IPC: G01F5/00
Filed: 1993-10-29
Granted: 1996-07-04
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/NL93/00222 Sec. 371 Date May 2, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date May 2, 1995 PCT Filed Oct. 29, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO94/10540 PCT Pub. Date May 11, 1995The flow rate of a medium flowing through a channel is measured by using a number of measurement sites along which the medium flows continuously at different velocities. The heating of the medium at the measurement site and the measurements of the temperature changes at the measurement sites are used to measure the rate of flow. Calibration information for the flow measurement for each measurement site is utilized to establish a rule which would include information about the measurement accuracy over the measurement range for each measurement site. The flow rate to be measured is established upon the basis of the measurement result of a measurement site which gives the greatest measurement accuracy according to the predetermined rule. The measurement of the flow at a measurement site comprises heating the medium during a first interval and during a second interval subsequent to the firest interval the temperature reduction is monitored at the measurement site. The flow rate is established on the basis of the temperature reduction.

Title: Zinc-alloy coated ferrous product resistant to embrittlement
Inventor: ALLEGRA LOUIS K
IPC: F01N13/16
Filed: 1980-12-16
Granted: 1983-02-24
Abstract: This invention is directed to an improved zinc containing metallic coated ferrous product, particularly sheet and strip, which is resistant to intergranular penetration by zinc and embrittlement of the ferrous base. Use of such zinc containing metallic coated ferrous product in elevated-temperature service, such as found with certain appliances and automotive exhaust components, is enhanced by the coated products of this invention. The resistance to embrittlement of the zinc containing metallic coated ferrous base, when subjected to elevated service temperatures, is achieved by the use of a high-phosphorus containing steel base. For a plain content steel base, a phosphorus content of at least 0.020% by weight, preferably at least 0.030%, and more preferably at least 0.039% was found sufficient to render such zinc-alloy coated ferrous base resistant to embrittlement by zinc. By use of such high phosphorus ferrous base, for the reception of a zinc containing alloy coating, an improved metallic coated ferrous product has been found which resists intergranular penetration by zinc and embrittlement of the ferrous base. Such coated product has extended service life at temperatures above about 450 DEG  F. (232 DEG  C.) and when restored to room temperature possesses a high degree of ductility.

Title: Hydraulic embedment of waste in subterranean formations
IPC: B09B1/00
Filed: 1991-10-25
Granted: 1993-07-15
Abstract: There is disclosed a method and apparatus for waste disposal by hydraulic embedment in a subterranean formation. A method in accordance with the present invention comprises the steps of drilling into stable geologic formations thousands of feet below ground, fracturing those formations, pumping a mixture of hazardous waste in solid, liquid, or sludge form and a selected transport medium into the fractured formations, and preventing migration of the waste. Although a suitable transport medium can be selected based on a number of factors, transport media selected in accordance with one aspect of the present invention prevent migration of the waste by reacting chemically or to either heat or pressure or both to become highly viscous or solid. In other aspects of the present invention, the method prevents waste migration by either pumping a fluid for sealing the fractured underground formation before the mixture is pumped or encapsulating the waste prior to mixture with the transport medium and injection into the fractured formation. Apparatus for carrying out the method is also disclosed.
