Abstract: A rotor for an electric motor comprises a shaft, a commutator fitted to the shaft and connected to a winding wound around poles of an armature core, and a noise suppressor. The noise suppressor 40 has chip capacitors 44 connected to terminal portions 38 of commutator segments 32. The capacitors 44 have a common terminal 45 connected together to form a star connection via a ring formed from a conductive layer 42 on a board 41 or from resilient wire. The capacitors 44 may be soldered to the wire ring and to the commutator segments or may be held in recesses formed in the base of the commutator in direct contact with the commutator segments under resilient urgings of the ring to form a solderless connection. It is particularly suited to rotors using mechanical connection type commutators to form solder-free rotors.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for measuring the flow rates of each component of two-phase flow consisting of a gas and a liquid or three-phase flow consisting of water, oil and gas, including a first volumetric flow meter stage, and second and third momentum flow meter stages coupled in a series flow path with the volumetric flow meter stage and in which a velocity ratio between the gas and the liquid in the series flow path is maintained to be one. A processor calculates flow rates of the components of flow by solving volumetric flow and momentum or energy equations defining flow through the first through third stages utilizing a volumetric flow output from the first stage and momentum flux outputs from said second and third stages, and an indicator displays flow of liquid and gas or oil, water and gas components of the flow. To measure three-phase flow, a water-cut meter is provided to determine the amount of water flow, which is then used by the processor to determine the flow of the rest of the liquid. The second and third momentum flow meter stages can be implemented by two separate momentum flow meters or by a single momentum flow meter, such as a venturi flow meter having a venturi nozzle including pressure taps for obtaining at least two differential pressure measurements. In the event that the density of the liquid component is known, a single momentum flow meter stage is sufficient.

Abstract: A molten metal supply device capable of supplying molten metal with high precision to an injection sleeve of a die-casting machine, and capable of reducing molten metal leakage and damage to a molten metal conduit bridging between a holding furnace and the injection sleeve. The holding furnace is divided into a holding chamber and a supply chamber in fluid connection with the injection sleeve through the conduit. Both chambers can be selectively brought into and out of fluid connection by a stopper. First and second immersion bodies are immersibly provided to the chambers, respectively. The laser sensor detects a predetermined level of the molten metal. The first immersion body is immersed until the sensor detects the surface of the molten metal, whereupon the stopper blocks fluid communication between the chambers. By then lowering the second immersion body, molten metal is pushed out of the supply chamber and a predetermined amount of molten metal is supplied to the injection sleeve. The conduit includes a duct and a mouthpiece, The duct is provided by an inner ceramic layer, an outer stainless steel tube, a heat line wound over the stainless steel tube, and a mortar layer.

Abstract: A high speed modem for simultaneously transmitting both voice and precoded digital data signals over a single communication channel. The modem is operable to combine a voice signal with a precoded digital data signal for transmission at high speeds, high power levels and low distortion previously attainable by high speed data-only modems. The voice signal is processed using conventional data processing techniques to produce a voice signal and a control signal containing information relating to the coding of the voice signal. The control signal is multiplexed and mapped for transmission with the digital data. Selected bits of the multiplexed data are used to define the rotation of the digital data and to rotate the voice vector. The digital data is precoded to compensate for and minimize noise in the communication channel. The rotated voice vector and the precoded digital data are then combined and transmitted. At a remote location, the transmitted signal is received by a receiving modem and is filtered and separated to thus recover the individual coded signals. The separation of the coded voice signal from the precoded digital data signal is performed prior to reconstruction of the precoded digital data signal. The coded voice signal is then de-rotated. The coded voice and precoded digital data signals are then individually decoded to retrieve the voice and data signals that originated at the transmitting modem.

Abstract: An apparatus 1 for storing a multi-component cryogenic liquid such as 'liquid air' includes a storage tank 10. Headspace vapour 14 flows to an external condensation tank 26 and is condensed therein through indirect heat exchange with liquid being vented from the storage tank 10. The resulting condensate can then be re-introduced into the storage tank through a pressure building circuit 30 applied to the external condensation tank 26. In such manner, the pressure within the storage tank 10 is regulated and the composition of the liquid stored within the storage tank is held constant with some degree of consistency. The use of an external condensation tank allows prior art cryogenic storage tanks and dewars to be retrofitted to store a multi-component cryogenic liquid.

Abstract: An integrated gas turbine/air separation system is operated at or below full system load by feeding the air separation unit (39) with air from a dedicated air feed compressor (43) and optionally with extracted air (37) from the gas turbine air compressor (3). When the gas turbine air compressor discharge (5) drops below a selected pressure at part load conditions, the flow of extracted air (37) to the air separation unit (39) is discontinued and the air separation unit (39) operates at constant pressure supplied only by the air feed compressor (43). This mode of operation is particularly useful in an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power generation system and allows the design of the oxygen and nitrogen product compressors (51,61,67) such that the compressors operate at high efficiency during full load IGCC operation.
