Title: Mixing arrangement for atomizing nozzle in multi-phase flow
Inventor: MCCRACKEN THOMAS WILLIAM
IPC: B01F5/02
Filed: 2004-03-24
Abstract: The invention relates to an improved mixing arrangement for, primarily, moving bitumen in steam from sources of such bitumen and steam to a reactor or coker for further processing of the bitumen into petroleum products. The invention provides a main conduit connected to an atomizing nozzle mounted in a wall of the reactor and first and second conduits for flowing bitumen and steam respectively into the main conduit. The first conduit is angled relative to the main conduit at an acute angle of about 45° and the second conduit is angled relative to the main conduit at an acute angle of about 30°. The second conduit is positioned upstream of the first conduit by a short distance of about 23mm and may be angled radially relative to the first conduit by any angle, although a 90° angle is preferred. A flow accelerating nozzle is located in the second conduit adjacent the entrance therefrom into the main conduit. The arrangement of the invention improves the flow characteristics of 2-phase material flowing to the atomizing nozzle, reducing pulsations in the main conduit and improving the resulting atomization of the bitumen in the reactor.

Filed: 2004-07-15
Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing an amplitude value for use in controlling illumination of a pixel on a display, in response to a sampled sonar signal produced by an element of a sonar array. A pixel time associated with the pixel is found, the pixel time representing a time required for sound to travel a distance represented by the pixel, according to a range of distance to be viewed on the display. A sample point of the sampled sonar signal is then found, the sample point having a sample time nearest the pixel time. A delay value associated with the pixel is then found, the delay value including an array element delay value. A representation of a synthesized waveform is then produced, in response to the sonar signal, the representation comprising a plurality of sample points coinciding in time with the sample points of the sonar signal. An amplitude value representing an amplitude of the synthesized waveform at a time corresponding to the pixel time is then produced by finding an amplitude value of the waveform at a time value corresponding to the sum of the sample time and the delay value. The amplitude value is then made available for use in illuminating the pixel.
