[Also in Division F1] An air inlet assembly 14, used in conjunction with a gas turbine or other air consuming plant 10, comprises an air inlet 16, a generally annular passage 20 leading to plant 10 and a secondary opening 17, which receives 5% of incoming air and most of the entrained solid and liquid particles and which directs them through a secondary duct 22 at an angle of 45 degrees to the inlet axis. Duct 22 may communicate with an exhaust fan, discharging to the open, but in the embodiment shown a swirl separator 25 having radial vanes 26 effects centrifugal separation of the entrained particles while the remaining gas is returned by duct 24 to the main stream. When the assembly is used with a gas turbine the casing 15 may contain the starter motor thereof. The assembly is made of fibre glass, and is aerodynamically shaped to ensure streamline flow throughout. The inlet 16 may be of equal or greater cross-sectional area than secondary inlet 17. A flat plate 19, at the inlet end, directs heavy particles such as birds into the inlet 17. The passage 20 is of inverted U section at its inlet end but becomes annular downstream of the point where it is joined by duct 24. Instead of the circular configuration illustrated the assembly could have a generally rectangular cross-sectional form. An upstanding vortex generator 28 may be supplied to eliminate the "surge".

[Also in Division F2] An aircraft has a lift and propulsion system comprising at least one gas generator, a set of conduits 10 supplied by said gas generator and accommodated in a spanwise portion of the wing, Fig. 1. Each conduit 10 comprises, along at least one generatrix, thin jet discharge slots 22 and has a streamlined fairing 5 associated with it, each fairing being fitted with means for moving it between a retracted position in which it merges with the wing surfaces and an operative position in which, Fig. 10, a flow of air is induced in the gaps between fairings by the discharge of gases from the slots 22. The conduits 10 may be fixed, or free to rotate with the fairings in which case provision is made for axial expansion of the conduits relative to the fairings. The gas generator may be a gas turbine, or a hot gas turbogenerator with a blower upstream of the compressor of the turbogenerator, or otherwise. A plurality of interconnected generators may be used, and provision may be made for a rearward jet discharge nozzle. The gases from the generator may be fed to the conduits via a common manifold chamber and ducts, and said manifold chamber may be connected to the rearward discharge nozzle and to an intake which receives ram air by reason of the aircraft's flight. The slots 22 of conduits 10 may be formed by making each conduit in the form of a tube having holes in half its circumference, the perforated area being surrounded by a semi-cylindrical shell of greater diameter than the tube; or alternatively by notching each conduit along one generatrix thereof; or by making each conduit of two facing semicylindrical half shells of different diameters, the larger of which may be corrugated along its length. The conduits may be thermally insulated from the fairings.

Patent GB-615079-A (GB)
Title: Hydrolysis of polyvinyl esters
IPC: C08F8/12
Filed: 1946-08-23
Abstract: Polymers of vinyl esters of organic acids are hydrolysed with alcohols in the presence of guanidine carbonate.  The term "polymers" includes homopolymers of vinyl esters of carboxylic acids, e.g. polyvinyl acetate, and copolymers of these with other compounds, specifically vinyl halides, vinylidene halides, acrylic and methacrylic acids and their esters and nitriles.  The preferred alcohols are methanol and ethanol, the higher alcohols, e.g. propanol and butanol, resulting in slower reaction rates. In one method of carrying out the invention, the guanidine carbonate is dissolved in methanol and the polyvinyl ester added and stirred to produce a viscous solution which is kneaded while heating to reflux the alcohol.  The catalyst is destroyed by acetic acid and the methanol and methyl acetate distilled off. Alternatively, the catalyst is initially inactivated by saturating the solution in methanol with carbon dioxide.  On heating and kneading the mixture containing the ester, the carbon dioxide is driven off and hydrolysis then commences.
