Abstract: An apparatus or device for determining the index of refraction of a fluid referred to or reduced to a predetermined reference temperature comprises a light source, light detector and means forming a bent light-conducting path between the source and the detector such that the intensity of the detected illumination represents the refractive index of the fluid surrounding the light-conductive path. According to the invention, the light source comprises an electroluminescent diode, e.g. a light-emitting diode of the LED type which has a temperature coefficient in conjunction with the temperature coefficient of the optical fiber which compensates substantially precisely for veriations in the temperature coefficient of the effective index and the fluid with which both the path and the LED are in thermally conducting relation, e.g. in direct contact.

Abstract: @ Insulated composite aluminium profile, a method and a device for manufacturing thereof. The composite profile comprises two separate profile portions (5, 6), provided with grooves (7). Plastic strips (8) engage the grooves in order to interconnect the profile portions and form an enclosed space (10) for an insulating plastic foam. The profile portions are placed in a fixture, which determines the dimensions of the composite profile and the plastic foam is inserted in the space in order to expand and cure therein. Thence, the profile is removed from the fixture and eventually rolled as to the outer rims of the grooves (7), which are deformed and thereby fix the plastic strip.

Title: An improved sootblower apparatus for use in a boiler and method of operating the same
IPC: F28G3/16
Filed: 1984-10-05
Granted: 1988-01-07
Abstract: A sootblower of the long retracting variety including a drive system (16) which simultaneously rotates the lance tube (12) as it is inserted and withdrawn from the boiler. A variable speed drive is employed to modulate the rotational speed of the lance tube in accordance with the projected distance of the lance tube such that the lance tube is driven faster at intermediate lance tube projected distances thereby optimizing the cycle time of the sootblower. The modulated rotational speed of the lance tube is maintained at all projected distances below the critical speed which varies as a function of projected distance and the sootblower type. By driving the lance tube at certain projected distances at a rotational speed above the critical speed for other projected distances, the translational speed is increased and cycle time reductions are realized as compared with the prior art wherein the lance tube is driven at a constant speed below the minimum critical speed. The lance tube speed may be varied upon retraction and operated at constant speed for insertion or vice-versa or the speed may be varied both on insertion and retraction, as the cleaning requirements of a particular application requires.
