Patent CA-2425252-C (CA)
Title: Subsurface formation anisotropy determination with tilted or transverse magnetic dipole antennas
Inventor: TABANOU JACQUES R
IPC: G01V3/30
Filed: 2003-04-11
Granted: 2007-08-28
Abstract: Transverse or tilted magnetic dipole antenna systems are used for electromagnetic logging measurements to determine the anisotropic resistivity of subsurface formations. Combined measurements between transverse or tilted antennas, as well as axial antennas, are used to compensate for receiver antenna mismatch in the system. Some embodiments use model-based parametric inversion to estimate the anisotropic resistivity in the presence of invasion and shoulder- bed effects.

Title: Method and apparatus for a simplified primary air system for improving fluid flow and gas mixing in recovery boilers
Inventor: BLACKWELL BRIAN ROBIN
IPC: F23L9/02
Filed: 2003-05-29
Granted: 2009-02-17
Abstract: This invention improves gas mixing and combustion, gaseous fluid flow and control of the char bed in recovery boilers burning black liquor or soda liquor, requires fewer primary air ports than conventional methods and can reduce capital and operating costs. Some primary air is introduced as powerful principal jets, from two opposing so-called active furnace walls. All or most of the remainder of the primary air is introduced as smaller jets, called scavenging jets, which prevent char from accumulating in the furnace corners and, in some cases, between the principal jets and are in the same plane as the principal jets. The momentum flux of each of the principal jets is approximately double or more than double that of each scavenging jet. Some of the primary air may be introduced as central jets, from the remaining two furnace walls and located in the same plane as the other ports, or on a second, somewhat higher plane. The momentum flux of the central jets is less than that of the principal jets.

Abstract: An elongated substantially flat four-conductor moisture detection and location sensor is described. The sensor includes four parallel conductors laminated to a dielectric substrate. Two of the conductors are protected by a water pervious dielectric layer and form the water-sensing element. Two other conductors are covered by a water impervious dielectric layer and are used to loop-back one or more of the water-sensing conductors. Precise location of a water leak location is determined by connecting the four conductors to a resistance bridge. The design allows for the connection of a four-conductor cable to extend the monitoring and detection point to a convenient location without loss of location accuracy.
