Abstract: An improved method for repair of incore- instrumentation-housing and related defects in a nuclear reactor system involves three stages, each with ultrasonically assisted inspections. In the first stage, a defective incore housing is removed and the exposed area and aperture at the former location of the incore housing is ultrasonically inspected using an ultrasonic probe with a tiltable disk-shaped head that self-conforms to the local contour of the reactor vessel bottom. In the second stage, a weld buildup is formed. The reactor is then sealed and the weld buildup is machined to define an aperture therethrough. The weld buildup is then ultrasonically inspected with a second probe with a centering member that is stationary as the probe body is moved vertically relative to it. In the third stage, a J-prep is formed. A new incore housing is inserted through the weld buildup aperture. The new incore housing is welded at the J-prep. The J-weld is ultrasonically inspected using a third ultrasonic probe. The new incore housing is then connected to the incore guide tube with shrink couplings, and reactor activity can be restored.

Abstract: A surge detection device for quick and accurate detection of surge is presented and its application to a turbomachinery is demonstrated. The turbomachinery having variable-angle diffuser vanes (5) operates by regulating the angle of the diffuser vanes (5) on the basis of the sensors disposed on the pump body or pipes of the surge detection device. The onset of surge can be forecast by measuring the fluctuations in the operating parameter(s) over a measuring interval of time computed on the basis of the operating characteristics of the impeller (3) of the turbomachinery. The onset of surge is prevented by adjusting the angle of the diffuser vanes (5) in accordance with the sampling duration for parameter fluctuations over the measuring interval of time, and by adjusting the diffuser vanes (5) to maintain the operating parameter fluctuations of the fluid machinery below a threshold value of the turbomachinery derived from the design flow rate of the turbomachinery. Application of the surge detection device in combination with fluid flow guide vanes and blades of the turbomachinery enables full utilization of the potential capability of the turbomachinery.

Abstract: A passive element structure and method for a microwave integrated circuit reduces signal propagation losses. In one approach, a passive element (10) has an insulating layer (12) overlying a silicon substrate (14). A metal layer (16) comprising a signal line (18) and a groundplane (20) is disposed overlying the insulating layer (12), and at least a portion of the metal layer (16) contacts the substrate (14) through at least one opening (22, 24) in the insulating layer (12). The silicon substrate (14) has a resistivity greater than 2,000 ohm-cm, and the passive element (10) preferably carries signals having frequencies greater than 500 MHz. Signal losses in the passive element (10) are minimized because the charge density at the surface (15) of the substrate (14) underlying the metal layer (16) is significantly reduced. In one example, the passive element (10) is a coplanar waveguide transmission line.

Abstract: In a molded surface fastener, a hook (10) has vertical multi-step reinforcing ribs (13, 14) on opposite side surfaces of a stem (11), and it is therefore possible to make the hook-shaped engaging portion (12) adequately soft and to increase the rate of engagement with loops. Further, since each reinforcing rib (13, 14) extends to the curve (12a) of the hook-shaped engaging portion (12), it is possible to secure a predetermined degree of engaging force, despite the thin and soft hook-shaped engaging portion (12), unlike the simple reinforcing ribs of the conventional art.

Abstract: Hub brake for braking a hub (1) which is rotatable about a stationary axle (2) projecting into the hub. The hub brake comprises a cone (4) to be fitted so that it is stationary on the axle, a cone (5) which is slidable along the axle and is secured against rotation, an expandable brake jacket (6) which interacts with both cones, and a control element (11, 12) which is placed next to the slidable cone so that it is axially fixed and can rotate about the axle. The control element interacts with the slidable cone (5) in such a way that when the control element rotates about the stationary axle (2) the slidable cone is pressed into the brake jacket in the direction of the fixed cone, with the result that the brake jacket resting on the two cones expands and acts in a braking manner on the inside of the hub. The control element is lockable in a position in which the slidable cone (5) is pressed in the direction of the fixed cone (4), in order to keep the hub (1) blocked relative to the stationary axle (2).
