Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de localisation d'un défaut à la terre haute résistance dans un réseau de distribution d'énergie, sur la base de mesures d'intensité. Selon ce procédé, on mesure les variations de la tension homopolaire U0 et du courant homopolaire I0f de la ligne ou d'une partie de celle-ci, ainsi que leurs angles de phase. On calcule ces variations en fonction d'une moyenne à long terme (par exemple une période de 10 minutes). L'influence du courant à travers l'impédance homopolaire Z0f de la ligne saine est ensuite déduite des variations mesurées dans ledit courant homopolaire. Puis on choisit parmi les mesures d'intensité le courant correspondant à la ligne ou partie de ligne défectueuse présentant la valeur absolue d'intensité la plus forte et dépassant simultanément un seuil prédéterminé.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for coating foil comprised of nickel or a nickel alloy by sputtering a layer comprised of a metal compound on the foil in a vacuum. The foil is treated in an argon plasma with a pressure of 10<-3> to 10<-2> millibar, for a variable time with a variable rate, and with energy of the plasma ions. A chromium oxide layer or a layer containing chromium oxide is successively sputtered by means of a reactive magnetron atomizing of at least one target comprised of chromium or an alloy containing chromium. Said layer is sputtered with at least one atomization source in an argon-oxygen mixture with a pressure of 10<-3> to 10<-2> millibar. The operating point is constantly maintained in given boundaries and the foil is bonded in a defined thermal contact with a thermal buffer when the foil is being coated. The foil is coated until a given interference of a first or second order is reached on the foil. After the plasma treatment of the foil, a layer comprised of chromium or an alloy containing chromium is sputtered on the plasma-treated foil by means of a magnetron atomizing in argon with a pressure of 10<-3> to 10<-2> millibar.

Abstract: A cryogenic cooler and a dewar assembly including a cooled surface; a cooling surface for removing thermal energy from said cooled surface; and an adapter disposed between said cooling surface and the cooled surface for conducting thermal energy therebetween. A first fluid is disposed between the cooled surface and the adapter for conducting thermal energy from the cooled surface to the adapter. A second fluid is disposed between the cooling surface and the adapter for conducting thermal energy from the adapter to the cooling surface whereby the cooling surface remains free to move axially relative to the adapter at a temperature of the cooling surface at which the first fluid is susceptible to freezing. This allows for movement of the cold finger relative to the dewar and adapter, due to differential thermal coefficients of expansion or support structure motion, without adversely affecting the communication of thermal energy from the load. In the illustrative embodiment, the cooler is a Stirling cycle cooler, the first fluid is thermal grease and the second fluid is nitrogen. The cooling surface is a cylindrical cold finger of the Stirling cycle cooler and the cooled surface is an inner wall of a dewar assembly. The dewar is in thermal contact with a load. The adapter is disposed between the inner wall of the dewar and the cold finger. The adapter has an end cap and a cylindrical housing extending therefrom. The housing extends at least partially along a longitudinal axis of the cold finger. An insulator is disposed about the cold finger and the adapter housing. A spring is disposed between a proximal end of the insulator and a base of the cold finger to maintain a distal end of the insulator in contact with the adapter and the adapter in contact with the dewar.
