993-04-15
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of casting high-alloy steels on bow-type continuous casting plant, the molten steel being passed through a water-cooled mould from which a superficially solidified steel strand emerges and is cooled for further solidification by subjecting it to coolants, it is deflected in an arc over supporting rollers and is then bent back again out of the arc into the horizontal by a multi-point bending device. The invention envisages calculating the straightening force for the straightening of the arcuate steel strand from the high-temperature properties of the steel determined in hot tensile tests and the temperature profiles of the steel strand calculated from surface temperatures. A setpoint/actual value comparison of the calculated and the actually measured straightening force is used to regulate the casting conditions and cooling in such a way that the steel strand is treated in the gentlest manner possible in the straightening process, allowing surface cracks to be largely eliminated.
